CranioSacral Therapy - 90.00 (1 Hour)

What is CranioSacral Therapy? Gentle, effective and patient-centered, CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is a well-established treatment method designed to enhance the functioning of the craniosacral system. This vital system is made up of the membranes and fluid that surround, protect and nourish the brain and spinal cord. It extends from the bones of the head, face and mouth to the sacrum or tailbone area. CranioSacral Therapy was pioneered and developed by osteopathic physician John E. Upledger, following extensive scientific studies from 1975 to 1983 at Michigan State University, where he served as a clinical researcher and Professor of Biomechanics. His work drew on the discoveries of Dr. William Sutherland, who first identified the wave-like movements of the craniosacral system. These subtle rhythms can be felt throughout the body, and are inextricably linked with physical and emotional health. CranioSacral Therapy essentially empowers the patient to recognize or release blockages or tension, especially in the central nervous system. Without pain or discomfort, the therapist facilitates the letting go of patterns which restrict vitality, enhancing the body’s natural capacity for self-repair.
