Craniosacral Therapy
The cranium is the skull encasing the brain. Sacral refers to the triangular bone that is at the bottom of the back. Encapsulated within the vertebral column is the dura, deeper within- the arachnoid, and then the pia which surrounds the spine.
As Craniosacal Therapists trained at the Upledger Institute, we are listening and melding with the rhythm of the fluid which is circulating around the cranium down along the spine (sub arachnoide space)and back up. When we listen to this flow, we support the rhythm to free up any restrictions and to allow the fluid to nourish and clear away any issues in the Craniosacral System.
This is very soothing to the nervous system. It’s an experience, and many people find themselves becoming very calm and relaxed. And as we are also in connection with the fascia and other tissues, releases happen all the time on many different levels, with the benefits of the deeper intelligence moving the body toward equalibrium and integration.
Some things in the body are experiential and can’t be measured strictly. Can Craniosacral Therapy help you? I’d say yes. It’s is very nurturing and I have felt such incredible change under my hands, and have seen beautiful afterglows on the faces of my clients.
People give great accounts to their internal senses and feelings shifting. But truly, when one person, any therapist, works with you intently, with skill and with compassion, something good always occurs. With Craniosacral Therapy it is scientific and studies show it can be helpful. However, it’s unqiues up to the individual on the table, how much they can receive and shift. The body is rather miraculous, especially with a little nudge to heal.
