Integrative Approach

Craniosacral Dynamics

Craniosacral Therapy is a restorative approach that supports the nervous system and the body’s innate ability to heal. It is rooted in working closely with the fascia and the cerebrospinal fluid along the spine.

Abdominal Release

Moves stagnation in the meridian lines in the core, and supports energy flow in the liver, colon, gallbladder, kidneys, spleen, and stomach. Assist in digestive issues and encourages elimination of toxins.

Native Intelligence

Rooted in ancestral practices, Chloe has learned from many indigenous elders and mentors from around the world. She integrated the practice of gathering all parts of the self (fragmentation to wholeness) by supporting the system to come into it’s aligned center.

"I came in carrying a wave of stress and by the end I felt much more balanced, grounded and regulated."

“I had a beautiful craniosacral session with Chloe and it was such a deeply nourishing experience. From the moment the session began, I could feel how tuned in and present she is. Her touch is incredibly subtle yet powerful.

Chloe has a remarkable sensitivity to what is happening in the body. She was able to perceive things on a very subtle level and reflect back insights about my state that felt accurate and supportive. I felt completely safe and held in her care.

The session helped me integrate a lot of things that had been moving through my life recently. I came in carrying a wave of stress and by the end I felt much more balanced, grounded and regulated. My nervous system softened, my mind became quieter and I left feeling a deep sense of relaxation and mindfulness.

Receiving this session from Chloe while she is pregnant made the experience feel even more special and sacred. There was such a beautiful nurturing presence in the space.

I wholeheartedly recommend working with her. If you are feeling called to receive a session with Chloe, trust that feeling and go for it!!! She is truly wonderful at what she does.” – Solarah, Pelvic Osteopath Specialist

"I haven’t slept like this in the last 2 years!"

“I slept soo good last night… I haven’t slept like this in the last 2 years!”

"I am still feeling the effects from our session (two weeks after). Sleep has improved overall."

“I am still feeling the effects from our session (two weeks after). Sleep has improved overall. I am not getting up in the middle of the night to pee, that is a huge improvement” 

"I felt blockages of suppressed emotions and feelings release and a lot of relief in my head, chest and neck areas."

“As a trauma survivor, I have been living with chronic pain that radiates from my abdominal region up to my heart, neck and right brain for almost 15 years.

Chloe, who is trauma-informed, a somatic abolitionist and deeply attuned to the systemic struggles of ethnic minorities in Singapore, facilitated a Chi Nei Tsang abdominal massage with coconut oil.

I felt blockages of suppressed emotions and feelings release and a lot of relief in my head, chest and neck areas.

I would highly recommend Chloe who has refined her practice through her ancient and indigenous roots.”

"it’s been so restful for my shoulders: slower thoughts and moments"

“i have been doing the movements and it’s helped so so much. i feel like i’m seated lower in my body and it’s been so restful for my shoulders: slower thoughts and moments. truly thankful for the sharing you did.” – Nurul, academic, Singapore

"I felt myself on a cellular level"

I felt myself not through the emotional level of my heart nor the mental level of my mind, which I am so usually accustomed to paying attention to — in this practice, I felt myself on a cellular level — as currents flowed through my veins from the tip of my toes through the entirety of my system. In a state of mindful stillness, I heartily felt much movement within.

I was humbled to realise all these cells and systems within my skin were tirelessly working to allow me this experience of life!  Moreover, what I am learning to do is truly connect with my body.

– Jolyn, Expressive Arts Therapist for Substance Abuse, Philippines

"I let go of control and listen to what my body needs."

I feel safe with Chloe. During the session, my body spoke to me in different ways. I let go of control and listen to what my body needs. That’s when magic happened.

"I’m more conscious of how I have unconsciously feared facing some difficult feelings."

As a person, Chloe is dedicated and thoughtful about her work and its place in our world. She’s part of and builds strong community with fellow healers, environmentalists, advocates and artists, and it’s wonderful to experience the collective deep rest/nourishment from their efforts.
In sessions she’s guided me to opening up a space, emotionally, energetically/spiritually, physically, to experiencing more difficult / unfamiliar emotions, her presence calming and grounding, for these new emotions to feel safe. I’m more conscious of how I have unconsciously feared facing some difficult feelings.
I’m grateful for Chloe’s soothing, attentive, caring presence; as well as her joy of building relationships with community and long-term clients, encountering each other again under new moons.

