LET'S TALK ABOUT CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY...
Craniosacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle, hands-on method that evaluates and helps the functioning of the craniosacral system. This system includes the membranes and cerebral spinal fluid surrounding and protecting the brain and spinal cord. Additionally, connective tissue links this nervous system with all other body structures.
Based on the osteopathic philosophy, CST is a manual therapy that uses light touch to release tension in the brain/body and improve the functioning of the central nervous system. By releasing these tensions, it can relieve pain and tightness, realign the body’s structure, balance the autonomic nervous system, and support organ systems to function better.
Furthermore, the CranioSacral system includes the protective layers of connective tissue and cerebrospinal fluid surrounding the central nervous system. CST releases tension and restrictions within this system, which positively affects many aspects of one’s health. Additionally, it applies a light touch, helps release guarding, and relaxes stored injuries and emotions by tapping into the body’s self-healing capability. Therefore, treatments can be structural for healing from concussions or postural holding patterns.
In essence, Craniosacral therapy addresses a rhythmic system at the core of our physiology – the nervous system. This system follows a rhythm, and the body accommodates its pulse. Moreover, it is the home of the yogic prana and chakra system that flows between the head and hips. It is as essential, measurable, and tangible as our breath and heart rate.
