Tension Relief with Cranio Sacral Therapy
Cranio Sacral Therapy or CST focuses on the gentle placement of hands to help release tension in your body’s connective tissue. This is known as “fascia” (pronounced “fash-ee-uh”). Fascia is the Latin word for band. It’s a casing found throughout your body that holds your organs, glands, nerves, muscles, blood vessels, brain and spinal cord. The fascia forms a body-wide connective tissue network.
The human body is interconnected, both structurally and functionally. This means that one area of your body can affect another.
CST claims to achieve these outcomes by improving cerebrospinal fluid flow, reducing tissue tension, and enhancing overall nervous system function. Read More Here
