Stillpoint
a moment in CranioSacral Therapy when the body settles into deep stillness — where healing can happen
Soma
from the Greek sōma: the body as it is lived and felt, not just observed — where sensation, memory, and experience reside.
Your body is the container of your history. It carries its own intelligence — this practice is built to honor that, not override it.
How you relate to yourself shapes how you relate to others and the world. What is painful or unresolved within you does not exist in isolation—it lives in the body and shapes how you meet everything else.
Supporting the places in you that feel stuck or burdened is not separate from the world we live in; it is part of how change becomes possible.
Stillpoint Soma creates the conditions for your body to finally soften.
“The wound is the place where the Light enters you.”
— Rumi
Hi, I’m Blake.
I offer gentle, hands-on therapy to relieve stress, trauma and chronic tension.
CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY
What is CranioSacral Therapy?
CranioSacral Therapy is a hands-on therapy that was developed by Dr. William Sutherland and has roots in Osteopathic medicine.
CST uses light touch to help release tension patterns in the body. Treatments focus on the CranioSacral system, which is composed of the head, sacrum, cerebrospinal fluid, and membrane encompassing the brain and spinal cord (the central nervous system).
CST can down-regulate the nervous system, which may promote deep relaxation and support the body’s innate capacity to heal. Learn More →
VISCERAL MANIPULATION
What is Visceral Manipulation?
Visceral Manipulation (VM) is a manual therapy that was developed by Dr. Jean-Pierre Barral.
VM uses gentle, specifically placed manual forces that encourage normal mobility and motion of the organs, their connective tissue, and other areas of the body where physiologic motion has been impaired. VM aids your body's ability to release restrictions and unhealthy compensations that cause pain and dysfunction. VM therapy re-establishes the body's ability to adapt and restore itself to health.
VM can harmonize and increase proprioceptive communication in the body to enhance its internal mechanism for better health. Learn More →
Testimonials
“To say that I’m grateful for the session I had with Blake is a definitive understatement.
Due to hyper mobility, I sustained a hip injury 3 years ago, and ever since then, I’ve had to navigate a subliminal but definitive level of chronic pain.
Upon arriving at my appointment, Blake ‘s presence alone already felt healing. He has such a palpably kind energy to him. It feels like he’s really arrived, and therefore, it gives one’s own system permission to arrive in turn.
Our session was akin to a sort of magic, and I left feeling more at home in my body than I’ve felt in a long time.
What’s been even more powerful is my body’s healing since our session. It’s been about 3 weeks since my session with him, and I’m struck by how little I now notice my hip pain. I only notice it in so far as to think, “Woah, where did it go?”
Honestly, I’m convinced Blake can work miracles. I’d recommend him to anyone. ”
“I came to my craniosacral session with Blake really needing to be held, and this space with Blake was exactly the medicine.
His presence is powerfully gentle and deeply grounding; he followed my body’s cues and let things unfold on their own time — so I felt safe to open.
I experienced emotional, embodied visions, felt completely supported, and walked away so full of love.
Thank you, Blake.”
“Such a beautiful experience. Blake’s warm and comforting presence created a safe environment. While discussing why I came, he listened so actively and what he shared back with me was deeply intuitive. I’m still thinking about it! I felt ultra relaxed yet with a lovely new awareness during the session. It was really interesting to feel how my body responded so positively to the technique. I could feel built up tension releasing and energy moving throughout my body— throughout felt so held and supported. I left feeling brighter, buoyant, and happy. I totally recommend seeing Blake! ”
