Craniosacral Therapy is a gentle,
hands-on method of evaluating and enhancing the functioning of a physiological
body system called the craniosacral system – comprised of the
membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surround and protect the brain
and spinal cord. Using a soft touch generally no greater than 5 grams,
or about the weight of a nickel, practitioners release restrictions
in the craniosacral system to improve the functioning of the central
nervous system. By complementing the body’s natural
healing processes, CST is increasingly used as a preventive health
measure for its ability to bolster resistance to
disease, and is effective for a wide range of health problems associated
with pain and dysfunction, including:
- Migraine and other Headaches
- Chronic Neck and Back Pain
- Colic/Autism
- Central Nervous System Disorders
- TMJ
- Traumatic Brain and Spinal Cord Injuries
- Scoliosis
- Learning Disabilities
- Chronic Fatigue/Fibromyalgia
- Emotional/Neurovascular Disorders
- Stress and Tension-related Problems
- Neurovascular or Immune Disorders
- Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
