Craniosacral therapy and unfinished business: what does closing them mean?

In craniosacral therapy and somato-emotional release, the closure of unfinished business is a profound process of emotional release. It allows the body and mind to let go of tensions, traumas, or trapped emotions that were not processed at the time.

What is unfinished business?

These are unresolved emotional experiences such as traumas, internal conflicts, or losses, which are stored in the body in the form of muscular tensions, energetic blockages, or unconscious postural patterns.

How do craniosacral therapy and somato-emotional release work?

1. Craniosacral therapy

It is a gentle manual technique that works on the craniosacral system (membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that protect the brain and spinal cord). It helps detect and release restrictions.

2. Somato-emotional release (SER)

Developed by Dr. John Upledger, it is based on the body’s capacity to store emotional memories and release them in a safe and empathetic environment.

How is unfinished business closed during a session?

During the session, sensations, images, or memories may emerge. The therapist accompanies without judgment, facilitating the expression and release of the emotion.

  • Body awareness: the patient feels the area of tension.
  • Emotional expression: sadness, fear, or anger may appear.
  • Release: by expressing it, the tension begins to ease.
  • Closure: the patient experiences a sensation of relief or clarity.

How do you know if closure has occurred?

  • Sensation of lightness or deep rest
  • More balanced craniosacral rhythm
  • Spontaneous emotional understanding
  • Expressions such as crying, laughter, or sighs without forcing

A path toward emotional balance

The closure of unfinished business not only releases the body from tensions, it also opens the door to emotional well-being and self-knowledge.
