Craniosacral therapy for teens and adults

Craniosacral therapy for adults to support stress relief, nervous system balance, chronic pain, and deep rest.

Just what exactly is craniosacral therapy (CST)?

Tension in the body’s fascia–connective tissue throughout the body–can prevent our own healing system from functioning optimally. Craniosacral therapy aims to find that tension in the fascia, and melt it away, resulting in a calmer, happier body, that just feels better.
