CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY    (CST)

 

CranioSacral Therapy – CST – is a gentle but extremely effective hands-on therapy, which is done whilst you are lying fully clothed on a comfortable couch.

There are no ‘twist & crunch’ manipulations, and the pressure used is, generally, very light, which ‘sneaks under’ the body’s defensive radar as it does not need to use protective tension against physical pressure.  This may allow the body to release tension and restrictions and return to its original comfortable state.

CST is not just a ‘head treatment,’ despite its name. The bones of the skull, spine, and sacrum (pelvis & hip area) are all linked to every part of the body and are affected by any imbalance and restriction in the body.

CST may be effective for a wide range of problems; the more common ones are headaches, migraines, back pain, jaw problems, hip pain, chronic fatigue, neck pain, fibromyalgia and other connective tissue disorders. 

CST it may assist babies and children  with colic, feeding and sleeping problems, hyperactivity, developmental problems and physical conditions such as glue ear. It may also ease subtle strains that may have occurred during birth.

CST may be effective with dental problems including TMJ syndrome, extractions, bruxism, and bite-related issues.
