Sheila Kean

While working as a science teacher, Sheila became fascinated by complementary therapies following a treatment that completely changed her life-style. In response to this, she studied massage and then Craniosacral Therapy. Since 1986 she has had a busy practice in Stroud, UK. For many years she was a National Childbirth Trust teacher, working with couples prior to the birth of their children and her practice reflects this interest and experience. Sheila runs a massage school with her partner and has been involved as a teacher of Craniosacral Therapy since 1992, working in the UK, Canada, America, Australia and New Zealand. Sheila is deeply committed to imparting the simplicity and truth at the heart of this work. She aims to bring the wealth of information gleaned from her clinic practice into her teaching, equipping students to move into practice with confidence. She lives with her partner, has two children, spends her spare time gardening, walking her two dogs and going on holiday!

Heidi Lauber

Heidi Lauber has been practicing manual therapy as a licensed massage therapist for over 13 years. She has been especially interested in the fasciae from the time she studied at the West Coast college in Vancouver and has specialized her manual skills, knowledge and teaching capacities to this end. Her love for the fasciae drew her more deeply into a relationship with the intelligence of the human organism which she is perpetually amazed by. This led her to study craniosacral therapy with the Upledger Institute a decade ago. She continues to deepen her understanding of this work by studying biodynamic therapy with Dr. Michael Shea as well as with Body Intelligence Training. Heidi is licensed in British Columbia but lives and practices in Calgary, Alberta where she, her husband and their dog play in the mountains and the snow.
