Cranial Therapeutics

The human body is extraordinarily adaptable to changes within and around it. In fact, we are constantly experiencing hundreds of complex internal changes in order to achieve and maintain our balance. These occur within the central nervous system, the muscles, the fascia and skeletal structures as well as our internal organs and even emotionally with our outlook and sense of well being. It is due to our flexibility to respond to our environment that we are able to deal with Trauma. Trauma includes both emotional and physical events.

Structural changes due to trauma often result in decreased circulation which leads to diminished nervous system communication and nutrients and oxygen become unable to reach these areas. This can manifest as pain or reoccuring injuries such as a ankle that gets sprained repeatedly or gall stones.

A Cranial therapist specializes in resolving the trapped forces that create the patterns of imbalance and disease. This involves the practitioner utilizing their hands to listen to the body's subtle rhythms and to help correct proper movement and function.

Cranial therapeutics can help migraines, arthritis, whiplash or sciatica. It can also help disorders of the immune system, including recurrent infections and autoimmune disorders. It is also helpful for any neurological or stress induced disorder including, temporomandibular disorder, seizures, attention deficit disorder and depression.

Cranial therapy is non-invasive, gentle and relaxing and can be utilized newborn babies to people transitioning into death. It is highly useful for women during all stages of pregnancy, pre and post-partum as well as during labor. Cranial is also helpful for children and especially infants to help shift any birth trauma that may have occurred. Cranial therapy does not interfere with other therapies and there are no contraindications.
