Continuing Education in Craniosacral Therapy: Advanced Somato-Emotional Release Course from the Upledger Institute
At Osteofuengirola we continue to commit to continuous training and excellence in our treatments. Recently, our osteopath Salvador has successfully completed the Advanced Somatoemotional course from the prestigious Upledger Institute, thus expanding our therapeutic capabilities to offer more comprehensive care to our patients.
What is Somato-Emotional Release?
Somato-Emotional Release (SER) is a therapeutic technique developed by Dr. John E. Upledger that is part of the Craniosacral Therapy approach. This methodology recognizes that the body can retain the physical and emotional effects of past traumas, accidents, or stressful experiences, manifesting as restrictions in tissues and dysfunctions in the nervous system.
The Upledger Institute: World Reference in Craniosacral Therapy
The Upledger Institute is internationally recognized as the leading authority in Craniosacral Therapy and related techniques. Founded by Dr. John E. Upledger, pioneer in the development of these therapeutic techniques, the institute has trained thousands of professionals worldwide.

Dr. Chas Perry: Prestigious Instructor
Our osteopath had the opportunity to train with Dr. Chas Perry, who earned his doctorate in Psychology from the International College of Los Angeles in 1983. Dr. Perry joined HealthPlex Clinical Services in 1994 as a therapist, where he uses Craniosacral Therapy and related modalities to facilitate health and well-being.
As an experienced instructor, Dr. Perry teaches several courses at the Upledger Institute, including:
- SomatoEmotional Release 2
- Advanced Craniosacral Therapy
- BioAquatic Explorations
Additionally, he serves as an active instructor in the intensive therapy program for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder of the Upledger Foundation for Vietnam veterans.
Benefits of Advanced Training
This specialized training allows our team to:
- Identify and treat more complex patterns of emotional retention in the body, providing a deeper and more effective approach to dysfunctions.
- Integrate emotional and physical aspects of treatment, recognizing the intimate connection between body and mind in the healing process.
- Develop advanced techniques for tissue listening and facilitation of the patient’s nervous system self-regulation.
- Provide a safe space for patients to process and release traumas stored in their body system.
