Craniosacral therapy
Craniosacral therapy - Craniosacral therapy was developed by Dr John Upledger in Palm Beach, Florida. The Upledger Institute was formed in Palm Beach to teach the techniques. Craniosacral therapy is a gentle method for treating and evaluating the bodies craniosacral system. During a craniosacral session the therapist will use a light touch, equivalent to the pressure that would be needed to push 1 once of weight across the table top. This light touch is needed to be able to feel the rhythmic motion of the cerebrospinal fluid that is seen in the craniosacral system.
Craniosacral treatments are noninvasive, usually indirect in approach craniosacral is intended to resolve restrictive barriers and restore symmetrical craniosacral motion. Craniosacral therapy is used in a vast array of muscle dysfunctions and preventative health practices. Craniosacral therapy can improve the function of the central nervous system and bolster the body’s immune system to fight off disease.
