CranioSacral Therapy
CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle, hands-on form of bodywork which can promote relaxation and the release of tension in the body. During a session, the practitioner uses light touch and pressure to communicate with and resolve imbalances in the body’s craniosacral system. This system is composed of the fluid and layers of tissue that surround and protect the central nervous system — the brain and spinal cord. CST can help treat digestive disorders, insomnia, headaches, anxiety, muscle tension and pain, and other conditions associated with chronic stress. The person receiving treatment remains clothed during the session.
