About me
I'm a fully qualified Craniosacral Therapist working with adults and children who are experiencing a range of emotional and physical health-related issues, including headaches and migraines, shoulder, neck and back pain, posture, gastrointestinal disorders/IBS, issues affecting the nervous system and neurological disorders.
Craniosacral therapy can help alleviate symptoms associated with sensory issues, anxiety, pain, and more by using light contact with your body to assess your craniosacral system. By tuning in to your body's craniosacral system and tissues, I can identify restrictions that may be causing dysfunction and suffering; for example, a headache could be related to a pelvic issue.
Layers tend to build up over the years, which can ultimately lead to chronic pain, psychological problems and/or emotional imbalances. Craniosacral therapy can help to address health issues, enable free flow of vitality and declutter emotional blockages.
I offer in-person sessions in Basingstoke or home visits for those locally who cannot travel. If you have any questions, I offer a 10-15-minute telephone consultation. Please text or leave a message on 07552 603 602 or send an email: monikapancek.biz@gmail.com

During the session
- You might feel some sensations like tingling, twitching, vibrating, pulsation, warmth, coolness, or the arising of some memories and emotions. Your breath might deepen, and you might become very relaxed.
- You will be fully clothed and usually lie down on your back on a treatment couch (in some cases, the patient can sit on a chair, or lie on their side).
- I place my hands very lightly either on the head, feet, shoulders, sacrum bone, along the spinal column or other areas.
- I always ask for permission and make sure it is comfortable for you.
- I listen to your body and the craniosacral system, and I am being led by it.
- My calm presence and engagement with the craniosacral system support the release of physical and emotional tensions, stress or pain.
- It helps to regulate the nervous system and enhances the body's natural abilities to heal.
