BIODYNAMIC CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY

BIODYNAMIC CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY

Craniosacral therapy was developed by osteopaths when they noticed that so-called “fibrous” or “immovable” joints (imagine all the suture joints in the skull), actually did move, very slightly. The constant and rhythmic movement of these joints (about the width of a piece of paper), was due to something called the craniosacral pump. This rhythmic pump alters the pressure of the cerebral spinal fluid, in the brain and spinal column causing the entire body to flex and extend very slightly.

The craniosacral therapist listens to these rhythms with their hands. The rhythm will naturally come to a stop during a session and a release occurs within the body. This release is usually a past trauma (a story) stored within the body. Releasing these traumas can create a dramatic return to better health.

The craniosacral therapist is only a facilitator for the client’s own healing mechanism. This is a hands-on technique with very light pressure. It will feel more like an energy healing technique, but it is based on actual anatomical and physiological function.

• The Craniosacral Rhythm releases and restores balance to the nervous system.
• Addresses connective tissue by unwinding and smoothing restrictions in the body’s network of tissues.
• Releases trauma and unhealthy patterns from skin ligaments, tissues and bones. Trapped emotions will begin to unburden places in your body, unlocking a liberated healing path.
• Releases tensions deep in the body to relieve pain and bolster the immune system, taking your body out of the sympathetic state and into the parasympathetic state.
