Cranio-what?

I just finished writing an article on craniosacral therapy. If you're wondering what the heck THAT is, you are not alone. I didn't have a clue what it was either, until just recently. I did some research, one interview, and experienced a treatment myself to find out about it. (It's definitely nice to be assigned to write about pampering, relaxing sorts of things!)

Anyway, to end the suspense, craniosacral therapy is a gentle, light touch bodywork modality which is performed on a clothed patient. So if you want the affects of a massage, but aren't a big fan of deep pressure or getting, as we say in the South, "nekkid", this is the therapy for you! I found the treatment to be VERY relaxing and would recommend it for anyone.

If you want to know more about it, you'll just have to read my article. You do know that you can subscribe to the Ocracoke Observer, and get a monthly newspaper fix of your favorite island, don't you? If that's news to you (pun absolutely and mercilessly intended), pick up an Observer next time you are on the island so you can fill out the subscription form (after you read my fascinating article, of course!) If you won't be there for a while and can't wait, I suspect Linda and Jamie will take your subscription request even if it's not on an official form. They just need your name, mailing address, phone number, and a check or money order for $24 (no, they can't bill you, you've gotta send the money now) for a full year subscription (9 issues). Send all of the above to Ocracoke Observer, PO Box 427, Ocracoke NC 27960. And happy reading!
