Barbu Panaitescu, RCST-Craniosacral Therapy, Coaching & Remote Healing, Portland and Hood River

For starters, the location was easy to access and directions were clear. I was a bit early and appreciated having a cozy couch I could wait on. As for the session, I found Barbu to be incredibly skilled and appreciated his approachfrom the get-go, safety, history, and consent were addressed. I always felt safe, with options, at willand benefitted from his patience and astute sensing. I've been exploring various somatic bodyworkers for a short while, so feel like I'm beginning to have some familiarity with various approaches. Overall, I enjoyed the biodynamic craniosacral session and look forward to coming back.

Barbu is an experienced and attuned healer. I sought him out for craniosacral therapy while recovering from an injury and period of hospitalization. His work helped rebalance and nourish my nervous system in gentle and effective ways. The reviews are right, hes also a very kind and present person :) Im grateful for the support and highly recommend his practice.

I have heard multiple functional doctors talk about the benefits of Craniosacral Therapy and thought that it would be a good fit for me. After thorough research I came across Barbus website and with no hesitation made an appointment as soon as possible. First impression it was will this really work? This technique that is noninvasive and I might say quite relaxing left me feeling like myself again. I dont exactly know how it works, but it does. Each time I live Barbus office I feel like my whole body and mind are in tune and aligned ( I know it sounds cliche, but it is true!) Grateful to have found such a wonderful therapist like Barbu! The whole experience is 10/10.

I visited Barbu to treat an old injury to my right side of my head that really clogged up my sinus, lymph, ear and brain on that side. After visiting him a few times I have felt a lot more energy and flow on that side and more of a stereo - left/right balance overall. He has been great to work with and will continue to work with him in the future as needed. Highly recommended!

Barbu is a great listener and not only hears my words but does a great job of listening to my body during a therapy session. His gentle support has been helpful in recovering from automobile accident injuries, and also processing "stuck" emotions I have not worked through that have been impacting my nervous system.
