Craniosacral Therapy

This form of treatment directly influences subtle rhythms in the body related to movement of cerebrospinal fluid in the spinal cord. These rhythms are a fundamental expression of our state of health, and resonate throughout the body. A craniosacral therapist is trained to feel the subtle waves of this delicate system, to detect its resonance.

Physical and emotional trauma and stress can seriously disrupt the craniosacral rhythm, upsetting its smooth flow. This kind of disturbance may be held in the body for years, even decades after the event, resulting in many years of physical and emotional pain.

Rather than trying to resolve a symptom directly, the craniosacral therapist seeks to increase the level of health in the affected area, as well as in the body as a whole. Working this way, Craniosacral Therapy will restore the individual to optimum well-being.

Babies and children right through to builders respond well to this therapy. It has a special role to play in resolving emotional difficulties, learning disorders and lack of self-confidence.

Craniosacral Therapy is a complete form of treatment in itself. However, it lends itself to being used simultaneously with acupuncture.
