WHAT IS CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY?

Craniosacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle yet profound hands-on therapy that helps the body release restrictions that lead to pain and dysfunction. Its focus is on the craniosacral system, made up of the membranes and fluid that surround, protect, and nourish the central nervous system.

​

Every day your body endures stresses and strains that it must work to compensate for. Unfortunately, these changes often cause body tissues to tighten and distort the craniosacral system. These distortions can then cause tension to form around the brain and spinal cord resulting in restrictions. This can create a barrier to the healthy performance of the central nervous system, and potentially every other system it interacts with.

​

Using a soft touch generally no greater than 5 grams, 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 medical problems associated with pain and dysfunction.
