Craniosacral Therapy
The movement of spinal fluid within and around the central ne rvous system is believed to create a vital body rhythm, equally important to health and well-being as the beating of the heart or the breath.
CranioSacral Therapy helps to boost general well-being, reduce stress, improve quality of sleep, increase energy and enhance the functioning of all the body's organs via the nervous system. It is a non-intrusive therapy that works with the entire structure, physiology, mind and spirit. For a treatment, clients usually lay on a massage table and the therapist works through light clothing. It is a very gentle and profoundly relaxing procedure that lasts between 40 to 60 minutes.
CranioSacral therapists may combine other therapies in a CranioSacral Balancing session, such as Myofascial release or Polarity Therapy. These therapies enhance the healing session and effectiveness of CranioSacral Therapy for treating some disorders. CranioSacral Therapy can treat a wide range of conditions and can be used to treat all age groups including babies and young children.
