Where Science meets Practice
The Integrative Craniosacral Therapy Academy (ICSTA) offers professional Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy training and workshops for practitioners. We don’t just teach a set of craniosacral techniques; we offer an integrated biodynamic mind–body training programme designed to address physical, mental, emotional, and integrative dimensions of health.
We offer both professional training modules and specialist workshops.

Book Me for Specialist Workshops at Your School or Institute
I offer in-person specialist workshops for schools, institutes, and training organisations wishing to expand their curriculum into body-based approaches to trauma, stress physiology, and nervous system integration. These workshops are especially valuable for massage schools, breathwork trainings, and for therapists whose work is primarily verbal and who wish to integrate the body to support the release of stress and tension.
Participants learn how to support integration through the body using gentle, safe, non-invasive touch.
No previous bodywork experience is required.
