What is Craniosacral Therapy?
Craniosacral therapy (CST) is a gentle, hands-on therapy that supports the self-regulating capacities of the body. Treatment sessions are performed fully clothed. CST uses light touch to assess for and relieve tension in the central nervous system through manipulation of what is known as the cranial rhythm. CST can be supportive of overall well-being and is helpful as an adjunctive therapy for many chronic pain conditions. While the scientific literature on craniosacral therapy’s effectiveness is limited it is growing. In my clinical experience, I have found it to be a highly supportive and useful adjunctive therapy.
