What it's about
Osteothai Sphère crânienne is an Osteothai course with David Lutt dedicated to the cranial sphere. The Lulyani school lists it in its calendar but has not published a detailed description of this course.
Osteothai integrates osteopathic principles and techniques into Thai massage. It is practised on the floor on a clothed person, with the hands as well as the feet, knees and elbows, and combines the long-lever stretches, energy-line acupressure and dynamic movements of traditional Thai massage with the osteopathic release of tissue tensions and mobility restrictions. It was created by the French osteopaths David Lutt and Arno L'hermitte. The introductory Osteothai course lists the approach to the craniosacral system and the Primary Respiratory Movement among the areas of the training.
Osteothai courses are open to practitioners with a solid Thai massage training, from any school, and a regular practice. It is taught by David Lutt from 4 to 9 October 2027 at the Maison d'Amis in Sainte-Cécile-les-Vignes near Orange. The course is residential: it starts at 18:00 on the first day and ends between 14:00 and 15:00 on the last, with teaching from 09:30 to 13:00 and 15:00 to 18:30 in between, in French and/or English. Tuition is €720 (€380 for a repeat). Accommodation and organic vegetarian meals are extra.
