Cranio-Sacral Integration, Foundation, Second Edition Reviews

This foundation volume presents a unique integration of the wide spectrum of approaches to Cranio-Sacral therapy, providing practitioners and students with broad understanding of the discipline. -- International Therapist
This book fills the gap in CST texts - a clear comprehensive introduction to the work. -- Fulcrum Journal of the Craniosacral Therapy Association
A fascinating insight into Cranio-sacral work. This foundation text, written in an easy to read format for those training in Cranio-sacral Therapy, would also be beneficial for the Therapist who is not training in this discipline as it will give new and fresh meaning to 'reading the body through the hands'. -- The SEED Institute Newsletter
