  CRANIO BASICS: Reclaim Your Genius  

PEIRSMAN
CRANIO BASICS 
Online

Conscious touch can physically alter
the chemistry in your body,
bringing the most evolved aspect of your human brain to the forefront. 
Join Etienne in this quest and reclaim
the Genius you've always known you are.

THE QUEST

In 4 days you will be empowered to give 2 full Cranio sessions.
The effects of having this power of human connection reawakened is an amazing journey into
self transformation, synchronicity, realignment, and an integration of your full potential
as you begin to use every part of your brain maximally. 

DAY 1

YOUR UNLIMITED POTENTIAL

Another word for wisdom is clarity.  Using touch consciously you flood our body and the person receiving Cranio with oxytocin, making it easy to access NoMind and connect to your Midline, a place of total clarity. There within lies your endless energy and unlimited potential

DAY 2

MAXIMUM SPACE FOR YOUR BRAIN

You are perfect. Your brain is perfect.  Cranio allows  maximum space for your brain to function maximally and the possibilities are endless.  Etienne makes learning about Cranial bones and other seemingly difficult subjects easy and fun.

DAY 3

CRANIO SESSION 1

Between matter and space is where human life is possible, the place you can meet yourself as a perfect human being unfolding. The first Cranio session is all about opening up closed spots in the body so your life force can move freely.

DAY4

CRANIO SESSION 2

In the second Cranio session you learn about the Cranial bones that surround the brain. When you relax the muscles and tissues around them, they allow your brain to have space. The natural rhythms of the CranioSacral fluid can express with ease and your body rebuilds a connection with the intelligence that guides your stem cells every night. 

You ARE what you always knew you were, a GENIUS

And not just a Genius, but also a perfect human being

CRANIO

Human touch stimulates oxytocin, the “love hormone” that gives you the sense of oneness and connection. Cranio functions through oxytocin to reach a place of NoMind. From there you let go of physical tension, unresolved emotions, excess baggage. Your brain can now reach the maximum space it needs, and with maximal space, it can reach its maximum potential You reawaken the genius within you. Clarity is a given and guaranteed. This is true self empowerment! Come join in on the fun.

ETIENNE

Etienne Peirsman came to Cranio in a non-traditional fashion. After a a staph infection left him with nearly 20% kidney function, he found that preparing to die brought him the clarity of total silence. In a remarkable turn of events, he was able to heal his own body, was first introduced to Cranio, during an immersive meditation and bodywork training. 

Etienne describes Cranio as the closest thing to that wonderful silence he found during his near death experience, and from that time, 31 years ago, it became his life's passion.

BASICS

NoMind is the starting point to connect with your Midline. Conscious touch is so easy. Once you start practicing it, it will take over. Total feeling takes over, flooding both your body and the person receiving Cranio with Oxytocin. The feeling of being one with nature, with animals, with trees, with stars, with the sun….that feeling for the body is a chemical. Hand placements are simple and the whole class is tailored to be an enjoyable experience that unlocks the door to reaching your unlimited human potential.

What Students Say About Etienne's Course

Write your awesome label here.
Your Cranio school, your way of teaching is amazing because it's not the usual school imprinting, drilling people's heads with information. It's very fluid, it's very dynamic. [...] You gave me a lot of tools that are the basics of CranioSacral. The capability to be silent. The capability to stop and listen. The capability to feel. To heal in a certain way.

I think that Etienne's teachings are so invaluable and very, very rare. [...] Even though it was a course of Cranio, I got so much more than just Cranio. [...] I experienced a whole spiritual awakening in the classes. [...] What was very interesting after the course with Etienne is that I could use these messages and the experience and the tools that Etienne gave, not only on the table, on the massage table, where I'm doing sessions with clients. I could use them actually in my yoga classes, in my meditation classes and on one-on-one coaching that I do.

Etienne just feels to me like I'm, just him being who he is, I'm so lucky to have found him as a teacher. That he's one of the true masters in this area, and that it's so extremely valuable to learn from him that I really need to be taking advantage of this opportunity. Definitely just in the areas of healing and spirituality encountered a lot of different teachers and his humor and his humbleness, his realness, his incredible knowledge and wisdom just really draws me in.

Cranio is an ever evolving study of the human experience

and that makes it alive.

this class is a class of mystery

spontaneity

intuition

of things that are YOURS

Touching, with loving care is what makes us human

"No matter how screwed up things may become, the original you is still intact.
You can reach your original potential again and again and again. You can reach it every time." ~Etienne
Freeing yourself and reaching your true potential is a choice not only for a great life, but also for a peaceful death. When the time to die comes, what best to be fulfilled, not longing to have more time to let go and mend things of the past. The time to thrive is for now and forever.

“This is the start of our online program, accessible all over the world.
I will be there guiding everybody who wants to learn about this.
It is not just a program to become a practitioner. This program is for you.
To open up your whole being.
Self empowerment is a guarantee that comes out of my own experience
of teaching for more than 30 years. Humans touching humans consciously.
Just that connection is enough to remember who you are.
Play. Enjoy. That's the main thing with this class.
It is simple. So turn it also into a joy.
And you will notice the people that you touch,
you will really touch them,
and they will touch you.”
~ Etienne Peirsman

Frequently Asked Questions

I've never done bodywork, can I take this class?

Absolutely! In fact, the less experience you have, the better. The course is very easy to follow. One of Etienne's talents is to bring humor and kindness into every subject. He values simple language and is interested in connecting with anyone that has a sincere desire to know and enjoy Cranio. Many Peirsman Cranio students are  yoga and meditation enthusiasts, or simply individuals with an interest in a deeper sense of connection and self betterment. This course is also for you if you are a reiki practitioner, acupuncturists, hypnotherapist, physical therapist, chiropractor, naturopath, or other alternative medicine practitioner who is looking to fulfill education requirements and/or add something new to your practice.

Can I truly learn Cranio online
(don't I need to be there in person)?

Etienne's unique style of teaching Cranio goes beyond hand placements. The lecture parts of the class are an amazing resource to take online because you can reference them again and again as needed. For the section of the class that is about giving Cranio sessions, you will need a friend, partner, family member or client to practice on. We provide a sheet with the full sequence for each session that you can use as reference when starting off. Soon the sessions will feel natural and you will be able to sink into them with ease. Practice is the key to it all. And you will be able to connect with Etienne through a live Q&A session and by attending any in-person classes in the future. 

What is NoMind?

NoMind is a term Etienne uses to describe the space you enter when oxytocin floods your body and you are able to stop thinking. Similar to what your body does every night when you go into deep sleep, Cranio induces a place of stillness that is ideal for your body to experience renewal. Etienne values the space of NoMind as a way to connect to your Midline where true clarity and wisdom reside. 

How soon can I practice?

The class is designed to last 4 days. After these 4 days you will be able to give 2 full sessions immediately. If you plan to charge for your sessions, you can begin with a rate of $85-$125 per session. Please be aware that some states require a license to touch, in which case you need to be a licensed massage therapist, chiropractor, osteopath, etc. to charge for Cranio. This is a list of States that don't have this requirement:   Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Iowa, 
Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Vermont, Wisconsin, Wyoming. For other states check with your local offices. 

How is Peirsman Cranio different from other schools?

Etienne incorporates biomechanical and biodynamic methods into his own unique style of teaching Cranio, rooted in the Midline. His emphasis is allowing your mind to take a vacation so you can truly feel what the person's body needs in that specific moment. He veers away from complicated medical terminology and incorporates good humor and storytelling to deliver his knowledge about Cranio and our human potential.
