Craniosacral therapy is a gentle, hands-on approach that helps to correct imbalances in the entire body. This system consists of the membranes of the cranium (skull) as well as the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). The motion of the craniosacral system is palpated for restrictions in movement. Abnormal motion can lead to stresses in the cranial mechanism which can contribute to dysfunction and poor health.
The touch is very gentle and intuitive. The treatment appears very passive, but the effects can be powerful and profound. There are many conditions that can benefit from Craniosacral Therapy, such as:
- chronic pain and fatigue
- stress and tension
- depression
- headaches and migraine
- birth trauma and childhood ailments
- learning disabilities and autism
Craniosacral therapy is suitable for all ages, from newborns to the elderly and all ages in between. The patient remains fully clothed for the treatment and though the touch is light, the enhancement of the body’s self-healing mechanisms is profound.
