How it works
Because it is so gentle and nurturing, Cranio Sacral therapy is a particularly good choice during pregnancy and for newborns and young children. Benefitting them throughout their growth, supporting their emotional journey, as well as soothing the many bumps and tumbles of growing up, Cranio Sacral therapy promotes capacity to bond, attach and love, to find ease and peace. This has a positive effect on the whole family.

“As the twig is bent, so the tree inclines.”
(W. G. Southerland – founder of Cranio Sacral therapy)
​
First developed by William Southerland, this technique stimulates and supports the body’s healing through focussing on the subtle movement of the cerebro-spinal fluid (CSF) within the membranes that enfold the brain and spinal cord, as well as deeper rhythmic movement throughout the body. Though these fluid movements cannot usually be seen, they can be measured by sensitive electronic equipment and the trained therapist can feel and interact with them through the lightest touch of their hands.
When restrictions to this fluid flow are released, the whole body reorganises at its core, restoring and balancing bio-magnetic fields within and around the body and deeper still to affect the spirit. This is the intelligence of our organism in action.

“No problem can be solved from the same level at which is was created.”
(Albert Einstein)
People may come for Cranio Sacral therapy with acute and chronic ailments and pain in the body, or for mental or emotional issues. These can be resolved as the therapy settles the nervous and hormonal systems, relieves and resolves muscular, skeletal and fascial tensions and misalignments and supports our physiology through life. Often unexplained symptoms which plague us and are not helped by other means resolve with Cranio Sacral therapy.
