CranioSacral Therapy is a light touch therapy that can create dramatic improvements in your life. It releases tension deep in the body, relieves pain and dysfunction and improves whole body health and performance.
Few body structures have more influence over your health and well being than your central nervous system. Few body systems have more impact on your central nervous system than the CranioSacral system- the soft tissues and fluid that protect your brain and spinal cord.
Every day stresses as well as physical and/or emotional traumas can compromise the function of the central nervous system. If the central nervous system is adversely impacted, this can affect the performance of nearly every other system in your body. By freeing the central nervous system to perform at its best, CranioSacral Therapy naturally eliminates pain and stress, strengthens your resistance to disease and enhances your well-being.
Conditions that CST has helped are similar as those listed for massage therapy including arthritis, fibromyalgia, chronic headaches, TMJ, repetitive strain injuries, as well as neck pain, back pain, chronic pain, and respiratory conditions. We would add others: especially central nervous system dysfunctions, TMJD, PTSD, ADD/ADHD, plus it is also recognized as valuable for improving circulation of blood and lymph, relaxing tense muscles, reducing pain, improving flexibility, inducing general relaxation, restoring energy, improving sleep, and promoting healthy skin.
Many times CranioSacral therapy is turned to when other therapies have failed to make a difference.
