Craniosacral therapy is a gentle, non-invasive therapy that helps take stress out of the central nervous system, enhancing the body’s innate healing processes. The therapy is based on the craniosacral system, which consists of the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surrounds and protects the brain and spinal cord, it extends from the skull to the tailbone. Imbalances in this system could cause problems such as scoliosis, eye difficulties, motor-coordination impairments, learning disabilities and other dysfunctions of the central nervous system. |

Craniosacral therapy involves the practitioner lightly evaluating the rhythm of the movement of cerebrospinal fluid, felt at different areas around the body. The practitioner can feel at the head for symmetry of the cranial bones and the flow of spinal fluid.
This therapy is particularly good for head and spinal injuries. By removing imbalance from the craniosacral system we allow the spinal fluid to deliver nutrients and protection to the brain and spinal cord. |
