Testimonials

"I went to Mark for help with my tinnitus. After a few sessions, not only did he help improve the ringing in my ears, I now no longer have neck and shoulder pain which was from a whiplash injury 10 years ago. Mark is a wonderful therapist and he is great at making you feel comfortable in a safe and secure environment. I 100% recommend him.
Thanks again, Mark, I am so glad I found you and I am eternally grateful."

"For the last 10 years or so, I have gone to Mark for Craniosacral treatments. Sometimes the treatment sessions have been subtle, engendering a sense of deep relaxation and ease.
Other times my body unwinding vigorously, my heart and mind exploring new safer inner lands.
Whatever and wherever the treatment went, I knew and felt profoundly safe in the hands of Mark.
A lot of physical and mental pain has let go because of these treatments with this excellent therapist"

"Mark is one of the best CST & massage practitioners I have experienced and will provide much needed relief and nervous system support after this wild last year. I have a long-standing invitation with Mark to again provide CST and massage on the residential Yoga teacher training programs I run and I highly recommend getting a treatment with him whenever you can"

"I started getting sinus infections about 5yrs ago. I found that I was getting them more frequently; they were getting more severe in pain & I needed antibiotics to get rid of them which involved taking sick leave from work. I have always had an anxious temperament but had never considered that stress could be associated with them.

I went to Mark for several craniosacral sessions. I found them amazing. Afterwards, my body felt physically lighter; my head felt less foggy & I used to have the best night's sleep, waking up feeling completely reenergised the next day. What I found extremely helpful, was the grounding exercises that he gave me to do at home. Whenever I felt a sinus headache come on, I made a conscious effort to do these exercises & it made a massive difference. Since attending Mark I have not had any further sinus infections or needed antibiotics. I credit Mark's sessions for this.

I found Mark was very personable & gentle in his approach; he was very easy to connect with & I felt very comfortable & confident in his care."

"I attended Mark's sessions because I had pain behind my eyes, I was getting a lot of headaches and generally didn't feel great in myself.

He worked using Craniosacral therapy and in a short time it improved my health, in the sense that both the eye pain and headaches reduced considerably.

Also, he realised that the discomfort I was feeling overall was due to me taking up running which I don't enjoy, and unfortunately running on hard concrete was jarring my neck as I ran. He recommended that I either only run on a soft ground such as grass or give up the running altogether for something else.

I decided to return to power walking & circuit training and I haven't looked back since. I'm much more comfortable doing this and also as a result of giving up the running my joints are no longer in pain and I am in much better condition.

I would thoroughly recommend Mark if you are considering Craniosacral Therapy, he's extremely approachable, professional and excellent at his work!!"

"I have gone to Mark several times this past year with pains in my shoulder & my hips and have got great relief after a treatment"

"I found call sessions with Mark to be hugely beneficial, some of our most profound sessions were over the phone. Mark is a skillful & caring therapist - during distance CST energies & life events came to the surface through sensations in the body and were present to work with.

Mark is hugely intuitive and his insights and work with these energies have made a huge difference in my life, giving me an increased sense of power & inner peace. I am truly grateful to him for this and would highly recommend distance CST with Mark to anyone. Thank you!!"

About Mark

About Mark

Short Biography

I am a CranioSacral Therapist, Bodyworker & Family Constellation Facilitator - I run a clinic in Sandycove, Dublin and also work out of another in Lucan.

I am curious by nature and while studying Engineering in University I began practicing an internal Shaolin Kung Fu style which sparked a fascination with the human body & mind which has lasted for 25 years.

After 10 years of martial arts I found my way into a deep exploration of yoga and how the body & mind are intrinsically linked. It was here, during a 3 month yoga teacher training, where my journey with CST began - receiving a single impromptu session released a major block in my life which I hadn't even known existed.

From that moment I was hooked and soon began formally studying a CST diploma in London. After graduating in 2010 I kept delving deeper into the nature of trauma and how it affects the body & mind - and most importantly, how to work with it.

Training & Growing

A diploma in Sports & Remedial Massage soon followed, which provided the tools to help alleviate & transform on the physiological level. However I still felt there was something missing to my understanding of what leads to lasting healing for more complex issues - where were these deeper holding patterns coming from?

My exploring led me to studying Visionary CST with Hugh Milne, working with shamans in South America, pursuing deep practices of embodiment & grounding, studying modern Shamanism in Scandinavia with Jonathan Horwitz & Zara Waldeback, examining birth patterns through Breathwork and integrating Biodynamic CST with Franklyn Sills before I dove deeply into meditation and silence.

This silent awareness of my essence finally allowed a much deeper understanding of the nature of the human mind, emotion-belief complexes and the effect of trauma to ground into my experience, along with finding a resting place between the dancing polarities of science & mystery.

With each step along the way my growing awareness has helped inform & ground my sessions and this continues to this day as I navigate areas of particular interest such as inter-generational patterns & family dynamics - I have recently completed a 14 month training in Family Constellation Facilitation under Barbara Morgan.

CranioSacral Therapy (CST)

CST is a holistic modality which combines the science of anatomical with the subtle awareness of rhythmic tides in the body. By listening to what the body itself presents as the path to greater vitality & wholeness it can be helpful in a wide variety of circumstances for anything from physical problems & emotional troubles to energetic issues, psychological complaints and even those on a path of deep transformation.
