Craniosacral Therapy
Movement is fundamental to life and within our bodies there are various well known rhythms - the heart, lungs and intestines expand and contract rhythmically to keep us healthy. Dr William Gardiner Sutherland, the founder of Cranial Osteopathy, studied the skull bones and discovered movement and rhythmic motion in the bones, and also in all the fluids, cells and tissues of the body. This is known as Craniosacral Motion.
Craniosacral Motion is a subtle tide-like rhythm throughout the whole body and is essential to the health of all the systems of the body. Restrictions, either within the Craniosacral Motion, or elsewhere, disturb this and can lead to ill health and affect well-being.
Craniosacral Therapy is a gentle and subtle approach that works with these rhythms. It can be used to treat a wide variety of conditions including headaches, migraines, TMJ / jaw problems, backache, joint problems, exhaustion and fatigue. It is suitable for all ages.
