CranioSacral Therapy
Hands-on therapy, where the touch is gentle, non-invasive and usually subtle. Powerful therapy that affects, assists in improving the functions in the whole body. CranioSacral Therapy (CST) was pioneered and developed by osteopathic physician John E. Upledger following extensive scientific studies from 1975 to 1983 at Michigan State University, where he served as a clinical researcher and Professor of Biomechanics. CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is a hands-on therapy, where the touch is gentle, non-invasive and usually subtle. It is a powerful therapy that affects and assists in improving the functions of the whole body. Using ‘listening hands’ tuned to the feeling of the craniosacral rhythm, feeling how well the rhythm is reflecting out to the rest of the body and what may be able to do to improve its functioning. The practitioner senses tensions in the body and helps to release them in a supported and comfortable way. During or after a session, you may feel calm and energized, with increased clarity of mind and a feeling of overall well-being. Patients find CranioSacral Therapy effective for a wide range of problems associated with discomfort, pain, and dysfunction. Interestingly, this approach also appears to complement and stimulate the body’s natural healing processes, therefore CST is increasingly used as a preventive health measure.
