I am Sarah Cottle, a Diplomate Certified Craniosacral Therapist, a Certified Lymphedema Therapist, and a State Licensed Massage Therapist. I was trained in CranioSacral Therapy at the Upledger Institute, Lymphedema Therapy at the Academy of Lymphatic Studies, and Lymphatic Drainage Therapy at the Chikly Institute.

I love Craniosacral Therapy and Lymphatic Drainage Therapy treatments because I have seen how adults and children with complex physical and emotional issues can be helped enormously by these therapies.  Achieving an optimal balance of the body systems through gentle techniques to ease restrictions and somatic emotional release techniques, benefits development, pain levels, stress management, nervous system problems, circulation issues, swelling, the immune system, and helps the body to detoxify much more efficiently.

I currently have a private practice in Scottsdale, AZ where I work with adult and pediatric clients with a range of concerns, such as neurological problems, physical and emotional trauma, back and joint pain, lymphedema, and problems caused by a disruption to the lymphatic system.

Prior to having children, I worked in the financial world. I have a BA from London University in German, worked in banking for 6 years in London and Frankfurt, and I have an MBA majoring in finance from Loyola University, Chicago.

I am passionate about this work because it seems that it is often a missing link in people’s healing process. Emotions that are locked in our cellular memory often hold us back from a more complete physical recovery. On a lighter note, minor adjustments using the craniosacral system as a guide can balance our nervous system and leave us free of pain.
