CranioSacral Therapist Certification

Certification for Licensed Professionals and the Public

Who can become a CranioSacral Therapist Certification? 

If you live in Illinois, you do not have to be a Licensed Professional to also become a CranioSacral Therapist. But in some states, CranioSacral Therapy is regulated just like Massage therapy, therefore be sure to know your states regulations on CranioSacral.

Illinois is currently, a state that is exempt from the Massage Therapy Practice Act, which means CranioSacral is governed on it's own. 

 

Important: State regulations vary from state to state. It is your responsibility to know your state regulations. Sacred Journey Institute will not be held responsible for varying state regulations, and your courses will not be refunded. Sacred Journey Institute has been approved institution for continuing education through the National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork (NCBTMB). Sacred Journey Institute offers continuing education classes for licensed massage therapists and bodyworkers seeking new knowledge and exploring spiritual growth.

Learning the Shamanic Approach to Cranial Sacral Therapy

Sacred Journey Therapy (SJT) is a shamanic approach to CranioSacral Therapy. It is truly a holistic therapy that is very powerful and unique. It includes elements borrowed from Osteopathy, Massage, and traditional Cranial Sacral Therapy. SJT is widened by aspects of parapsychology, trans-personal and traditional psychology, studies of consciousness, physics, metaphysics, spirituality, and shamanism. CraniaoSacral Therapy has a psychodynamic approach of intertwining perception and intention with meditative use of the inner eye, inner ear, and empathic heart to communicate and heal the physical, emotional, mental, astral, and spiritual bodies. Teach deepening techniques for meditation and mindfulness, that they can use with their clients and themselves. Adding to a humanistic approach, we introduce new possibilities for exploring relationships on physical and energetic levels with an emphasis of working from the heart and intuition.

Cranial Sacral

Level 1

Laying the foundation; working from the heart 

This course introduces participants to scientific and emotional perspectives of the cranial system and to our intuitive approach to Cranial Sacral work. Using slides and dis-articulated specimens, the study of cranial anatomy includes an inspection of each individual bone, its movement potential in isolation and in unison with the other cranial bones and possible reflexive relationships with the body and mind.

On an experiential level, emphasis is placed on centering techniques, cultivating our inner peace, and opening our intuitive self to interacting with our partner’s cranial system instinctively. Each day includes closely supervised hands-on practice with a partner to help deepen one’s understanding of the work. On the final day, techniques presented and practiced for each individual bone are brought together in a basic protocol that may be used as a basis upon which to introduce basic cranial work into one’s practice.

Sacred Journey Massage

Sacred Journey Therapy; Following the Heart

There are times with our clients which transcend the ordinary, when shifts and changes happen seemingly without effort.  This rarely results solely from physical manipulation, but rather from a combination of skilled touch and a deep sense of connection.
Sacred Massage uses a combination Esalen massage, Cranial Sacral Therapy, Lomi Lomi massage and Lymphatic drainage techniques along with the principles of Sacred Journey Therapy.  The body is worked a s a whole, not in segments.  Not only is a physical connection made, but an energetic connection between therapist and client and often a spiritual connection between the client and themselves.

Using intuition and creativity, this soothing bodywork emphasizes nurturing and empathy, creating deeper states of relaxation.  The continuous flow of this massage will enhance intuition, magnify the senses and communicate with your entire being.  Feel the stress melt away as the healing mechanisms of the body begin to dominate, helping you find peace and harmony.
