Biodynamic CranioSacral Therapy (BCST) is a very subtle, yet profound “hands-on” bodywork treatment that honours the innate wisdom and internal healing capabilities of your body. This treatment uses light touch and the client stays fully clothed. Craniosacral therapy’s primary effect is on the nervous system, which then improves the function of all systems of the body, which also results in an overall sense of increased vitality, and enhanced mental/emotional wellbeing.

Through informed relational touch, Cora provides your nervous system with a sense of safety and connection, allowing a shift out of activation, and into healing and relaxation. Cora's hands are also listening to the subtleties of your body’s movements and rhythms, which allows her to provide support to the restorative processes unfolding in your system. This work acknowledges that your body is always promoting life and moving towards health, and that some of the protective mechanisms running in your system are no longer needed. Once your body accesses safety and resource, it can complete these protective processes and return to a state of homeostasis.

Dr. Jenna’s desire to become a chiropractor was one that stemmed from her own personal experience. At a young age, she broke her femur, leading to a noticeable difference in one leg length and a scoliosis of her spine.

Dr. Jenna saw first hand the power of chiropractic. With the help of her chiropractor, Dr. Jenna was able to dance at a highly competitive level.

Cora’s journey with CranioSacral Therapy began 2 decades ago. She volunteered to be a practice body for a massage therapist who had just taken a cranio course. After just a few minutes of touch-in at her feet, Cora’s entire body settled into a state of deep relaxation. It was like nothing she had ever experienced before, and it left a profound impression on her. Shortly after that experience, her mother was involved in an accident that included physical trauma to her arm and head. Upon discharge from hospital, she continued to have debilitating migraines and vertigo. Cora remembered cranio, and found a practitioner to treat her mom. She had a total of 3 treatments, and after the first treatment, there was dramatic improvement in her symptoms Overall, those 3 sessions were undeniably pivotal in her mom’s recovery from that trauma. Many years later, with her youngest child graduating high school, and facing an empty nest and a new chapter in her own life, Cora felt called to pursue certification in CranioSacral Therapy. This work has completely changed how she views Life, and Health, and the human Body, and has allowed her to connect deeply to the wonder and mystery of how we come to be, how we grow and develop, and how our body is always adapting and responding to maintain overall function. Every Biodynamic CranioSacral session allows her to witness the innate wisdom in our bodies, and how experiences that initially involved overwhelm become more fully integrated when the system has access to space and safety. We humans are social, relational beings, and the therapeutic contact of this hands-on modality communicates a sense of “you are not alone in this” which has a dramatic impact on the nervous system. Cora feels deeply honoured and humbled to be able to offer cranio experiences to others, and to witness clients coming into a deeper connected sense of their own body and vitality.
