This four-day advanced course will explore clinical skills to help with life transitions, grieving and letting go. We will develop skills to work with the elderly and chronically ill, and find ways to support the process of dying as well as those who are left behind. This workshop will provide Craniosacral practitioners with the opportunity to gain confidence and develop life-enhancing skills to support clients at these critical times.
