    Craniosacral Therapy in Hawaiʻi

    Craniosacral therapy is a light-touch bodywork practice developed in the mid-twentieth century by osteopathic physician John Upledger, built on the premise that subtle rhythmic movements of cerebrospinal fluid influence the health of the central nervous system. Practitioners use gentle, non-invasive touch — often no heavier than the weight of a nickel — to detect restrictions along the craniosacral system, from the skull through the sacrum, and encourage the body's own self-correcting capacity. The practice is often sought for chronic headaches, jaw tension, nervous system dysregulation, and recovery from injury or trauma.

    Craniosacral practitioners can be found across all four major Hawaiian islands, with notable concentrations in areas known for integrative and somatic work — on the Big Island, Maui, and Oʻahu in particular. Many practitioners pair craniosacral with complementary approaches such as somatic therapy or nervous system regulation, making it a natural fit for clients navigating long-held tension or post-trauma recovery. Sessions typically run 60 to 90 minutes and often take place in quiet private studio settings, with clients remaining fully clothed on a treatment table.

    When choosing a craniosacral therapist in Hawaiʻi, look for practitioners with formal training through the Upledger Institute or comparable programs, and consider whether their background includes somatic or trauma-informed frameworks — this matters especially if you are working through emotional as well as physical holding patterns.

    Kihei🌿 Maui· Accepting· In-Person
    CraniosacralMassage

    I've been a Licensed Massage Therapist practicing in the State of Hawaii since 1996. After 22 years of training with other like-minded experts, I've learned to share my experience through a combination of service and education. I attended the Maui Academy of Healing Arts in 1994 & then went on to work at the Four Seasons Wailea Spa. I continue my independent status with the Wailea hotels as a private practitioner. I am passionate about my work & as such I attended & continue to attend many expert workshops to hone my treatment of injuries skills. I have an alternative approach from most therapists in that I use techniques like CranioSacral (very subtle osteopathic energy work) to extremely deep tissue & myofascial release work to treat the whole person in body/mind/spirit in the most transformative way possible. Professionally Licensed & Insured since 1996, HI Massage Therapist License #MAT - 4221 HI Massage Establishment License #MAE - 1507 Insured by the American Massage Council Past Board of Director for the American Massage Assoc. Hawaii State Chapter Past Workshop Instructor of CranioSacral Therapy & Basic Orthopedic Massage Techniques I first experienced CranioSacral therapy after being rear-ended by another car. CST & SER were the only treatments that cleared out the trauma from the accident & healed my whiplash pain. I have attended over 10 CranioSacral & SER workshops led by the best teachers in the world. As a result I am the most experienced CranioSacral Therapist on Maui and the only practitioner of Somato Emotional Release Therapy. I've also taught beginning CranioSacral Therapy here on Maui. CranioSacral work is magical if your body is still holding pain from a traumatic experience in life such as car accident, a fall, sports injury to head or any other part of the body. When there is an emotional component to the trauma, the Somato Emotional Release (advanced CranioSacral) work is so powerful in clearing out the pain & trauma from the cells. Studies have found that each individual cell has its own memory of pain/trauma. These cells must release & re-pattern the pain/emotions etc. for complete healing of body, mind, & spirit. Regain your mobility and get back your life with my expert training in reflexology. With my advanced reflexology tool, I can break up adhesions & restrictions in your feet & toes. My reflexology is unlike other practitioners as it is extremely deep, therapeutic, & life changing. I also treat plantar fasciitis, ankle/foot/knee/leg/hip injuries & your pain can be eliminated for good. Ease Your Pain, Improve Your Game: I have ways to break down the arthritis in your hands to allow you to open & close your fingers again without pain. I can also improve your golf/tennis swing & rid you of tendonitis pain allowing you to enjoy your time on Maui more. Carpal Tunnel is curable with my expert orthopedic massage techniques.
