frequently asked questions
How many sessions will I need?
This depends on what your goals are, what symptoms you suffer from, and how readily your system responds to this therapy. As a general rule, three to ten sessions will have a significant impact on most people’s health, and in some cases only one session can make a dramatic difference. Often, clients receive regular sessions for longer periods of time, followed by an occasional tune-up to maintain health.
What’s the Difference Between Massage Therapy and Bodywork Therapy?
Both massage and bodywork therapists manipulate their clients’ soft tissues to promote and maintain health. Though these practices have a great deal in common, bodyworkers tend to focus on pain relief and restoring body function. Massage therapists can also help clients meet these goals but place a greater emphasis on relaxation, stress reduction, and overall well-being.
Can I Stop a Session If I Feel Uncomfortable?
Absolutely! You are always in control of your session. Feel free to ask your practitioner to pause or stop if you’re uncomfortable with any aspect of this treatment.
Remember, by discussing potential issues with your therapist before they arise, you can help ensure a positive experience. Most practitioners interview their clients when they arrive to find out about their health histories and needs. Take some time to share any and all concerns you have, including any shyness about your body, worries about privacy and procedure, and—of course—your goals for the session.
With a little honest communication, you can enjoy a wonderful first session and set the stage for many more to come!
Are there any conditions where Craniosacral Therapy should not be used?

“I’ve been seeing Moana a few times now and she is so wonderful. She has strong intuition, is thoughtful and works wonders! Craniosacral is subtle yet powerful, and moves and balances the energy in our bodies. The first time I saw her, I was having issues with my hip and the second time, she naturally addressed issues in my shoulder. Both felt better in less than a week. Relax, focus on where she is holding you and let gooooooo. You’ll be so happy with Moana!” -Sara, Los Angeles
