ABOUT ME
Melinda Wells RCST BCST
I live near Tunbridge Wells with my lovely family and two dogs. I became interested in Craniosacral Therapy in 1998 when I witnessed the transformational effect it had on my newborn baby who was suffering with a number of issues at the time. I completed my initial 3-year training with the College of Craniosacral Therapy, qualifying in 2008. In 2017 I went back to college, completing the 2-year Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy training with the Craniosacral Therapy Education Trust, thus equipping me with both Biomechanical and Biodynamic CST approaches. I am registered with the CSTA, the leading accrediting body for Craniosacral Therapy in the UK.
It is my privilege to offer a safe and welcoming therapeutic space in which I work with people of all ages.
I invite you to take a look at the Craniosacral testimonial page.
Why choose a CSTA-registered practitioner?
Many people do not realise that in the UK almost all complementary therapies, including Craniosacral Therapy, are not subject to statutory regulation but rely on voluntary self-regulation. This means that if a practitioner is not a member of a reputable regulatory body, they do not have to meet any requirements in order to demonstrate that they are competent and safe to practise.
The CSTA sets the highest UK standards of training and ongoing development for its practitioners. These include: the length and scope of the initial training; requirements for continuing professional development and supervision; being bound by our Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice; keeping up-to-date with legal obligations. As a regulatory body, adherence to these standards is backed up by the CSTA complaints process.
CSTA-registered practitioners are listed in the CSTA directory and you can be assured of their commitment to meeting the CSTA professional standards.
