FAQ'S .....CRANIAL BALANCING & CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY

Can cranial bones move?

Our cranial bones do not fuse but remain distinct and separate throughout our lives. Each bone has its distinct movement. The spaces between the bones are called sutures and are filled with connective tissue, nerves and blood vessels, and do posses a natural rhythmic motion.

What is different about CST?

Through the simplicity of gentle listening touch, CST offers a distinctive stillness that allows your mind and body to rest deeply and begin to restore a natural balance. CST recognises and assists the connections between body, mind and emotions. In the peaceful space created during a session these strands can become more fully integrated.

How does CST relate to psychotherapies and counselling?

CST is a perfect complement to talking therapies. Physically processing emotional issues and trauma held in the body supports the work of counselling and psychotherapy.

What do I wear?

You’ll typically remain fully clothed during the treatment, so wear comfortable clothing to your appointment. Your session will last about an hour, and you’ll likely begin by lying down on your back on the massage table. I may begin at your head, feet, or near the middle of your body.

Using five grams of pressure, I will gently hold your head to listen to subtle rhythms. If I detect it’s needed, I may gently press or reposition you to normalise the flow of the cerebrospinal fluid.
