Overview
The IEBC in Barcelona offers a professional course of 900 hours, leading to certification as a Therapist/Operator in Craniosacral Biodynamics.
The certificate is accredited by the Spanish Association of Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy (AETBC).
We offer a comprehensive teaching program oriented towards the Biodynamic model, covering the basic principles and concepts that allow the practitioner to connect with the inherent health of the organism and support it from within.
Training in Craniosacral Biodynamics is based on developing sensory perception through manual contact, in order to recognize the resource state of the system, focus on Underlying Health, and collaborating with it to restore the conditions disrupted by trauma, pathologies, and stress.
The art of listening with the hands is combined with knowledge of anatomy, physiology, and embryology, providing students with opportunities for personal experience and growth in a stress-free environment.
The development of the content and teaching methods for this training is inspired by the work of the creator of osteopathy, Andrew T. Still, the pioneering work of the creator of cranial osteopathy, Dr. William Garner Sutherland, and his student Dr. Becker, along with the integrative approach of James Jealous, Franklyn Sills, and the contributions and inspirations of Bhadrena Tschumi, Kavi Gemin, Cristina Ratti, Sarjan Surya Nolla, and Mª Angeles Paredes.
