What is Craniosacral Therapy?

How CST Works

The craniosacral system surrounds, protects, and nourishes your brain and spinal cord. Because it is deeply intertwined with your central nervous system, any tension or restriction held can impact your entire body.

Why Your Body Needs It

Life’s physical and emotional stressors—such as injuries, traumas, anxiety, chronic stress, difficult births, or major hormonal shifts—can create deep, physical restrictions in our connective tissue. When these imbalances go unaddressed, they often lead to:

  • Chronic pain and systemic discomfort.

  • Hidden barriers to traditional physical healing.

  • A disorganized, overstimulated nervous system stuck in survival mode.

The Result

Using gentle, highly skilled manual techniques, I work with your body to resolve these restrictive patterns. By safely releasing this deep-seated tension, we empower your body to return to its natural state of self-healing, comfort, and fluid regulation.

Conditions Treated by Craniosacral Therapy

A Gentle Path to Relief, Balance, and Structural Support

Craniosacral Therapy is a non-invasive, profoundly supportive treatment. By calming the nervous system and releasing deep fascial tension, this gentle touch allows the body to navigate and resolve a wide range of physical and neurological challenges:   

Pain & Structural Support

  • Chronic Pain & Fibromyalgia: Works to ease systemic tension and soothe hyper-sensitive nerve pathways.

  • Headaches & Migraines: Reduces structural restrictions around the head and neck, naturally alleviating the pressure that triggers chronic pain.

  • Orthopedic & Jaw Issues: Provides targeted relief for scoliosis, TMJ (jaw) syndrome, and dental-related tension by releasing localized restrictions.

  • Motor-Coordination Impairments: Focuses on restoring physical balance, ease of movement, and fluid coordination throughout the musculoskeletal system.

Neurological & Traumatic Recovery

  • Brain & Spinal Injuries: Offers gentle, supportive care to assist the nervous system during recovery from concussions, traumatic brain injuries (TBI), and spinal strain.

  • Nervous System Regulation: Helps regulate and manage the physical toll of central nervous system disorders and chronic neurological stress.

  • Post-Surgical Healing: Assists the body in safely integrating, processing, and releasing tissue restrictions following invasive medical procedures.

Pediatric & Family Wellness

  • Conception, Pregnancy, & Birth: Supports both mother and baby through the immense physical and structural shifts of childbirth and postpartum recovery.

  • Pediatric & Infant Challenges: Provides exceptionally gentle care to help infants resolve developmental hurdles, nursing difficulties, or birth trauma.

  • Neurodiverse & Sensory Support: Offers a calming, predictable environment to encourage sensory regulation for individuals with Autism, ADHD, ADD, and learning differences.

Stress, Mood, & Immune Health

  • Emotional & Psychological Well-being: Uses trauma-informed touch to help the body process and ease the physical manifestations of PTSD, anxiety, and depression.

  • Stress-Related Burnout: Addresses chronic fatigue by releasing the deep, locked-in tension caused by long-term stress, restoring natural energy reserves.

  • Systemic & Immune Support: Improves sleep patterns, manages autoimmune discomfort, and provides gentle, supplemental comfort care during complex medical treatments.
