CranioSacral Therapy (CST) involves gentle manipulation of the skull, spine, and sacrum to address restrictions in the craniosacral system. This system encompasses the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid surrounding the brain and spinal cord. Individuals seeking such treatments often utilize location-based search terms to find practitioners in their vicinity.
The potential benefits of CST include relief from headaches, neck pain, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders, and chronic pain conditions. Proponents suggest that CST can improve overall well-being by optimizing the function of the central nervous system. The historical context involves osteopathic medicine and the development of manual therapy techniques to influence physiological processes.
