What is CranioSacral Therapy? ![]() CranioSacral Therapy was pioneered and developed by osteopathic physician John Upledger following extensive studies from1975 to1983 . CST is a gentle, hands on method of evaluating and enhancing the functioning of a physiological body system called the craniosacral system- comprised of the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord . Using a soft touch generally no greater than 5 grams, or about the weight of a nickel, practitioners release restrictions in the cranioSacral system to improve the functioning of the central nervous system. By complementing the body’s natural healing,CST is increasingly used as a preventive health measure for its ability to bolster resistance to disease, and is effective for a wide range of medical problems associated with pains and dysfunction, including: • Migraine Headaches • Chronic Neck and Back pain • Motor- Coordination Impairments • Colic • Autism • Central Nervous System Disorders • Scoliosis • Infantile disorders • Learning disabilities • Chronic Fatigue • Emotional Difficulties • Fibromyalgia • Temporomandibular Joint Syndrome also known as TMJ • Post traumatic Stress Disorder • Post Surgical Dysfunction What are the Benefits of CranioSacral Therapy ? CranioSacral Therapy has a very high succes rate . Most practionners find that around 85% of clients are happy with the results of the work. Benefits can come in a variety of ways: • Increased sense of Relaxation • Improvement of the symptoms you came to see the practitioner about. Quite simply you get better. • Improvement of other symptoms. For example someone coming for a treatment for a bad back can find that, as well as their back pain easing, the migraines they have had for years have got better too. • Change in behaviour patterns, leading to an improvement in relationship with friends family, colleagues, etc.... • Greater capacity to manage life in general • Reduced stress • Improvement of psychological issues • Reduction of effects of past trauma • Improved sense of well Being |
