Craniosacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle, hands-on technique designed to enhance the body's natural healing by improving the flow of cerebrospinal fluid, blood, and lymph. By addressing restrictions in the craniosacral system, CST helps restore balance, relieve tension, and promote overall well-being.
Key Components of Craniosacral Therapy:
Craniosacral System
This system includes the bones of the skull (cranium), the spine (down to the sacrum), and the cerebrospinal fluid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord.
Gentle Touch
Practitioners use a light touch—typically no more than 5 grams of pressure (about the weight of a nickel)—to detect and release imbalances or restrictions.
Rhythmic Motion
CST is based on the body's natural craniosacral rhythm, created by the movement of cerebrospinal fluid. Practitioners assess this rhythm to identify areas of restriction or imbalance.
Tension Release & Healing
By gently manipulating the skull, spine, and sacrum, CST helps release restrictions, allowing the nervous system to function optimally and restoring the body's natural state of balance.
CST provides a deeply relaxing, non-invasive approach to healing, supporting the body’s ability to self-correct and function at its best.
