CranioSacral Therapy
Craniosacral therapy (also called CST, cranial osteopathy, also
spelled craniosacral bodywork or therapy) is a method of Complementary
and alternative medicine used by physical therapists, massage therapists,
naturopaths, chiropractors and osteopaths. A craniosacral therapy
session involves the therapist placing their hands on the patient
allowing them to tune into the craniosacral system. By gently working
with the spine, the skull and its cranial sutures, diaphragms,
and fascia, the restrictions of nerve passages are eased, the movement
of spinal fluid through the spinal cord can be optimized, and misaligned
bones are restored to their proper position. Craniosacral therapy
is used to treat mental stress, neck and back pain, migraines,
TMJ syndrome, and chronic pain conditions such as fibromyalgia.
