A Highly effective approach to help you unwind at the deepest level
At Spirit & Body Massage, our therapists Linda and Melissa bring the deeply restorative art of Craniosacral Massage to clients from Prescott, Prescott Valley, Chino Valley, and beyond. This soothing, body-centered therapy invites your nervous system to unwind, your body to self-correct, and your mind to rest in stillness. Whether you’re seeking relief from headaches or TMJ, support after trauma, or simply a profound sense of calm, our spa offers a serene space for you to heal and recharge.
What is Craniosacral Massage?
Caraniosacral Massage (sometimes called CranioSacral Therapy) evolved from osteopathic medicine and the pioneering work of Dr. William Sutherland. Unlike traditional massage that focuses on muscles, this modality works with the craniosacral system — the bones of the skull, spine, sacrum, the membranes around the central nervous system, and the flow of cerebrospinal fluid.
Our therapists use a gentle, listening touch to attune to the subtle rhythms and tensions within your body. Rather than directing or forcing change, they offer a calm, neutral space where your body’s innate intelligence can naturally restore balance. The work involves light, intentional hand placements on the head and along the spine.
Why People Love It
Clients describe Craniosacral Massage as feeling deeply relaxing yet surprisingly powerful. Many drift into a meditative state during the session, noticing waves of soft movement, warmth, or emotional release. Because the technique works directly with our nervous system and connective tissues, results often ripple through your whole body, not just the area touched.

Craniosacral Massage Frequently Asked Questions
How is craniosacral different from a regular massage?
Traditional massage targets muscles. Craniosacral work addresses the membranes, bones, and fluids surrounding your central nervous system using a very light touch.
What does Craniosacral Massage feel like?
Most people feel a gentle, soothing touch and may drift into a meditative or sleep-like state. Some notice warmth, tingling, or gentle waves of movement as their body releases tension.
Do I need to undress for the session?
No. Craniosacral work is performed fully clothed. We recommend comfortable, loose clothing.
Will one session be enough?
Some feel relief after one visit; others benefit from a series to address chronic patterns. We’ll discuss what’s best for you. Most of all, we suggest that you listen to your body. You will know if your session was beneficial and if craniosacral is something that you want to work into your wellness plan.
Is it covered by insurance?
We do not bill your insurance, but we’re happy to provide a receipt for HSA or FSA reimbursement if applicable.
