Session Logistics

Scheduling a Session

It is best if we speak by phone to set up an appointment.  My regular work days are Wednesday through Saturday, and I can be flexible with appointment times.  For purposes of calculating travel time, my office is located near the 405 and 10 freeways.  I will provide the address and directions at the time that we book your appointment.

Please plan to arrive just as your session is scheduled to start.  The telephones will be turned off during sessions, and may not be turned back on until a few minutes before your scheduled start time. 

I want to specifically recommend against scheduling a Cranio-Sacral Therapy session right before any important business meeting, or any other event for which you need to access left-brain functions with rapid response time.  This particular modality works with the central nervous system, which includes the brain, and it takes a few hours for your system to integrate the work.  You will generally experience improved brain function by a day or two after the session. 

Preparing for Your Session

Please wear loose, comfortable clothing that allows full freedom of movement.  Please, no tight jeans.  If you need to come straight from work or another appointment, feel free to bring something to change into once you arrive.  You will probably be most comfortable during the session if you're not too hungry or too full.  It is generally a good idea to have water in your car for after your session.  You might also want to bring a journal.  

After Your Session

Depending on the nature of your session, you may want to give yourself some time for integration.  I like to suggest a trip to the beach or a park or the Santa Monica mountains to be out in nature for awhile.  If that is not possible, it's still good to give yourself some quiet time.  If you are experiencing so much energy moving through your body that it is uncomfortable, walking along the beach with your feet in the water is great, or you might want to take a bath with a cup of sea salt in the water.      

24-Hour Cancelation Policy

I have a 24-hour cancellation policy.  If you need to cancel your session with less than 24 hours notice, payment in full is still required.
