Alternative Healing Information – Craniosacral Therapy Releases
Restrictions and Balances the Body

Cranial sacral therapy, or correctly spelled craniosacral therapy defines a very gentle alternative healing
technique that gently helps the body restore balance and health.

This therapeutic model is often an add on skill of energy healers, massage therapists, and bodyworkers. A
therapeutic session can help the body to release deeply held patterns of disease both physically and psychologically.

We all encounter traumas during a lifetime, emotionally as well as physically. The effects of these traumas
often accumulate throughout a life whether it be from the result of an injury, illness, or emotional upset.
Through time the body holds the effects of these traumas in our tissues and this holding often leads to other
types of ill-health and dysfuction later in life unless the stored energy is able to release.

This is where cranioscaral therapy comes in. It is an exceptionally powerful and gentle healing therapy. It
can also benefit almost any person who is suffering from something as simple as a minor ache or pain to more
chronic health problems.

When you visit a practitioner they will have you lay on a table fully clothed. The treatment room will be
a quiet and a peaceful space where you can relax during your treatment. Many clients say they feel a sense
of lightness or expansion during a treatment. The therapist will first work to diagnosis, and secondly to
treat whatever ailment or symptom you are experiencing. With very light contact on the cranium and the sacrum
(or head and tailbone) the practitioner can tell where you may have restrictions in you body tissues, fluids,
or energy.

Once the therapist tunes into your body’s needs, they will gently work to create a cranio sacral release and
balance your body.

Cranio-Sacral Therapy is certainly gentle yet it is also an extremely powerful form of treatment. It is becoming
increasingly recognized for the depth of its influence and the comprehensive range of its therapeutic effects.
Cranio-sacral therapy offers a way to to resolve issues that are not helped by other means.

For example babies are subjected to trama from the birth experience. This type of alternative and holistic
therapy can greatly aid a baby by helping their little body balance. Many problems that young children face