"I was able to gain new insight into my issues"

“Being new to Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy, I was surprised at how quickly Chloe was able to support me to relax deeply in the sessions. I felt calmer and more present after each session, and found that I was able to gain new insight into my issues. My breathing also became much deeper.” – W. Wong, Coach

"I feel more at peace and more alive, more embodied"

“To experience and feel very tangibly the healing effects of biodynamic craniosacral therapy has grounded and simultaneously expanded my sense of consciousness and connection with the universe. I feel more at peace and more alive, more embodied and more in the flow of life.”

This work supports the body’s inherent capacity for regulation and coherence — with particular attention to the nervous system as a relational and electromagnetic instrument.

Rooted in a biodynamic approach, the practice is one of listening rather than fixing — orienting to the forces of health already present within the body, and allowing them to guide the session.

Rather than imposing change, the work follows the body’s own priorities, supporting shifts that emerge from within its existing resources.

It holds a holistic view of the human experience — where anatomy and physiology are inseparable from the subtle, fluid, and energetic processes that sustain life.

Sessions are paced to support safety and consent, allowing held experiences to surface and settle without overwhelm or reactivation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Biodynamic Somatic Therapy (BCST) invites a settling of the nervous system through creating a stronger bridge between the mind and body by relating your current physical and emotional experiences to your body’s patterns. 

The session involves a conversation mapping the mind-body connection in aspects of your life, follow by a body-work session with gentle consensual touch and receptive communication, closing with a debriefing on the experience and ways to continue for long-term support.

The key components to this therapy is the presence and touch in creating a relational field between the therapist and client that allows for a sense of safety.

Safety invites a more spacious capacity for healing.

Touch is a language of listening to the body. Each palm has 17,000 touch receptors and nerve endings.

These receptors allow skilled therapists to sense specific subtle internal rhythms and movement of the varied fluids (tissues, muscles, nerves, neurons, bones, fascia, etc) in the body.

Our bodies are dynamic living systems and touch is a way of listening to that life force.

When a grounded, balanced, and regulated presence creates a safely held space for the recipient to receive; it allows for the potential to access a deeper sense of embodied awareness.

Given the demands of a modern urban lifestyle; we often experience disconnection between mind and body. Receiving touch can deepen and expand our relationship to our bodies.

People have experienced some of the following:

  • Feeling safer in their bodies, which leads to being able to feel safer with and around other people.
  • Release of restrictions and tensions in the body
  • Small subtle movements and adjustments (reorganising) in the body
  • Temperature shifting (cold to warm, healthy blood flow increase)
  • Deep sense of relaxation and relief
  • A sense of calmness and clarity to gain insights
  • Reduction of pain and aches in the body
  • Improved immunity or sleep
  • Better digestion and relaxed nervous systems
  • Heightened bodily awareness and connection
  • Better coping mechanism with stress
  • Experiencing less ‘threat’ or ‘hyper-vigilance’ in their daily lives. Often in the form of anxiety or panic attacks.
  • Being able to have stronger boundaries and a better sense of ‘self’. Often, this leads to less people-pleasing.
  • Softening of the aches, tension, and tightness in the body; that’s often chronic or returning pain. Leading to a more light-hearted experience of living.
  • Supportive aid for medical surgery or cancer recovery. Allowing the stress in the body to gently release.

If you have a body, you can receive bodywork.

It is especially effective for caretakers, people experiencing chronic pain in the body, people who want to feel a stronger connection with their mind and bodies.

For Mothers experiencing pre or post partum, this treatment is deeply effective. It also applies to infants and children.

This treatment is encouraged for people who experience regular patterns of chronic fatigue, insomnia, and anxiety; along with expressions of physical and emotional trauma that can be triggered from accidents, illnesses, intensive medical treatments (chemotherapy, surgery, etc.), psychological issues, anxious or avoidant relational dynamics, and more.

BST is a holistic and clinically effective therapy for the treatment of emotional, physiological, and medical issues.

It is supportive of creating a state of restoration by accessing and inviting the inherent capacity for the body to self-repair.

Through periodical BST treatments over time, a person can experience transformation through an increase in vitality, resilience, mental and emotional clarity, a changing of harmful patterns that encourage dis-ease, and healthier ways of relating to oneself and others.

Holistic health has values of preventative care.

Meaning, rather than waiting for a sickness or illness to grow worse or even occur; we treat the body to continuously come into balance.

We recommend 3 consecutive sessions for a more effect and deeper impact.

Long term maintenance is particularly supportive, the frequency would vary on a case-to-case basis.

You may reschedule up to 24 hours prior to your booking. Any later than that is chargeable at 100%.
