Craniosacral therapy is based on the belief that functions of the human system are maintained and integrated by a biodynamic force known as 'primary respiration,' or the breath of life. Found in the brain, spinal cord, and bodily fluids, this rhythmic pulse promotes healing and health. Written for students and practitioners but accessible to lay readers, this text presents the fundamental concepts and techniques of a method that redirects the cerebrospinal fluid to areas of imbalance, thus enhancing overall health. Volume One covers both the history and conceptual ideas fundamental to Craniosacral Biodynamics, as well as the more complex structural and tissue relationships.

Craniosacral Biodynamics: The Breath of Life, Biodynamics, and Fundamental Skills



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Sills has amazing vision, yet cluttered writing
I am new to the work of Craniosacral Therapy. I'm in the beginnings of a training program, doing some required reading, and this is one of the books.

Franklyn Sills is in love with what he does, there is no question about that. He writes with lucidity and sheer reverence for the forces of Life and how they unfold within is. At times his writing is quite moving and can actually take your breath away.

I believe he wrote this book with the intention to simplify and consolidate ... Read More



Rating:  out of 5 stars - A real gem
I love this book and the way Franklyn Sills expresses the osteopathetic and craniosacral principles with holographic theory and trauma skills. He very effectively interweaves models and principles associated with the Breath of Life and new models of working with shock and trauma. The emphasis on the fluids and fluid tides brings a balance to the more structurally oriented craniosacral texts. I am a psychotherapist and find the principles articulated in this book extremely helpful in working with shock ... Read More



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Disappointing...
Being a strong believer of Cranial Work, I was very excited to see a new book on the topic. However, I was disappointed that this book is basically just Sutherland's Cranial Osteopathy and Upledger's CranioSacral Therapy repackaged. It's very disappointing that as Cranial work is getting more and more accepted, so many authors are simply reinventing the wheel and calling it their own. The initial work of Sutherland and the subsequent developments of Upledger have yet to be substantially changed or enhanced ... Read More



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Trust in the Potency
Cranial Sacral Biodynamics is a wonderfully arranged book on the subject of Cranial Sacral Therapy which includes some excellent sections on Trauma Skills and clear illustrations of the techniques presented. Franklin's work marks a progression in the art of Cranial Sacral reading materials. Cranial Sacral Biodynamics is easily accessible to the beginner and will remind the most skilled practitioner of the essentials of this amazing technique. Most practitioners of Cranial Sacral work are familiar with the dedication ... Read More
