Cranio-Sacral
Therapy

Cranio-Sacral Therapy is one of the most celebrated holistic therapies in existence today.   It involves a very gentle touch, which is used for both assessment and therapy.  When providing CST, it is the intention of the practitioner to encourage the body’s natural selfhealing mechanism, its self-regulating capability. 

 

With a soft touch (about the weight of a nickel) the therapist can feel the rhythm, the rate and the amplitude of the cerebrospinal fluid, which protects the brain and spinal cord. By releasing the restrictions in the craniosacral system, which has been shown to improve the functioning of the central nervous system, as well as many other systems of the body (such as digestive, musculoskeletal, respiratory, circulatory, and more), and enhancing its flow one can enhance the innate healing power of the entire body.  CST has also been shown to help with the physical components related to such somatic conditions as post traumatic stress, depression and anxiety.
