My bio
My name is Sophie Nechama Picquot
With over 25 years in the field of health and wellbeing studying spiritual psychotherapy, herbology and holistic health at the Institute of Natural Health Consultants in Montreal.
Followed by 2 years studying and training as a teacher’s assistant in Biodynamic Cranio Sacral therapy. I was drawn to Biodynamic Cranio Sacral Therapy following a car accident in Montreal and being referred to an Osteopath who treated my whiplash injury with this gentle yet powerful healing technique.
During the course of my training in Biodynamic Cranio Sacral I learned and fell in love studying Embryology and Cranio Sacral. Working with pregnant mothers and post-partum mothers, earning a certification in Pediatric Bodywork techniques
This opened a whole new world of healing which I fell in love with.
In 2023 I began a training in France with Birth the Change, which led me to Somatic Healing and doing my certification with the Marie Mongon’s Hypnobirthing (the French chapter).
Marie Mongon’s philosophy of educating parents through self-hypnosis and relaxation techniques for a Natural Childbirth without fear or pain by welcoming the baby with gentleness, respect and love.
I truly believe to create a world of peace, harmony, love and joy we have to work on ourselves, change our limiting beliefs and move from fear to the expansion of love. This starts in the womb and through a gentle birth surround by love and respect.
“The first 1000 Days: The Foundation for Lifelong Health and Well-being”
“The first 1000 days are a sensitive period of a child’s development and security, which contains the foundation for the individual’s health and well-being throughout life.” Excerpt from the First 1000 Days Report – Where all begins
Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy
Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy is about connecting to the stillness within, thereby connecting to the source within all of us. Our inner intelligence, the healing wisdom inherent within each once of us is at the essence of Craniosacral Therapy. Connecting with that sacred breath that flows within us.
Out of stillness arises an impulse, perhaps a tidal motion as we sense in Craniosacral Biodynamics, a subtle hands-on bodywork practice evolved from osteopathy. This practice is inspired from the father of Osteopathy A.T. Sill.
As a practioner I settle my own body into relative stillness, and widen my perception to include my client's system. We listen quietly for very subtle bioenergetic rhythms, which we call tides.
