Craniosacral Osteopathy is a gentle, hands-on therapy that focuses on the craniosacral system—the membranes and fluids surrounding the brain and spinal cord. This system plays a vital role in protecting the central nervous system and maintaining overall body health. By addressing imbalances in this system, craniosacral osteopathy supports the body’s natural healing processes and restores harmony.
How Does Craniosacral Osteopathy Work?
Using light touch, a manual osteopath evaluates the craniosacral rhythm and identifies areas of tension or restriction. Techniques are then applied to release these restrictions, enhance the flow of cerebrospinal fluid, and improve the function of the nervous system.
