CranioSacral Therapy

What is craniosacral therapy?

Craniosacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle, hands-on method of evaluating and enhancing the functioning of a physiological body system called the craniosacral system. The craniosacral system is comprised of the spinal cord and membranes which works on the central nervous system and therefore throughout the mind and body or holistically. 

By complementing the body’s natural healing processes, CST is increasingly used as a preventive health measure for it’s ability to bolster resistance to disease and can be effective for a wide range of medical problems associated with pain and dysfunction including: 

Lack of energy/ME, Anxiety, Tension, Insomnia, Depression, Migraine Headaches, Chronic Neck and Back Pain, PMS, Pregnancy and New Borns, Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) Syndrome , Post Surgical Dysfunction, Colic, Autism, Central Nervous System Disorders, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorders. 

The treatment is so gentle that it is safe and suitable for people of all ages, from new borns to the elderly and also in acutely painful conditions. Indeed, it is often appropriate when other therapies may be unsafe, such as during pregnancy, after an operation, accident, fall or injury. 

Response to CST varies from individual to individual and condition to condition. Your response is uniquely your own and can’t be compared to anyone else’s even those cases that may appear to be similar to your own. The number of sessions needed can vary widely from one or more a week to every fortnight or as and when you need.
