What is CranioSacral Therapy?

​CranioSacral Therapy is a gentle method of detection and correction that encourages your own natural healing mechanisms to dissipate negative effects of stress on your central nervous system,
allowing better overall health and resistance to disease.

​With patience, CranioSacral Therapy will bring you back to a place of health you never thought possible. No drugs. No frightening manipulation. I’m back to a busy lifestyle that conventional medicine told me I might never receive.​

What is CranioSacral Therapy?

Picture
When your body undergoes stress and strains, the body absorbs them, but your body can only handle so much tension before tissues begin to tighten and potentially affect the brain and spinal cord, meaning that it compromises the function of your central nervous system and nearly every other system in your body. CraninoSacral Therapy releases tensions in your body to allow it to relax and to self-correct through the craniosacral system, which is the soft tissue and fluid that protect your brain and spinal cord. This therapy also naturally eliminates pain and stress, strengthens your resistance to disease, and enhances your health and well-being.

CranioSacral Therapy takes place in a quiet setting to allow you to relax comfortably, fully clothed, on a padded table. Your therapist will gently touch parts of your body to find the rhythm of the fluid that flows around your Central Nervous System. Your therapist will then trace the areas of weakness through the body to find the source of dysfunction. You will experience unique and relaxing individual sessions through light touch that releases tensions and dysfunctions. CranioSacral Therapy is a gentle touch, meaning it’s effective and safe for all ages, from newborns to elders. ​


The Origins of CranioSacral Therapy

Osteopathic physician John E Upledge was a clinical researcher and professor of biomechanics at the College of Osteopathic Medicine at Michigan State University from 1975-83. Upledge spent time testing the influence of the craniosacral system alongside his team of anatomists, physiologists, biophysicists, and bioengineers. These studies led him to create CranioSacral Therapy, which is now taught worldwide through the Upledger Institute. ​

CST is beneficial through pregnancy, infancy, and beyond.

With Pregnancy / Birthing

CranioSacral Therapy is beneficial for many issues, including pregnancy. This therapy can help assist in pregnancy from start to finish. CranioSacral Therapy aids the mother in body correction, helps alleviate discomfort, and gives the baby a safe womb. CranioSacral Therapy can ease recovery from necessary invasive procedures for childbirth and can help with conception, pregnancy, labor, delivery, and post-partum. Empowering both the mother and the baby, CranioSacral Therapy can be beneficial for the father and surrounding family of the newborn and expecting mother. ​

With Cancer

CranioSacral Therapy can also aid in the side-effects of cancer. While struggling with the effects of cancer treatments, Cranio-Sacral Therapy will help give you a better quality of life and alleviate how your body reacts to chemotherapy, radiation, and other treatments that you might undergo. ​
