Cranial Sacral

Craniosacral therapy is a gentle, noninvasive method form of bodywork evaluating and enhancing the function of a physiological body arrangement and addresses the bones of the head, spinal column and sacrum.

Craniosacral therapy encourages the body’s natural healing mechanisms to improve the functioning of the central nervous system, enhance health and resistance to disease, and drive away the negative effects of stress. The craniosacral therapy practitioner uses a light touch to the patient’s pelvis and spine to assist the natural movement of cerebrospinal fluid. Therapists generally use only five grams of pressure, roughly the weight of a nickel, to test for restrictions in various parts of the craniosacral system, regulating the flow of fluid and aid in primary respiration.
