CranioSacral
Therapy
A gentle method of detection and correction that encourages your
own natural healing machanisms to dissipate the negative effects of stress on
your own central nervous system. Craniosacral Therapy is a therapy that uses gentle
manual pressure applied to the skull, spine, and membranes to restore rhythmic
flow to the craniosacral system, which includes the brain, spinal cord, cerebrospinal
fluid, and surrounding membranes.
While
the validity of the cardiovascular and respiratory rhythms is undisputed today,
for eons the very existence of these systems sparked debates in medical communities
around the globe.
Now
for nearly 30 years, osteopathic physician and researcher John E. Upledger, D.O.,
O.M.M., has been a proponent of using the rhythm of another body system - the
craniosacral system—to enhance body functioning and help alleviate pain and
discomfort.
The
craniosacral system consists of the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surround
and protect the brain and spinal cord. It extends from the bones of the skull,
face and mouth, which make up the cranium, down to the sacrum (or tailbone area).
Since
this vital system influences the development and performance of the brain and
spinal cord, an imbalance or restriction in it could potentially cause any number
of sensory, motor, or neurological disabilities. These problems could include
chronic pain, eye difficulties, scoliosis, motor-coordination impairments, learning
disabilities, and other health challenges.
CranioSacral
Therapy is a gentle method of detection and correction that encourages your own
natural healing mechanisms o dissipate these negative effects of stress on your
central nervous system. You also benefit from better overall health and resistance
to disease.
