Meet Rebecah Ziegler, Craniosacral Therapist/Trauma Touch Therapist/Structural Yoga Therapist/Numinous Interpretations/Yoga Instructor
Craniosacral Therapy is a gentle, non-invasive, yet effective type of bodywork. This specialized approach focuses on the craniosacral system comprised of the brain, spinal cord, mininges, cranial bones and sacrum. This craniosacral system contains fluid, which moves with slight but perceptible rhythmic fluctuation. By using gentle pressure, tension in the body is reduced and balance restored.
Trauma Touch Therapy is an innovative somatic approach toward healing shock, trauma and abuse. The ten session series is client directed while using a containment model. With unlimited possibilities each session may include therapeutic movement and breathwork, specific application of touch modalities, awareness of body/mind characteristics, art, music, poetry and play, all creatively facilitated to empower the client. The Trauma Touch approach is an adjunct to psychotherapy in understanding and unwinding the cycle of shock, trauma and abuse.
Structural Yoga™ Therapy seeks first to relieve pain. Structural Yoga™ Therapy also takes into account the client’s personality, lifestyle, attitude, and stress level, and draws practices from classical yoga that can further enhance the client’s rehabilitation and overall well-being. Yoga practices that are typically used include movements and positions to alleviate pain, reduce inflammation, increase circulation, and realign the body, breathing techniques, relaxation training, meditation techniques, and lifestyle changes.
Prices for therapy sessions: $80 for 1 hour session, $120 for 1.5 hour session
