About Cornwall Craniosacral
Biodynamic craniosacral therapy by Doremi Hayward Vaardal, trained at the Karuna Institute, Devon.
Cornwall Craniosacral Description
My name is Doremi Hayward Vaardal and I am a Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapist working from my treatment room in Lelant and from Mudita House at 43 Morrab Road in Penzance. I trained at the Karuna Institute in Devon with Franklyn Sillls and graduated in 2012.
My journey to become a craniosacral therapist began as a client and I still attend my own therapist regularly to maintain balanced health. Craniosacral therapy is a gentle and non invasive modality that works to encourage the innate health and well being that exists within us all.
My focus is not on fixing or eliminating the symptoms my clients may feel but rather working towards allowing the clients own body to resolve the causes of these symptoms. Craniosacral therapy is a profound and gentle form of bodywork, it is able to address the client on both a physical and emotional level and as such can be extremely valuable in allowing fixed patterns within the body to begin to shift by working with the inherent wisdom within the system of every client.
I work by listening through my hands to the flow of fluids, the matrix of tissues and the scaffolding of bones that comprises the body. In so doing the clients body can show me areas of compression, torsion or coagulation and we can work together to allow space and stillness in order for these to release.
My commitment is to presence and compassion.
What to expect:
Each session lasts approximately one hour during which the client lies fully clothed on my treatment table as I place my hands lightly on them. During the first session with a new client I will take a case history and discuss any symptoms.
Cost:
Adult sessions are £40 and children are £30
Who can it help:
Craniosacral therapy is excellent for dissipating acute and chronic pain and symptoms that may have been endured for many years such as back pain and migraine. It can help to support those suffering through serious illness and treatment by providing space for the body to find stillness. It reduces stress and increases a well being and can help with low lying but ongoing issues such as insomnia, muscle and joint pain in addition to unresolved physical and emotional trauma.
Craniosacral therapy supports the nervous system as a whole by improving the flow of cerebral spinal fluid so that the brain and spinal cord are well lubricated - we all know what happens to our cars when they run our of oil!
Please note that craniosacral therapy is intended to complement, not replace, the relationship you have with your medical practitioner. If you have or suspect you may have a serious health problem, please see your doctor. Never disregard medical advice or delay in seeking it.
Reviews
So moved by this. The power of connection and touch, the power of holding space for someone in need. You do not have to be a therapist, you just need to connect on a being to being level 💛🙏
An insightful article about injury and chronic/long term pain.
Interesting and heartfelt article.
Shared from wonderful Louise Crockart, Arvigo therapist/teacher, wise woman, friend and colleague. So beautiful, so true.
Always wonderful to read first hand how CST can help recovery from injury 🙏
Interesting article and a good example of how CST can help not just long term issues but also improve general health and performance. This article quotes a pro American footballer:
“It’s a very subtle — and relaxing — experience,” says Williams.
The next game Williams played in, he noticed an immediate physical and cognitive difference: “The action slowed down around me but my reflexes were quicker. I had a really good game and felt fresher than I had in years.”
... I would love to see all sports teams using the work.

Wow - a mainstream Alien film being open about its references to conception and birth! Things are moving in the collective consciousness:
"Arrival is about how we plan the arrival of our children — how we create a space for them in our consciousness, even before we conceive. And to do this responsibly, we must first arrive at ourselves, and understand that Time — our past, present, and future — is all linked. What happened to our mothers and fathers affected us, and what happens to us affects our children, and so on. With that knowledge, we can clear away our psychological baggage, so that our children have a chance at true autonomy and happiness."
A wonderful course with my dear colleague Jane, if you work with birth I feel that bringing this awareness is essential 💛
