Benefits of Craniosacral Therapy

Experts estimate that upwards of ninety percent of disease is stress-related. And perhaps nothing ages us faster, internally and externally, than high stress. Craniosacral Therapy is an effective tool for managing this stress, which translates into:

  • Decreased anxiety.
  • Decreased  Long COVID symptoms
  • Enhanced sleep quality.
  • Headache and sinus support
  • Concussion support in healing
  • Motor Vehicle Accident support in healing
  • Greater energy.
  • Improved concentration - great for students
  • Increased circulation of Cerebrospinal Fluid
  • Reduced fatigue.

 

Craniosacral Therapy (CST) was developed in the 1970s by Dr. John Upledger, an osteopathic physician. It originated from the concept of cranial osteopathy, a treatment method created by Dr. William Sutherland in the early 20th century, which focused on the idea that the bones of the skull and sacrum could subtly move and influence the flow of cerebrospinal fluid. Upledger expanded on this theory, using light touch and gentle manipulation to enhance the body's natural healing processes. CST aims to relieve tension in the craniosacral system, promoting relaxation, pain relief, and improved health. It has gained in popularity with some clinical studies supporting its benefits for conditions like chronic pain, migraines, and stress-related disorders.
