5 reasons to choose craniosacral therapy
CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is gentle bodywork modality that encourages healing for your nervous system, mind, and body. This modality integrates various myofascial + tissue release techniques, assessment + regulation of the craniosacral rhythm, energywork and more to allow your body to self regulate on a multisystem level. This work centers around tuning into your system’s innate wisdom and facilitating shifts towards balance.
There are many reasons to choose CranioSacral Therapy, but in this article I’ve focused on 5 reasons that one might choose this beautiful modality.
Reason #1 Stress + Overwhlem
When we are stressed, overwhelmed, or burnt out, it can be hard for our bodies to be adaptable enough to self-regulate.CST uses gentle techniques that allow your body to deeply relax so that release, repatterning, and regulation becomes possible.
I like to describe CST as a reset for your nervous system.
Reason #2 Chronic Tension + Pain
For chronic tension, pain, or headaches/migraines the gentle approach of CST can unwind layers of stored restriction in the tissues and fascia and create lasting relief.
We may not even notice how much tension we’ve been holding onto until it is released. Sometimes we’ve experienced tension or discomfort for so long that it has become our normal, but even long-held discomfort can soften and shift. Change is possible.
Reason #3 Emotional Release + Big Life Changes
Unprocessed emotions and traumatic experiences can overwhelm or disorient your body’s natural regulating systems and imprint suboptimal patterns in the body. When our body is stuck in a limiting coping pattern, CST can support healing from the inside out and help you restore balance... Quietly, gently, deeply... without you having to relive the experience.
Reason #4 High Sensitivity + Neurodivergence
CST is supportive for empaths, highly sensitives, and folks who experience neurodivergence. Gentle and non-invasive techniques can help ground and regulate folks who are deeply feeling/sensing, affected by the energy of others/the collective consciousness, or simply process + experience in unique ways.
Reason #5 Desire to connect to intuition + cultivate self-awareness
CST helps reconnect you to your center—body, mind, and energy. Maybe you’re feeling off, or maybe you just want to connect more deeply to yourself. When we live in our center we begin to deepen our understanding of our own energy and how our bodies communicate with us, The more attuned we are, the easier it is to access our intuition and innate wisdom. From this place we are able to trust in ourselves and trust in the flow of life. When we have self trust, the whole world opens up to us. magic becomes possible.
With an intuitive and grounded approach, I use CranioSacral Therapy and Vibrational Medicine techniques that are designed to address limiting physical, energetic, and emotional patterns stored in the body. This work is intended to regulate your Nervous System, liberate outdated coping mechanisms, and integrate resonance so that you can circle into your own center and feel at home within yourself.
I hold sacred space and facilitate shifts toward wholeness. The innate wisdom of your body holds the answers.
