CranioSacral Therapy is a gentle approach for singers who want more ease and freedom

If you saw my CranioSacral Therapy demonstration, you may have noticed how even small changes in the body can affect the voice.

Singing asks a lot of you, and most singers are already bringing a great deal of care, discipline, and attention to their craft.

At a certain point, it’s not about doing more.

It’s about allowing your body to have a bit more space and support.

What Many Singers Notice

As you continue training and performing, it’s very common to experience:

  • Tension in the jaw, tongue, or throat

  • Tightness in the neck and shoulders

  • A sense of effort or pushing in the voice

  • Breath that doesn’t flow as easily as you’d like

  • The impact of stress or performance pressure

There’s nothing wrong with you if you feel this.

These are natural patterns, and they can shift with the right kind of support.

A Subtle Approach to Relieving Tension

Craniosacral therapy is a subtle, hands-on way of working with the body to help release tension (especially in the head, jaw, neck, and nervous system).

As your system begins to settle and soften, many singers notice:

  • A more natural, steady breath

  • Greater resonance and clarity

  • Less effort in producing sound

  • A feeling of more ease and connection while singing

These changes don’t come from pushing harder, but from your body being supported in a different way.

INTRODUCTORY CHICO STATE SINGER CST SESSION

  • 60-minute session

  • Focused on your voice and the areas that affect it

$65 Special (regularly $125)

Available through the end of April, for students who feel called to explore this further.

TAKE IT A STEP FURTHER…

While a single session can be meaningful, many singers find that working over a short series allows the changes to deepen and become more consistent.

If you’re feeling encouraged by what you noticed, this can be a supportive next step.

VOCAL FREEDOM SERIES

Experience less tension, more consistency and greater ease when you sing. Also, includes a simple technique you can use before singing.

3 sessions for $250

There’s something deeply meaningful in the desire to move and uplift others through your voice.

I would be honored to support you in letting your voice open more fully… So it can feel natural, free, and true to who you are.

To revisit what we explored in class or see how the work unfolds, I’ll be sharing a video of the demo on my YouTube channel.You’re very welcome to follow along there if that feels supportive.
