CranioSacralSound came together after over 20 years of working in music studios (including Abbey Road Studios London, Metropolis Studios London, Sterling Sound NYC). As an artist and industry professional, I experienced how powerful sound is as a healing modality and wanted to share that with others. During that time I had a very old shoulder injury that was proving very difficult to heal until I had Craniosacral Therapy treatments. Not only did my shoulder get better I experienced deep relaxation and inner calm.

I began to study both modalities in depth with the Upledger Institute and the Sage Academy of Sound including studying with John Beaulieu, N.D., Ph.D. who is one of the foremost philosophers and major innovators in the area of sound healing therapies. After completing my training, I discovered how the therapies complemented each other and so I used them together in treatments and CranioSacralSound was born. To assist your body in healing and repair, I will either work with just Craniosacral therapy or a combination of Cranio and sound healing tools

I played a cleric in D&D over Summer holidays days in the 80s, and decided to become a healer in the real world after my experience during 9/11.
