Craniosacral Therapy

A gentle, hand on technique of bodywork that addresses restrictions in the craniotomy-sacral system and supports the body’s natural healing abilities. This includes the nervous system along with the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid surrounding the brain and spinal cord, as well as the bones of the skull, spine, and sacrum. Activating and opening up the flow of this system allows the body to access greater levels of health and vitality.

CST is a practice that operates within the framework that our bodies have an innate healing ability. Creating a supportive tone and setting in our Nervous System is what activates this inner wisdom and ability. Our bodies hold the keys to their own expansion, by releasing restrictions in the fascia and correlative connective tissues we can then begin the release of stuck emotions, traumas, beliefs or programming that is keeping our body and Nervous System in a state of contraction or collapse. When we open up the flow of our cerebrospinal fluid and allow it to flow freely through the spinal cord and craniosacral system we gain access to our own inner peace. We find the mental clarity we have been searching for, our body feel open, calm and relaxed. Anxiety dissipates and our physical container becomes more open, allowing the space to hold more stability not only physically but mentally and emotionally.

There are a myriad of benefits one can receive from CST. It supports more restful and deeper sleep, a release of tension in the body, decreasing anxiety, strengthening the immune system, supporting the Nervous System in establishing a new baseline of ease rather than tension and stress, processing trauma and emotions
