About Natascia Fachetti.
Natascia is a Registered Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapist (BCST), member of the Pacific Association of Craniosacral Therapist (PACT).
She is currently assisting BCST Tutors and regularly attends Post-Graduate BCST Courses.
With her truly compassionate and non judgmental nature, Natascia has been particularly attracting clients who wish to resolve Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), grief, emotional and/or sexual trauma.
This is now her mayor field of interest and growing passion.
Natascia holds a profound reverence for the inner intelligence of our bodies and deeply acknowledges its healing capacity.
Naturally gifted with a high intuitive perception of the human system and the somatic memory stored at its cellular level, her expertise has expanded and refined through BCST.
Having been practicing complementary therapies for a decade, Natascia recognises BCST as the modality that best suits her holistic style of practice and the level of success she wants to deliver to her clients.
Although Natascia specialises on emotional imbalances, she continues to treat an extensive range of typologies and welcomes all ages, including young children and the elderly.
What is Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy (BCST)?
BCST originated in Osteopathy and has its roots in the discoveries made by Osteopath Dr William Garner Sutherland in the late 1800s.
A core principle of BCST is that health is always present in the body. The therapist typically looks for and encourages the forces of health to set the priorities of the session and to bring about natural adjustments from within the body’s own resources.
BCST is therefore a very profound therapy, which enables the therapist and patient to gain access to the root causes of many conditions.
Biodynamic touch is light, still and reverential, there is never any pressure, manipulation or force involved. Performed on a massage table, the client remains fully clothed.
The therapist is trained to create a calm, still and embodied presence, which enables the client to feel safe, supported and held. This sense of safety allows the brain to switch from flight or fight to rest and repair. It is in this state that healing and change can take place.
Clients seek treatments for an extensive range of symptoms which can include – but are not limited to – physical pain, emotional imbalance, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) ,fatigue, disconnection with my own body sensations, stress related conditions sleep, immunity disorders as well as difficulties with sleep and digestive issues.
BCST is gentle and suitable for all ages, including during pregnancy, after childbirth, with newborns, young children, adults and the elderly.
BCST and Emotional Trauma Integration:
Experiences that are too overwhelming or traumatic to cope with, can be stored in the system, locking the body in a “fight or flight” state, effects of this unresolved trauma can lead to illness and disease.
BCST works particularly well with trauma, by gently facilitating your body and brain to resolve held experiences, without the need to revisit the original traumatic incident.Working on the somatic memory and emotional charge stored in the body after trauma, BCST complements very well with talk therapies.

What Happens During a Session?
During the initial consultation, Natascia will allow some time for you to relax and feel comfortable. She will ask you some questions in order to gather some understanding of your situation and needs.
You will then be invited to lay down on the massage table (comfortable clothes are recommended). Natascia will offer you some cushions and a blanket, to help you optimise your comfort during the session.
Through deep skilled listening, Natascia will follow what your body requires and contact different areas of your body. A light, reverent and still feather touch is what you will perceive, no manipulation will ever be involved.
Each session is led by your system.This means that change will happen accordingly to your comfort, at a pace directed by your body. This avoids overwhelm or re-traumatisation, and the results are therefore long lasting.
Results start to be perceived after the first session, but a series of 3 to 6 treatments is generally recommended, in order to provide your body with a good opportunity for change and integration.
Once the desired outcomes are reached, treatments can be then diluted to monthly maintenance, followed by occasional sessions.
