Every session begins with a conversation. From there we can assess which modality best suits your needs.

The primary treatment modalities offered at Origin Tide are:

Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy

A gentle touch therapy that works with the subtle rhythms of the body and engages the client’s own inherent healing capacity.

Acupuncture

A traditional Chinese healing art that utilises needles and moxibustion to restore coherence to the bodymind.

Which option best suits your needs?

Both systems work in similar and complementary ways. Both are capable of helping with a large variety of health conditions. However, the experience of each is different and we may be called more to one or the other depending on our nature and needs.

  • Craniosacral work is particularly useful for conditions of stress, trauma, pain, emotional issues and nervous system conditions. Based on the therapeutic power of gentle touch, it is a uniquely beneficial approach for the modern world, providing a counterbalance to the activity, restlessness and stressors of life with an emphasis on depth and stillness. It emphasises the innate healing intelligence of the body, thereby empowering the client’s own resolution of issues from within.

  • Acupuncture is a slightly more “directive” approach. It can be particularly useful for circulatory issues, fluid metabolism, pain conditions, nausea, and digestive issues. The profound insights of Chinese medicine enable the medico to work with the body in a traditional way, one that provides useful insights and enables the remedy of conditions from a perspective outside the modern medical framework.

Whether you come for one or the other, the approach is fundamentally the same:
to converse, listen and understand;
to seek new ways of approaching old problems;
to see illness, self and life in a new light;
to reorient to deeper and more wholesome parts of ourselves.
