The nervous system is important because it is the overarching control system of your body, including for muscular and body movement, organ functioning as well as metabolic processes. It is through the nervous system that we communicate with others and the outside world.
So keeping your nervous system functioning optimally and free of restrictions helps your whole body to be healthy and stress-free. Science has indeed confirmed that stress can contribute to many illnesses and conditions: allergies, digestive problems, ulcers, cancer, depression, anxiety and other emotional conditions have all been linked to the effects of stress.
This is because when we're stressed, part of our nervous system is activated into a 'fight, flight or freeze' state. Hormones are released that affect our heart rate, breathing, digestion, as well as our emotional and mental wellbeing.
Using Cranial Sacral and Somatic techniques, I'm able to help 'reset' this activated nervous system response and facilitate adjustment back to a calm, balanced state and improved wellbeing.
