Practicum required for course credit.

This class occurs over 3 weekends:  April 4-5, May 3-4 and June 7-8, 2025 and is taught by Terry Scruggs, LMT. All weekend days must be attended for course credit. 

This is a forty-two hour course of training in which the students refine their skills of palpation while learning the ten-step protocol of craniosacral therapy (Hugh Milne approach with some Upledger), myofascial release, advanced unwinding, and somato-emotional release.

Course Description: Craniosacral therapy is a subtle intent approach to releasing and balancing physical, emotional and somatic imbalance within the body. On the physical level, it focuses on releasing restrictions in the fascia of the abdominal, diaphragm and chest segments, and restrictions in the reciprocal tension membrane lining the skull and the spinal column, to normalize the volume, flow, and movement of cerebral-spinal fluid within the system. Although the movements employed are quite subtle, and the pressure of the work is delicate, the results can be profound in the treatment of a range of injuries and chronic conditions including headaches, neck pain, sinus headaches and chronic congestion, and back and hip problems, among many others.

The work is performed on clothed clients, and is very powerful in addressing touch issues for clients who are recovering from trauma or abuse. The energetics of intention and presence are stressed, since the somatic-emotional connection is central to the work.

What to Bring:  Please bring a set of sheets, face cradle cover and personal blanket for each day of class for your personal usage. Craniosacral is clothed bodywork and no lubrication is needed. You may want to bring note-taking supplies and a class manual is provided. Massage tables are also provided. Dress in comfortable clothing appropriate for giving and receiving work; Please do not wear jeans.

Only drinks in covered cups are allowed in the classroom. A one-hour lunch break will be taken midday. You may bring your lunch or eat at one of the many restaurants located nearby.
