Standards of Practice
CranioSacral Ireland sets clear professional standards to ensure that all registered practitioners deliver safe, ethical, and effective care.
Our Standards of Practice define the core principles, competencies, and values that underpin Craniosacral Therapy. These include:
- A holistic, non-manipulative approach that supports the body’s innate capacity to heal
- Respect for the uniqueness of each client’s process
- Clear boundaries, professional conduct, and client-centred care
- Commitment to confidentiality, informed consent, and inclusive practice
- Safe working environments and careful attention to hygiene and professional behaviour
- Ongoing professional development and self-reflection
- Safe and appropriate treatment of babies, children, and vulnerable clients
- Recognition of when to refer or seek support from other healthcare professionals
All practitioners are expected to uphold these standards in every aspect of their work, ensuring a consistent and trustworthy experience for clients across Ireland.
