Craniosacral Techniques
Our CST Practitioners have been trained by the best! This is how The Upledger Institute explains CST at https://www.upledger.com/
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 gentle, hands-on method of evaluating and enhancing the functioning of a physiological body system called the craniosacral system - comprised of the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord. Using a soft touch generally no greater than 5 grams, or about the weight of a nickel, practitioners release restrictions in the craniosacral system, which has been shown to improve the functioning of the central nervous system, as well as many other systems of the body, such as digestive, musculoskeletal, respiratory, circulatory, and more. CST has also been shown to help with the physical components related to such somatic conditions as Post Traumatic Stress, depression and anxiety.
By facilitating the body's natural and innate healing processes, CST is increasingly used as a preventive health measure for its ability to bolster resistance to disease, and has been shown to be beneficial for people seeking help with a wide range of healthcare challenges and symptoms including:
Migraines, Headaches
Chronic Pain
Motor-Coordination Impairments
Central Nervous System Disorders
Orthopedic Problems
Traumatic Brain Injuries and Concussions
Alzheimer's
Spinal Cord Injuries
Scoliosis
Conception, Pregnancy, Birth
Pediatric Challenges
Learning Differences, ADD, ADHD
Autism and Sensory Processing
Chronic Fatigue
Emotional Difficulties, Depression
Stress and Tension-Related Problems
Fibromyalgia and other Connective-Tissue Disorders
Temporomandibular Joint Syndrome (TMJ) and Dental Challenges
Immune Disorders
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
Post-Surgical Dysfunction
