Stimulate Self Healing
Craniosacral Therapy focuses on the subtle, involuntary movements within the body, believed to reflect the state of health in the tissues. These movements, often described as a rhythmic expansion and contraction, are present in all parts of the body.
How it works
The goal of craniosacral treatment is to promote the natural movement of tissues, supporting the body’s ability to heal itself. The treatment may involve gentle manual techniques targeting joints, muscles, bones, and connective tissues. You may also receive advice on pain management and exercises tailored to your specific condition.
