biodynamic cranial
The definition and meaning of biodynamic craniosacral changes depending upon the person or institutions consulted. This definition morphs as each cranial lineage advances its curriculum, marketing endeavors and certification standards.
What is presented as biodynamic cranial work in Todd’s workshops is as simple and pure as it was originally shared with him by Bruno Ducoux, D.O. (France). With the biodynamic approach we learn to palpate the source of health within clients and then facilitate health’s intelligent expression throughout their entire being. This is the orientating foundation upon which the training curriculum has been developed.
Todd Jackson has studied both biomechanical and biodynamic approaches to cranial work with European osteopaths since 1994. Teaching since 1997, he encourages students with patience, lightheartedness and a generous amount of hands-on guidance. Class sizes are intentionally small and assistants are employed to ensure students confidently integrate the approach. Ongoing support is available after workshops via Supplements, Treatment Exchanges, Feedback Sessions and Mentorship. All workshops occur in Portland, Oregon unless otherwise specified.
