CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle, hands-on method of evaluating and enhancing a person's overall function and health by very gently and subtly decompressing and releasing restrictions of the bones, connective tissues, and structures of the head and spine. When these are returned to a more natural state, the entire nervous system (and body) has the opportunity to function more efficiently and with less pain or dysfunction.
The CranioSacral System consists of cerebrospinal fluid and its membranes that surround and support the brain and spinal cord. It extends from the head (cranium) down to the tailbone (sacrum), hence the name cranio-sacral. The nervous system is intricately connected throughout the rest of the body. Therefore, by helping the nervous system to function optimally and without restriction, any part of the human body (or bodily function) can be positively affected.
During a CST session, the flow of cerebrospinal fluid improves and is enhanced, thereby more effectively nourishing and protecting the central nervous system. Any health issue related to the brain, orthopedic injury/disorder, or nervous system may be positively impacted by CST. This form of therapy is never forceful, and uses pressure no greater than 5 grams (the weight of a nickel) to achieve results.
