Craniosacral Therapy   
 
 
CST was pioneered and developed by opteopathic physician John E. Upledger following extensive scientific studies from 1975 to 1983 at Michigan State University, where he served as a clinical researcher and Professor of Biomechanics.
 
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.
 
Using a soft touch generally no greater that 5 grams, or about the weight of a nickel, practitioners release restrictions in the craniosacral system to improve the functioning of central nervous system.
 
By complementing the body's natural healing processes, CST is increasingly used as a preventive health measure for it's ability to bolster resistance to disease, and is effective for a wide range of medical problems assiciated with pain and dysfunction, including:
 
  • Migraine Headaches
  • Chronic Neck and Back Pain
