Craniosacral Therapy


Craniosacral Therapy is a gentle, non-invasive technique that helps restore balance to the body by releasing tension and improving function.
From birth and throughout childhood, CST is recommended as a routine therapy to support healthy development, nervous system regulation, and optimal feeding, breathing, and movement patterns. By addressing restrictions early, CST helps babies and young children grow with greater ease and comfort.
In addition to routine care, CST is also highly effective in addressing specific concerns, including:
