Humour, warmth and openness…
When I first came to see Paul for Cranial Sacral Therapy, I was not an active protagonist or 'agent' of my own life. On the contrary, my personal circumstances had overwhelmed me to such a degree that I was swimming against the tide daily, futilely extending my efforts and pushing on without getting anywhere.
Pauls' reception, humour, warmth and openness, carves out a space or a 'cavern' within yourself and without, that supports growth. This opening up of new ground provided me with the capacity for change. It was there all along but went untapped until I was given the opportunity to explore and share that space safely with Paul.
It's here that my perspectives shifted, physical tensions eased, and consequently my life's circumstances changed - massively - over the course of 4 months. The direct effect of Pauls' Cranial Sacral Therapy was to move things forward positively, without the need to push. With a better sense of acceptance, observance and awareness, it became possible to receive. Now my endeavours 'fit' with myself, with others and are succeeding! - for want of a better word.
Under Paul's gentle guidance, a common voice or thread is established between therapist and client, using wording that helps to connect body and mind. Paul works so intuitively that you hardly notice the work being done.
It seems that healing is most effective when done through the subconscious.
One day soon, I will wake up with the spontaneity, relish and enthusiasm for my day that I see in my 7-year-old daughter, where every day is a wonder and full of possibility. Paul has brought me closer to this state of being, through the gentle art of craniosacral therapy. He has removed the 'box' if you like and opened a door. My mind and body are so much healthier as a result. I can't recommend Paul highly enough.

I leave feeling more at peace with myself…
Paul has supported me through anxiety, panic attacks and other health issues. The sessions are a good balance of time to discuss anything that has come up that week and the cranio work.
It was very difficult for me to relax at the beginning but I have found Paul to be warm, reassuring and a good listener and now I look forward to the cranio sessions, finding them a release during my busy week and during stressful times. I leave feeling more at peace with myself.
He has provided me with links to other reading materials to supplement the sessions, alongside showing me techniques and other methods for managing anxiety.

Pain and anxiety diminished…
At all times Paul helped me feel comfortable and relaxed.
Usually it is difficult for me to relax, as I have the long term condition hEDS, (hypermobility Ehlers Danlos Sydrome)...so even lying still is usually difficult for me, due to pain levels and subluxations.
The course of Craniosacral treatments that Paul gave me have been wonderful and deeply relaxing on all levels. Not only did the sessions help my body and mind relax and pain levels diminish, I felt deeply deeply relaxed, mentally and psychologically, as if bathed and 'held' in a sense of ease. During treatments, I swiftly slipped in to a deeply relaxed mode, forgetting anything about time, place and worries.
As a result my pain and anxiety levels diminished, and once back at home, I was able to sleep more deeply. Even when I had pain, I could recall the quality and sensory experience of the treatments that Paul had given. I highly recommend Craniosacral treatments with Paul, as these sessions have helped me enormously.

The benefits were dramatic and profound…
I've been sharing with various people how much I was helped - the therapeutic benefits of the work were quite dramatic and profound for me. I came to you in a state that I can only describe as in terms of disorder - where everything seemed to be not working for me : physically and mentally - with a sense of losing touch with my vitality. I had joint/nerve pain and limitations on my physical activities. Since your treatment - All this has improved - and I have maintained my physical and mental well-being in surprising ways ! Thanks Paul
