"When you touch one thing with deep awareness,
you touch everything."
Lao Tzu
Quantum Craniosacral Touch (QCST) is based on the belief that the human body is a complex, interconnected system that possesses intelligence and memory at the cellular level. This innate wisdom includes knowledge of how the body should function optimally (homeostasis), awareness of any current dis-organization or imbalances, and the ability to heal itself from injuries or dysfunctions. However, disruptions in the craniosacral and fascial systems can impede the body's ability to fully recover on its own.
When the body is unable to overcome these obstacles, it naturally opens to receiving assistance from a highly skilled and cultivated Guide (that's you). In QCST, the emphasis is on honoring the body's innate intelligence and allowing it to inform the healing process. Rather than imposing external expertise, the Guide acts as a facilitator, supporting the body's natural ability to organize and heal itself. By working in harmony with the body's own wisdom, QCST aims to identify the root cause of imbalances and promote overall well-being.
Quantum CranioSacral Touch is a holistic healing approach that incorporates principles of quantum physics into the realm of healing. It is based on the idea that the body and mind are interconnected and that our thoughts and emotions have a direct impact on our physical health… to help individuals heal on a deep level, addressing not only physical ailments but also emotional and spiritual imbalances. The goal of quantum healing is to restore balance and harmony to the body, mind, and spirit, leading to overall health and well-being.
QCST promotes the body’s ability to self-heal, and can be effective for both children and adults. By using an educated and light hands-on touch, QCST can aid the body’s healing and self-organization system by releasing tension patterns, and balancing the nervous system’s equilibrium.
Everything in your body is connected through fascia, or connective tissue. The fascia functions as a web-like mycelial connection throughout the body that allows for stability, mobility, and forms attachment points for muscles. Over time, fascia changes are initiated by mineral deficiency, misuse or overuse, disease, stress, trauma, psycho-spiritual imbalances, damaging belief systems, or even genetics.
To remedy the effects of these fascia changes, QCST presents a gentle approach to the restricted tissue allowing the body to liberate old patterns that leads to softening, lengthening, less pain, with improved overall function.
