Emily Ireland, CST

Emily Ireland facilitates new levels of healing for the body and mind. A craniosacral therapist and remote somatic healer, she assists in releasing a variety of physical disorders and emotional-spiritual blockages. Emily is an alumna of Sarah Lawrence College, Stella Adler Conservatory, the Kane School of Core Integration, and the Upledger Institute and has studied modern dance, functional anatomy, pilates and yoga for more than two decades. She also incorporates her training in methods such as Alexander Technique, Feldenkrais, and Body-Mind Centering. Emily’s teachers have been physical therapists, acupuncturists, and other highly skilled bodyworkers, and it was through her own experience of injury and recovery that she first entered the world of healing. She has therefore developed a level of skill that comes from a rehabilitative background and of an understanding of classical Chinese medical philosophy. Emily obtained her degree in Eastern and Western health sciences at New York College of Health Professions and was first introduced to craniosacral therapy in 2004 by Kelly Kane. She has since continued her training in this and other hands-on healing techniques such as visceral manipulation through the International Alliance of Healthcare Practitioners. Emily is currently in private practice, based in Manhattan.
