Craniosacral therapy is a light touch hands-on treatment that is effective for a wide range of medical problems associated with pain and dysfunction. It aims to release any areas of restriction in the craniosacral system. This system includes the fluid and membranes that protect and nourish the brain and spinal cord. Any imbalances within this system could affect the central nervous system leading to possible sensory, motor, neurological, digestive or behavioural disorders. Craniosacral therapy can access and release areas of tension, trauma, or suppressed emotions that are held in the fascial tissues of the body, regardless of how long they have been there. Releasing fascial tightness calms the nervous system and provides a platform for the body to get on with healing itself. Because craniosacral therapy is so gentle, it is suitable for all ages from new-born babies to advanced old age. As it involves no manipulation, it is often appropriate when other therapies may be unsafe, such as for people in fragile or acutely painful conditions, during pregnancy, after an operation, accident, fall or injury. In fact, many conditions that do not respond well to other modalities are helped by craniosacral therapy.
