What is CranioSacral Therapy (CST)?CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle, hands-on method of evaluating and enhancing the function of your craniosacral system--i.e., the membranes and the cerebrospinal fluid that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord.
Sometimes, the body finds creative ways to store significant events in our lives in and around the body in innovative ways. CST can also offer a somatic exit to finally allow resolution as an adjunct to therapy.

The work can be profoundly relaxing, exhilarating, deeply moving, or involve resolving old “issues.” Our CST training is via the Upledger approach through the Upledger Institute. CST can affect not only profound structural change within the body but also mental and emotional change.
By freeing the central nervous system to perform at its best, CST enhances the body’s natural healing processes to help regulate the central nervous system, dissipate negative effects of stress, enhance health and well-being, and strengthen resistance to disease.
CST tends to be most effective for acute and fragile conditions.
