CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY
CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle, light-touch modality that addresses the whole body by releasing tension and promoting relaxation. Stress and strain are absorbed by the body and over time can affect the tissues, and potentially the membranes of the craniosacral system. Cerebrospinal fluid protects and cushions the brain (and spinal cord) from injury, assists with delivering nutrients and removing waste/toxins, and maintains chemical balance and intracranial pressure.
By releasing tension or restrictions in the connective tissue (fascia) between the skull (cranium) and sacrum (triangular shaped bone at the base of spine), the craniosacral system can restore fluid balance. Such releases can allow the body to relax and make self-corrections, thus reduce pain, stress, and promote overall health and well-being.
CranioSacral Therapy mouthwork and SomatoEmotional Release techniques may be incorporated into sessions based on the individual needs of the client and the body's presentation during each session.
Most individuals are able to receive CranioSacral Therapy, however there are situations or diagnoses that it would not be recommended. Please go to the FAQs page for details or call the office with any questions.

Stress and strain are absorbed by the body and over time can affect the tissues, and potentially the membranes of the craniosacral system, including the skull (cranium) and sacrum (triangular shaped bone at the base of spine). By releasing subtle restrictions in the connective tissue (fascia) surrounding organs, muscles, and bones, the craniosacral system can restore fluid balance. Such releases can allow the body to relax and make self-corrections, thus reduce pain, stress, and promote overall health and well-being.

WHAT IS CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY?
