Cranio-Sacral Therapy is a technique where a practitioner uses a featherweight touch to test restrictions of the cranial system. There is a mild cranial rhythm or pulse that can be felt along the cranial sutures. The normal rate is 8-12 beats per minute. When there is tension or stress at certain points in the body, the membranes are being pulled. Therefore, the body may be out of synchronization, causing ill health.

How Is It Administered?

How is cranial sacral therapy administered? Cranial sacral therapy is administered through monitoring the rhythm of the cerebrospinal fluid's flow through the system. Cranial sacral therapy practitioners attempt to balance the life force energy within the body. Because the movable skull, sacrum and coccyx are attached to membranes encompassing the cerebrospinal fluid, experienced clinicians can detect any motion.
Light, hands-on touch assists hydraulic forces (natural to the cranial sacral system) to improve the body's internal atmosphere; thus, strengthening its ability to heal itself. The brain sends messages down the spinal column to the sacrum and to the tip of the coccyx. Signals are then rerouted to all parts of the body through nerves departing the spinal column. By freeing tension from the spinal cord, the cerebral spinal flows more freely.
Cranial sacral therapy optimizes rhythm of the spinal fluid and influences the whole body. It is relaxing, safe and effective; and cranial sacral therapy may heal or alleviate numerous conditions including migraines, chronic fatigue, motor coordination impairments, stress and tension, and orthopedic problems. After cranial sacral therapy is administered, a common state of relaxation occurs and improves mental performance as well.
