CranioSacral Therapy

CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle, hands-on method used to evaluate and improve the function of the crainosacral system, which is the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid surrounding the brain and spinal cord.

With a light touch, restriction can be released which helps improve the function of the central nervous system and often the digestive, musculoskeletal, respiratory, and circulatory systems. I am a certified practitioner through the Upledger Institute and attend classes and continuing education every year to improve my skills and practice. I also am a teaching assistant through Upledger for the CST level 1 class.

CST also helps regulate the Vagus Nerve (cranial nerve X), which regulates our central nervous system between “fight or flight” and “rest and digest” responses, helping a person feel more regulated and calm.

During craniosacral therapy, clients wear comfortable, loose clothing and are positioned on a table in a comfortable position for the session.

CST is used to help facilitate the body's natural and innate healing processes and is often indicated for:

• Headache

• Anxiety

• Chronic neck and back pain

• Autism

• Central Nervous System disorders

• Concussions and Traumatic Brain Injuries

• Chronic Fatigue

• Musculoskeletal dysfunction

• Stress and tension

• Fibromyalgia and other connective tissue disorders

• TMJ

• Post-traumatic stress disorder

• Post-surgical dysfunction
