About Me

Insa Höppner

SETTING THINGS IN MOTION WITH HANDS AND EXPERIENCE

With my hands, I offer the body time and space to move, to set things in motion, and to find balance – physically and emotionally. With my experience, I support pregnant women, mothers, children, and families in managing difficult situations. I continue to find this work powerful and energizing – for me as a practitioner as well.

MY PATH TO CRANIOSACRAL BODYWORK

Many years ago, I experienced firsthand how powerful craniosacral bodywork can be. I had been experiencing pain for quite some time until I received craniosacral treatment. The pain stopped and never returned. “I want to be able to do this,” I told myself.

At that time, I was in training to become a physiotherapist, which I completed in 1999. For almost 13 years, I worked in this profession with a focus on neurology. But I always kept the idea of learning craniosacral bodywork techniques in mind.

In 2008, I made it happen: I began training with Wolfgang Rühle. Since 2011, I have been certified in craniosacral bodywork.

My Focus

Families, pregnant women, and children

At some point after completing my training, I signed up for an advanced seminar on working with pregnant women, infants, and children. By then, I was a mother of two myself, and on the way to the seminar, I thought about my own pregnancies, my children’s births, and the challenges of everyday family life. “Don’t I need distance from all of this rather than integrating it into my work?” I asked myself. “What am I doing here?” As soon as the course began, I knew: This is my calling. Exhaustion, postpartum depression, worrying about the children – I’ve experienced all of this myself as a woman and mother. This is precisely why I can especially support pregnant women, children, and families with my work.

Since then, I’ve continuously pursued further training in working with pregnant women, infants, and children. In recent years, I’ve attended seminars including prenatal experience and birth with Dr. med. Angelika Schultz, treatment of pregnant women and children with Dr. Joelle Aimée Toulouse, and treatment of children and families with Joachim Lichtenberg.
