What is CranioSacral Therapy?
Craniosacral Therapy (CST) as developed and taught by John Upledger, DO, OMM; is a gentle manual therapy where the practitioner evaluates and releases deep physical and emotional tension in your body tissues. The craniosacral system consists of cerebral spinal fluid, membranes and the dural tube, protected inside the skull and spine.
Releasing tensions deep in the body balances this core system, helping your body correct and heal itself. When the central nervous system is functioning at peak performance, all areas of your body improve. At the end of a session, the cerebral spinal fluid is flowing optimally, carrying away toxins and bringing in nutrients. CranioSacral Therapy is hygiene for the brain and spinal cord.

What can you expect from a CranioSacral session?
* Deep relaxation
* Softening of tight tissues
* Decreased chronic pain
* Balanced head and body
A session takes place in a quiet, private setting and lasts about an hour. You remain clothed, as you lie on your back, relaxing on a padded table. Parents remain in the room with their child.
I begin by assessing your cranial rhythm with my hands, as it flows through your central nervous system. I will assess and gently release tension/restrictions from your sacrum (tailbone) to the top of your head with no more force than the weight of a nickel. Each session is tailored to your needs.
Most people feel deep relaxation, and what some describe as setting the restart button on the central nervous system. I will facilitate healing and balance in your body, however you are responsible for taking ownership for your health. We will work in a collaborative manner to help you function at your optimum.

“The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life….
I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it.
And so it is with you." ~ Charles Swindoll
