Our Hannah had torticollis with a 45 degree head tilt and a misshapen skull. Holding her head up or turning to the left was painful for her. Cari’s treatment has saved Hannah from months of therapy and a neck brace. Today Hannah can confidently hold her head up and turn from side to side without pain. We are very grateful for Cari’s expertise.

Cari has been blessed with a gift; my 9 year-old has been blessed with her ability to share that gift!   Craniosacral therapy has provided my son with the opportunity to experience calmness and relaxation within himself for the first time. We are beyond grateful for Cari and Craniosacral Therapy.

“My experience of craniosacral therapy with Cari Naftali was at once extraordinary and the most natural thing in the world. I’m not sure I can convey the level of trust I felt, putting myself in Cari’s hands. It was like the trust of a child who had always been well-loved and cared for. I had no anxiety whatsoever, just a quiet eagerness to be in her capable and loving hands. Perhaps Cari’s midwifery background telegraphed itself invisibly to me. Perhaps it was her great and palpable human warmth. Perhaps I was just ready. Or all these things and more.

The work itself is quite subtle. I knew something was happening because I felt light energies open up, not because there was any heavy-duty pushing, pulling or kneading. A sense of well-being began to spread through me, like a mist or a finely woven net. Memories and realizations did arise with this balancing attunement, and I chose to speak them aloud. So glad I did: Cari’s responses were affirming, comforting, and illuminating. Trust built on trust. I felt not only freed and loved, but also grateful for my own ability to be with what arose and understand it in a profound and releasing way.

Afterwards, I felt bright, like I was no longer holding in the light within me, but letting it radiate quite naturally. I felt happy, peaceful, centered, released-like my real self. My body felt great-but my heart also felt at peace, and my mind felt spacious; and my sense of well-being was so pervasive that I couldn’t have pointed to it and said, ‘There, that’s where it feels so good.’ Because it was everywhere….”

“I had two and a half months of almost daily headaches during pregnancy. After one session of craniosacral therapy with Cari, I was headache free for weeks! My pregnancy and my life are so much more enjoyable now that this amazing technique (and practitioner!) are part of it. I am so grateful.”

“When we  started the session I was seeing double out of my left eye. At the end of our totally delightful and relaxing time together, my vision was perfect again. When I went to the eye doctor he told me that my eyes were better than last time I had been there. Cari carries such a healing presence that her excellent craniosacral technique is almost secondary. Cari is a true healer.“

Dearest Cari,

Back in Boston I am thinking of you with much gratitude and peace. From the combination of my retreat and your treatment, today I feel more alive. My complaint of feeling mentally stagnant, struggling to focus and concentrate, has disappeared. Instead I feel calm, clear and focused on one thing at a time.

Many, many thanks,
blessings,

“Cari has a gift. She listens closely and patiently to what my body is experiencing and responds with an appropriate craniosacral treatment. At present, she is treating me for chronic migraines, which has greatly reduced my need for over-the-counter pain relievers. Cari is an amazing healer! I highly recommend her.”

“During the last week (after months of pushing to get our property to sell), I kept sleeping through my alarm, felt groggy/spacey in AM and could not focus in meditation. Wanted to let you know that my brain was different today thanks to your healing touch. I woke up easily before my alarm, felt clear headed and was able to focus during my one hour meditation. Your presence and touch helped my system reset. Thank you!”
