Craniosacral therapy is a hands-on approach that involves gentle manipulation of the craniosacral system, which comprises the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord. Practitioners use light touch to evaluate and enhance the body’s natural rhythm, releasing restrictions and promoting the body’s innate ability to heal.
How Does it Work?
- Assessment: The practitioner uses their hands to sense the craniosacral rhythm and identify areas of restriction or imbalance within the system.
- Gentle Manipulation: Through subtle touch, they apply gentle pressure to specific points on the body to release tension and encourage the body’s natural healing processes.
- Balancing the System: The goal is to restore balance within the craniosacral system, which can positively impact the entire body, including the central nervous system.
Whether you’re seeking relief from chronic pain, aiming to reduce stress, or simply striving for better overall wellness, craniosacral therapy offers a gentle yet effective approach. It’s suitable for individuals of all ages, from infants to seniors, and can be integrated into your wellness routine.
