What is CranioSacral Therapy (CST)?
CranioSacral therapy is a gentle, hands-on approach to healing that focuses on the craniosacral system, which includes the bones, membranes, and cerebrospinal fluid that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord. This therapy aims to identify and release any restrictions or imbalances in the system, thereby enhancing the body's natural healing processes and promoting overall health and well-being.
During a CranioSacral therapy session, the therapist uses light touch to evaluate the rhythm and movement of the cerebrospinal fluid and identify any areas of tension or restriction in the body. The therapist then uses gentle techniques to release these areas of tension and encourage the body to heal itself.
CranioSacral therapy can be effective in treating a wide range of conditions, including chronic pain, headaches, migraines, stress and tension-related disorders, and neurological and immune system disorders. It is a non-invasive, safe, and gentle therapy that can be used alone or in combination with other treatments to promote optimal health and wellness.
