CST: Your Body's Hidden Rhythm of Healing

Deep within your body lies a subtle yet powerful system that influences your health in ways you may never have imagined, called The CranioSacral System! It is the silent conductor of your nervous system, orchestrating balance, relaxation and profound self healing. This system consists of the brain, spinal cord, membranes and the cerebral spinal fluid. Just like your heartbeat or breathing, it has its own rhythmic pulse, gently expanding and contracting to nourish, protect and detoxify your central nervous system!
The nervous system is designed to produce normal muscle tonus at 30 stimuli per second. If the rhythmic pulse of the cranioSacral system is disrupted due to the body being under stress, injury or other physical or emotional traumas, the nervous system stimuli increases its rate per second causing an imbalance in the craniosacral rhythm (CSR). If left untreated, this over stimulus to the body will spread to other areas eventually causing a general contraction off all the major muscles, leaving the body struggling to function at its best, leading to tension, fatigue, headaches, emotional imbalances, not only having a negative effect on the entire CranioSacral System, but also on all of the systems of the body. Bringing the stimuli back down through CranioSacral Therapy releases restrictions within the CranioSacral System, allowing the body to unwind tension, relieve pain, and access a deep state of healing, ultimately “Pulling the plug” on your pain cycle.

CranioSacral Therapy is a gentle, light touch therapy that facilitates profound physical and emotional healing in the patient by actually re-setting the Nervous System. It is subtle palpating body movements that accentuate and coincide with the CranioSacral pumping action of the cerebral spinal fluid resulting in improved functioning of the brain and spinal cord and resets the Nervous System which decreases the stimuli to overstimulated nerves.

The studies from CranioSacral Therapy show profound results in improved functioning of all the major systems of the body. For those suffering from chronic pain, migraines, TMJ dysfunction, fibromyalgia, PTSD, brain fog or nervous system dysregulation, CranioSacral Therapy provides a profound yet non-invasive path to relief. It's not about addressing symptoms, it's about awakening your body's innate ability to heal itself!
The CranioSacral system is functionally related to the Central Nervous System, the Autonomic Nervous System, the Neuromuscular System, the Musculoskeletal System and the Endocrine System.
