Craniosacral Therapy
A soft, subtle manual therapy working with the craniosacral system — easing tension in the dural membranes around the brain and spinal cord, soothing autonomic nervous system overload, and relieving chronic headaches.
Evidence-Based Hands-On Physical Therapy
How Craniosacral Therapy works in your body.
Craniosacral therapy uses light pressure (less than 5 grams) to assess and assist fluid movement in the craniosacral system — the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid protecting the brain and spinal cord. By releasing subtle restrictions in the cranial sutures, sacrum, and dural system, it reduces sympathetic 'fight-or-flight' nerve tone and promotes deep autonomic healing.
Cranial Sutures, Dural Membranes, Temporal Bones, Sphenobasilar Junction, & Sacrum.
Patients dealing with chronic tension headaches, TMJ jaw clenching, stress exhaustion, insomnia, or anxiety tightness.
