Cranial Sacral 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 to improve the functioning of the central nervous system.
By complementing the body's natural healing processes, CST is increasingly used as a preventive health measure for its ability to bolster resistance to disease, and is effective for a wide range of medical problems associated with pain and dysfunction, including:
-
Migraine Headaches
-
Chronic Neck and Back Pain
-
Motor-Coordination Impairments
-
Colic
-
Autism
-
Central Nervous System Disorders
-
Orthopedic Problems
-
Traumatic Brain and Spinal Cord Injuries
-
Scoliosis
-
Infantile Disorders
