CranioSacral Therapy

CranioSacral Therapy is a gentle, powerful health care approach that acts through the central nervous system to assist in improving function in the whole body. The craniosacral system is the term used to describe the structures supporting the brain and spinal cord, specifically the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surround and protect these areas. Using a hands-on method of evaluation and treatment, the functioning of this physiological body system can be gently influenced and improved. As it tends to complement and stimulate the body's natural healing processes, it is increasingly used as a preventive health measure and is effective for a wide range of medical problems associated with pain and dysfunction.

Receiving CranioSacral Therapy tends to be very relaxing and positively pleasurable. Ignored or hidden problems are resolved as often as those for which help was initially sought.

CranioSacral Therapy works on many different levels and influences many different structures within the body. It influences the musculo-skeletal system, the nervous system, the cardio-vascular system, the immune system, the organs, the connective tissues, the fluids and the energy systems of the body.

Disturbances to cranio-sacral motion may arise from a number of different causes - from physical injury, infection, inflammation, structural imbalance, muscular strain, emotional tension, or disease and dysfunction of any kind.

Interaction with the CranioSacral System stimulates a natural reorganisation of the system, enabling the release of these accumulated patterns of injury and tension and bringing our whole being into a more balanced and orderly state in which it can function at its optimum level.
