Not at all. At your first session we will start with a consultation. We'll take time to talk about what you're looking for and answer any questions you may have.

You remain fully clothed and comfortably supported on a treatment table. The session involves gentle touch usually starting under the ankles, moving likely to under the sacrum and head. The body will guide the positions and each hold is negotiated with the client to ensure they are comfortable. The comfort of the client is at the forefront. Treatment is always gentle with no manipulation techniques applied. Sometimes emotions may rise as release happens, as the body is ready.

Generally 3 consecutive sessions can be most beneficial. This allows the body to unwind its layers and learn to orient to its health. Sometimes acute issues have resolved after a single session and chronic issues can benefit from multiple appointments. As the body's nervous system settles the body can return to its more natural and balanced state of health.

Comfortable clothing is ideal. You remain fully clothed throughout the session, so choose whatever helps you feel relaxed and at ease.

Everyone's circumstances are different. If you have a medical condition, are receiving medical treatment, or are unsure whether this approach is appropriate for you, please speak with your healthcare professional before booking.

BCST is beneficial for anyone looking to release deep stress or physical holding patterns. It is especially helpful for chronic stress and nervous system burnout, unresolved trauma or anxiety, tension headaches and migraines, general physical fatigue and joint or muscle tension. It can really help with general self-regulation due to its calming affect on the nervous system. It is also super beneficial for babies and can help with a variety of issues including toriticolis, birth trauma, colic, etc. Children benefit from it greatly as it can help with settling the nervous system.

It is important to keep hydrated with salted water after a session as the body has often released areas of tightness. We want the body to flush out any released toxins. After a session you may feel more relaxed, happier, sometimes tired and I have had an occasional client cry from emotional release. Everyone is different. A few clients who are still learning to be embodied may only notice a subtle felt difference.

Please provide at least 24 hours' notice if you need to change or cancel your appointment. If you have to cancel at short notice, please get in touch as soon as possible.
