Craniosacral Therapy

---

Craniosacral therapy (CST) is a gentle, hands-on healing modality that focuses on the body's subtle rhythms and the delicate system surrounding your brain and spinal cord.  Unlike traditional massage, CST uses a very light touch – sometimes compared to the weight of a nickel – to support your body's innate self-healing mechanisms.

• The Craniosacral System: Your brain and spinal cord are bathed in cerebrospinal fluid. This fluid has a subtle rhythmic pulse that a skilled CST therapist can detect.
• Detecting Restrictions: Through gentle touch, often on the head, spine, and sacrum (tailbone), the therapist can feel areas where this fluid flow may be restricted.
• Releasing Tension: Using extremely light pressure and subtle manipulations, the CST therapist encourages the body to release deep-seated tension patterns, improving fluid flow and overall function of the nervous system.

• Chronic pain & migraines
• TMJ dysfunction
• Neck and back pain
• Stress, anxiety, and fatigue
• Trauma recovery (physical & emotional)
• Fibromyalgia
• And more!

• Deep Relaxation: CST sessions are typically deeply relaxing. 
• Subtle Sensations: You might feel warmth, gentle pulsations, or a sense of deep unwinding where the therapist is working.
• Lasting Benefits: While CST is gentle, the effects can be profound, sometimes leading to improvements that continue to unfold over several days post-session.

Our CST therapists are highly trained in this specialized modality. They take a holistic approach, understanding how the subtle rhythms of your craniosacral system connect to your overall well-being.  Whether you're seeking pain relief, stress reduction, or support for deeper healing, CST is a powerful addition to your wellness journey.
