Craniosacral Therapy is an exceptionally gentle yet extremely powerful form of ’hands-on‘ therapy. Working with the central nervous system, the aim is to create and maintain a healthy balanced pulse in the spine and brain. Penetrating the deep-rooted causes, Craniosacral Therapy works with ailments at the level of their origins, rather than their symptoms: many symptoms are secondary signs of disturbances in the spine-skull relationship. It is very effective for promoting general health, alleviating life’s stresses & increasing a sense of vitality and well-being.
The treatment is usually carried out with the patient lying down, fully clothed, in a quiet & peaceful environment. It involves a very light contact of the therapist’s hands on the patient’s cranium, sacrum or other appropriate part of the body.
Its gentleness makes it very suitable for babies & children, as well as the elderly, including all ages & stages in between. It is also a very effective form of treatment for any acutely painful or delicate condition.
Craniosacral Therapy is a holistic approach to health, taking the whole body into consideration. Therefore, having a balanced & supportive life-style & committing to regular sessions tend to be important factors in gaining the full benefit of Craniosacral Therapy & its cumulative effects.
