Migraine is a common health condition, affecting around 1 in every 5 women and around 1 in every 15 men.

'After six craniosacral therapy treatments, scorings of the HIT-6 Questionnaire had decreased significantly for both groups, at points immediately after craniosacral therapy and one month after - our results indicate that craniosacral therapy could be considered as a potential therapy for migraine sufferers with the aim of improving quality of life.'

The wonderful Lulu Ferrand, ex CSTA Chair, is interviewed here -

'Healing through frequency: CST explained w/ Lulu Ferrand | #045 Mastering Change
Have you ever noticed how some stress seems to not just dictate your mood, but your whole sense of presence? That’s because, according to craniosacral therapist Lulu Ferrand, we’re operating on a spectrum of vibrational frequency.

On this week’s episode, Lulu speaks to us about how what we engage with, moment to moment, can raise or lower our sense of freedom, safety and connection.

She explains how she understands craniosacral therapy (CST) as working not only with the nervous system but also with the body’s subtle energetic field – helping people access states where old emotional and physical patterns can release. She emphasises that CST isn’t about ignoring or dismissing the difficult, lower-frequency experiences people may be living with; rather, it helps clients recognise that the more time they spend in lighter, more regulated states, the more they can be gently ‘pulled up and out’.

She also shares how even the smallest moments of beauty or presence – like ‘noticing that a particular flower is looking beautiful’ – can create meaningful shifts in the system.'

CST is unique. No other modality quite manages to bridge the space between body and mind or spirit, with such profound depth.

Margarita Bennett on 'Resonance and The Field' -

The Frequency Architecture of Human Emotion: Resonance

If the field is the fabric of reality,
resonance is the way reality speaks. Or at least that how I see it, live it.

Everything in existence vibrates— atoms, cells, thoughts, emotions, organs, memories, intentions, even silence has its own frequency. Notice it. Notice when you sit in a space how it feels, what you hear, what you sense.

To understand resonance is to understand how your inner world shapes your outer world, how your past shapes your present, and how your consciousness shapes the life you are living. I know this is a big statement but think about it. If Resonance and vibration are what makes our existence then this means it creates consciousness.

Vibrational resonance is what bridges the quantum field and the human heart.

Comments here from the wonderful past Chair of the CSTA, John Wilks - https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2025/dec/02/understanding-the-role-of-fascia-in-keeping-the-body-healthy

Fascia research is still in its infancy, but the implications for healthcare are considerable. As early as 2015, a conference at Harvard Medical School examined links between fascia, acupuncture and oncology; the lectures remain available online and underline how much more we need to understand about fascia’s role in medicine.

Manual therapists have long recognised the importance of working with fascia. Andrew Taylor Still, the founder of osteopathy, stressed its significance, and newer approaches such as the Bowen technique aim to improve hydration, proprioception and flexibility by engaging fascia gently but directly. One of the least appreciated aspects of fascia is its extraordinary sensitivity: it provides a constant feedback loop to the central and autonomic nervous systems, responding continuously to internal and external stimuli.

Often it is the gentler therapeutic methods such as the Bowen technique, the Feldenkrais method or slower forms of yoga that have the greatest influence on this remarkable network, which underpins the healthy functioning of the whole body.
