Thank you for coming to take a look at my website. I hope that you find it interesting and useful.
My name is Sheila Kean and I have been a therapist since 1986. The two therapies I offer are Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy and Therapeutic Massage. You can find out more about them by looking on other pages of this website, and by following the links to my professional associations.
I see both of these therapies as tools that enable me to “listen to”, and interact with, people on a number of levels.
The Physical Level
Our bodies are the vehicles in which we move around our lives. Just like our cars they may need attention to keep them running sweetly!
The Emotional Level
Unlike cars, human beings have the potential to think, remember, reflect and experience life in a rich and diverse way. This aspect of ourselves is just as likely to have a story to tell, as our physical bodies.
As well as the physical and emotional threads that make up the tapestry of our being, our individual and unique presence will be composed of threads from our genetic, spiritual, family, astrological and cultural backgrounds. Each of these aspects deserves to be heard.
Attention to the whole person in this way allows for a breadth of symptoms, arising from many levels, to be acknowledged and worked with. My job is to use my therapeutic tools to assist my client’s body to notice how it is not functioning to its best ability, and then to enable them to use their natural self balancing and health promoting abilities to maximise their health and feelings of well being.
In short – I treat the whole person, not only a symptom or a disease.
Stop Press
Life has taken some interesting turns in the last few years, and I am now a full time carer for my husband. Knowing this work and all that underpins it has made the darker and more difficult times more understandable and somewhat easier to deal with. I still feel so passionate about this work and am glad that I can continue to offer sessions at home. Of necessity my availability is a bit more limited, but we can usually work something out :)
You are most welcome to contact me and have a chat if you would like to discuss your needs and discover if you would like to book a session with me. You will find the contact numbers on the Prices and Places page.
