Craniosacral Therapy has its roots in osteopathic medicine and is a gentle, non-invasive way of working with the body. It utilizes a pulsation known as the Cranial Rhythm in a diagnostic and therapeutic way. This rhythm arises out of the central nervous system and the fluid that surrounds it and can be felt throughout the body's tissues and cells. This rhythm is fundamental to health and when it becomes restricted or blocked by physical injuries and emotional stress, ill health arises. Using light touch, Craniosacral Therapists stimulate the Cranial Rhythms in a way that encourages the body to rebalance and heal itself.
