What is Craniosacral Therapy?
Craniosacral therapists generally work one-on-one with patients who lie down on a massage table while the therapist gently manipulates the spine to release blockages in nerve pathways. In addition to making adjustments to the spine, cranial sacral therapists also may use light touch or pressure on other parts of the body, such as the face or hands.
What Can You Expect from a Session?
You can expect a session to last between 1-2 hours and feel free to wear loose clothing. We recommend bringing slippers or comfortable shoes, because you will be lying on the floor for most of the session. The first 45 minutes is spent with my hands on your forehead, neck, shoulders and back, gently rocking your body and working out tension as I release cranial and sacral pressure points. You may notice your breathing deepen and become more rhythmic during this time. In the second half of the session, we will work on releasing your energy blocks using gentle touch therapy techniques such as massage, acupressure and reflexology.
Benefits of Craniosacral Therapy
Craniosacral therapy is a form of bodywork that addresses the craniosacral system, which consists of 12 pairs of cranial bones, the spinal column and sacrum. It is a holistic treatment that aims to release tension, improve circulation and maintain a balanced nervous system.
Craniosacral therapy can help with many conditions such as anxiety and depression, headaches, insomnia or symptoms from injuries or accidents. Practitioners work through gently touching the skin or using light pressure on specific points on the body to effect changes in these areas. It is an effective way to release tension and promote relaxation while building energy levels so that you feel more energized when it’s over.
