What is Cranial Sacral Therapy?
Cranial Sacral is a gentle, light touch therapy for the head, tailbone and spine. Cranial Sacral Therapists work with bones, meninges and fascia in order to release restrictions in connective tissues within the body. Releasing these restrictions aids the body with its own natural healing ability. Cranial Sacral involves lying on a massage table, while fully clothed and enjoying the relaxing benefits of this light-touch therapy.
It may also help to alleviate:
- Stress
- Whiplash
- Headaches
- Concussion
- Neck or back pain
- Jaw issues (TMJ)
- Sleep issues
- Tinnitus (ringing in ears)
- Post-traumatic-stress disorder (PTSD)
- Anxiety
- Fibromyalgia
- Post-COVID Long Haul Symptoms
and more…
In addition to the spine, Cranial Sacral may also help with pain or mobility in knees, elbows, wrists and ankles.
