In every person's life, there will be times when injuries, aches and pains occur. Often, doctors will prescribe pain control medication to help you 'ride it out' while the body heals, but this seldom helps the cause of the problem, and may even result in cascading injuries from that one initial problem.
At the Sydney Myofascial Release Centre we use Core Body Therapy, a complete system of bodywork that treats musculoskeletal pain with myofascial release, deep tissue massage, stretching techniques, craniosacral therapy, trigger point therapy and PEMF Therapy. It is a grounded, scientific, structural approach to the body that also encompasses emotional and spiritual aspects.
I came to Chris for whiplash sustained injuries in my neck, head and shoulder area. After a few treatments I have seen a huge improvement as I can look side ways again and great releases in the whole delicate head,mouth and neck area on a musculoskeletal and fascial level. What I like about Chris's treatments is that it is a full body approach as he tunes in and listens deeply with his hands and his heart at everything that may be affecting the area of pain so other body parts can free up and you can feel yourself slowly letting go on a physical and emotional level as he unravels deep held restrictions, tension and stress patterns.

Craniosacral therapy is a gentle bodywork practice that employs a light touch to correct and harmonise the craniosacral system. The craniosacral system includes the bones of the head (cranium), the dura mater (the connective tissue surrounding the brain), the spinal dura (the connective tissue surrounding the spinal cord) and the sacrum. These structures house and protect the brain, spinal cord and cerebrospinal fluid. The goal of craniosacral therapy is to release and correct restrictions in the craniosacral system, to promote functioning of the central nervous system and flow of the cerebral spinal fluid.
Craniosacral therapy is very effective in the treatment of:
