Easy five stars. I had my first session with Ravena this past week and it was heavenly. As a bodyworker myself and an unrepentant holistic treatment junkie, I've had all kinds of therapeutic work-- the proverbial good, bad and sadly ineffective. This session was something very new and wonderful for me. It was my first craniosacral session ever, and I'm still feeling the effects of it, still feeling dreamy and soft and energized and vibrant.

Ravena is a wonderfully competent, capable, confident practitioner. I had come into my appointment from a crazy hectic day, and the minute I stepped through the front door and into her calm and happy presence I felt relaxed and happy myself. The session itself was wonderful. Ravena was able to zero in on the exact areas where I was holding tension and where my body was feeling less than energized. She used quiet, meditative, very light touch and I quickly went from heart-pumping caffeinated go-go-go Kirsten to softly snoring Kirsten, lone resident of Blissland, pop: Me. As I left, she gave me some simple exercises for increasing energy and fertility (two issues I'd requested we address in my session) and sent me out into the world calm, breathing deeply, and unable to stop smiling at everyone I passed.

That smiley freak you passed in the Mission on Thursday? That was me. Thanks to Ravena.

I've seen Ravena for craniosacral treatment several times, and yep, that gal has a gift!  

Ravena is always professional, warm, grounded, and receptive.  I feel calmer just walking into her therapy room, and then I just follow that nurturing feeling into a sense of deeper and deeper relaxation while I'm receiving treatment.  The therapy itself is hard to describe.  The experience of being treated is quite subtle, but I've always found the after-effects to be deep and occasionally profound, physically and emotionally.

If you're looking for a craniosacral therapist, you've probably had someone recommend it to you for a particular ailment, or you're curious about it as another form of bodywork.  Either way, Ravena is a fantastic person to introduce you to this therapy.
