Cranial-sacral therapy is a gentle technique that uses a light non-invasive approach to
problems of pain and dysfunction. Natural physiological activities of the body are facilitated
to achieve significant corrective changes in the recipient. Subtle body movements which
coincide with rhythmical changes in cerebrospinal fluid pressure are palpated and facilitated,
which results in improved functioning of the nervous system, relaxation of traumatized
tissues throughout the body, better structural alignment of the skeletal system, and the
release of restrictions resulting from accumulated trauma.
The therapeutic purpose of cranial sacral therapy is to aid the body toward regaining normal cranial sacral motion, which is associated with and necessary for a truly healthy state. It
has been used successfully with many health problems, such as headaches, chronic fatigue,
TMJ disorders, fibromyalgia-type symptoms, and neck and back pain. It is often used as a preventive health measure, mainly because of its capacity to relieve stress and induce deep relaxation.
Understand the anatomy/physiology of the cranial-sacral system.
Learn the whole body flexion-extension motion pattern of the cranial-sacral system.
Develop palpatory skills for the detection and evaluation of the cranial-sacral system.
Learn a practical sequence for removal of impediments to a properly functioning
Develop full body facilitation skills using light-touch, soft tissue techniques.
Learn release techniques and indications for removing restrictions from the cranial-sacral
Be able to recognize the various contra-indications and know how to respond to them in the therapeutic setting.
Learn to integrate these skills with other therapeutic modalities.
