Craniosacral Therapy-About

Craniosacral Therapy, CST, is a gentle hands on technique that is performed by a licensed professional who has additional training  in craniosacral therapy. This technique focuses on he skull, spine and sacrum,  as well as the fascia and fluid which naturally surround the brain and spinal cord. These structures create  the  command center for the entire body and the surrounding structures which keep it safe and connected to the rest of our bodies.  

CST uses light pressure to gently improve mobility of the cranial sutures,  invigorate the bones of spine and sacrum, and release adhesions in the fascia and membranes surrounding. Working with these systems allows craniosacral therapy  to positively impact all systems in the body.  

A CST provider will “listen” to cues and follow the lead of the body’s communication to address the restrictions which are uppermost and which may not reveal themselves in the order which we initially expect. By listening to the bodies cues and moving through treatment without expectation, the opportunity to fulfill the true or underlying needs of the body can be realized more effectively.  

CST has been gaining attention as it has been used as a preventative health and wellness measure, maintenance tool for wellbeing , to address somatic conditions such as anxiety, and beneficial adjunct service for a wide range of health challenges and symptoms.
