CST is a gentle, hands-on method of evaluating and enhancing the functioning of a physiological body system called the craniosacral system – comprised of the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord.

CST uses a light touch treatment to release very deep tensions in the body. Some of these tensions make their way in the soft tissue that lines your brain and spinal cord, therefore affecting the nervous system. By releasing some of those tension the entire body benefits. These soft tissues are also found around the muscles and can be part of the reason for muscle tension. A sense of deep relaxation and often a feeling of lightness is often reported after a treatment. By having such a profound effect on the musculoskeletal system and the nervous system it can eliminate pain and stress, and improve your general state of health.

By complementing the body’s natural healing processes, CST is increasingly used as a preventive health measure for its ability to bolster resistance to disease, and is effective for a wide range of medical problems associated with pain and dysfunction, including:

Migraine Headaches

Chronic Neck and Back Pain

Motor-Coordination Impairments
