Craniosacral Therapy
Craniosacral therapy (CST) is a gentle but potent way of working with the body communicating with the cerebrospinal fluid using light touch. It supports your body’s innate ability to balance, restore and heal itself as well as helping to reduce stress and build underlying energy.
In a session, you will lie fully clothed, on a treatment table. You may become aware of heat, tingling, pulsations or other sensations during the treatment, and you are likely to feel a deep sense of relaxation.
Craniosacral Therapists are trained to feel motions in the body which are more subtle than the heartbeat and lungs breathing that we are all familiar with. Using a gentle touch without manipulation, Linnaea will interact with these rhythms to help relieve tensions and restrictions. Balance is restored which can have profound physical and psychological benefits and bring us back to our sympathetic nervous system.
Often, with subsequent treatments, clients find that they are much more able to access a state of stillness and calm whenever they need to and in everyday life.
By helping the central nervous system to perform at it best, Craniosacral therapy improves your body's ability to "self correct" from a spectrum of pain, illness and dysfunction including:
- Anxiety & Depression
- Chronic Pain
- Chronic Fatigue
- Fibromyalgia
- Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
