CranioSacral Therapy
CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle, light-touch method of evaluating and enhancing the function of the craniosacral system - the physiological body system comprised of the membranes and
cerebrospinal fluid that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord.

The importance of the craniosacral system to continued good health
The craniosacral system is vital as it influences the development and performance of the brain and spinal cord, imbalance or restriction in this system could potentially cause any number of sensory, motor,
or neurological distortions. These expressions could include chronic pain, eye difficulties, motor-coordination impairments, and other health challenges.

CST enhances the body's natural healing processes to improve the
operation of the central nervous system, dissipate the negative effects of stress, enhance health and strengthen resistance to disease. The method generally requires only five grams of pressure - the equivalent weight of a nickel - to test for restrictions in various parts of the craniosacral system. Often the evaluation alone will help solve the presenting complaint.

What are the benefits from receiving CranioSacral Therapy?
While the subtle manipulations engage the craniosacral system they
also stimulate the functioning of the immune and parasympathetic
nervous systems. It is shown that when these actions are accomplished, the results may benefit those experiencing:

     • Migraine headaches
     • Traumatic brain and spinal cord injuries
     • Chronic neck and back pain
     • Emotional difficulties
     • Motor-coordination impairments
     • Stress and tension-related difficulties
     • Central nervous system disorders
     • Temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMJ)
     • Orthopedic difficulties
     • Scoliosis
     • Chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia
     • Neurovascular or immune disorders
     • Postsurgical dysfunction
