CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY

Craniosacral therapy is a whole body healing system that focuses on the root cause of conditions, rather than merely on the symptoms. Deeply relaxing, like a resting meditation. Feel nurtured and supported as if you're being cradled in your mothers arms. The beauty of this work is how it quietly fosters emotional processing and mind/body connection, while bypassing the thinking brain. These treatments can be transformational for those suffering with migraines, chronic pain, anxiety, and illness that isn't resolved with main stream medicine.

This subtle but powerful body work allows me to melt into the tissue and target spots requesting attention and release. It leaves you feeling joyfully light and peacefully present.

I invite you to experience this deliciously calming and highly effective healing treatment.

I am offering combination sessions, so you can feel the magic of this work while also receiving massage. Please book your session as 60 or 90 minutes Craniosacral. Let me know when you arrive that you want a Cranio/Combo session.

More About Craniosacral Therapy

Few body structures have more influence over your health and well-being than your central nervous system. And few body systems have more impact on your central nervous system than the Craniosacral system, the soft tissues and fluid that protect your brain and spinal cord.

You endure stresses and strains, and your body absorbs them. But your body can only handle so much tension before the tissues begin to tighten, and potentially affect the brain and spinal cord. Unfortunately, this can compromise the function of the central nervous system, and nearly every other system in your body.

Craniosacral therapy (CST) releases those tensions to allow the entire body to relax and self correct. Using a gentle touch I evaluate you for strain patterns. Then I use distinctive light touch techniques to release any restrictions I find.

By freeing the central nervous system to perform at its best, CST has been shown to naturally reduce pain and stress, strengthen your resistance to disease, and enhance your health and well-being.

Your Body is a Self-Correcting Mechanism

There is an innate ability of the human body to heal itself. Some practitioners refer to this as your "Inner Wisdom". When the skin is lacerated, this self-correcting mechanism responds with an elaborate process to close the skin. Immune responses and inflammatory responses are also indicative of the body's self healing abilities. Craniosacral therapy involves facilitating or enhancing the body's own natural capacity to heal when trauma or disease processes become overwhelming for your system.

How Did Craniosacral Therapy Begin?

CST was pioneered and developed by osteopathic physician John E.Upledger. He served from 1975-1983 as a clinical researcher and professor of biomechanics at the College of Osteopathic Medicine at Michigan State University. It was during those years that his team of anatomists, physiologists, biophysicists, and bioengineers was tasked with performing experiments to test the existence and influence of the Craniosacral system.

The results of those scientific studies explained the function of the Craniosacral system, and its use in evaluating and treating poorly understood malfunctions of the brain and spinal cord. Dr. Upledger went on to develop Craniosacral Therapy and other complementary modalities that are now taught worldwide to healthcare professionals through Upledger Institute International's educational programs.
