CranioSacral - 1hr or 90mins
CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle, hands-on approach that releases tensions deep in the body to relieve pain and dysfunction and improve whole-body health and performance. It was pioneered and developed by Osteopathic Physician John E. Upledger after years of clinical testing and research at Michigan State University where he served as professor of biomechanics.
Using a soft touch which is generally no greater than 5 grams – about the weight of a small coin – practitioners release restrictions in the soft tissues that surround the central nervous system. Mostly very slight to little movements on a physical level, but still gaining big results. Other than the heart & respiratory systems, there is an additional rhythm within the body that is worked on to restore balance & symmetry, as well as the movement of cerebrospinal fluid. CST is increasingly used as a preventive health measure for its ability to bolster resistance to disease, and it’s effective for a wide range of medical problems associated with pain and dysfunction.
Multiple ( about 3 ) sessions minimum are recommended to begin to achieve major break-throughs. It takes time to get your body balanced & synced. But we also recommend not waiting too long in-between sessions if you plan on working through the series. There are two steps with different procedures, and you have to complete step one at least 1-2X’s before you can begin step two. A customized plan will be set in place with you and your therapist.
You will remain clothed on top of table, so please wear comfortable clothing ( usually exercise, sweats, yoga clothing is best - no jeans or dresses/ skirts )
