CranioSacral Therapy
Gentle CranioSacral Therapy (CST) for migraine relief, anxiety, chronic pain, and nervous system regulation. Trauma-informed therapy using light touch to release fascial restrictions and restore balance.
Understanding CranioSacral Therapy
CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle, hands-on therapy that works with your body's natural healing ability. Using light touch - often no heavier than the weight of a nickel - this therapy evaluates and enhances your craniosacral system, which includes the flow of cerebrospinal fluid from your skull down your spine.
How Your Craniosacral System Works
Your craniosacral system creates a subtle rhythm throughout your body as cerebrospinal fluid flows around your brain and spinal cord. When restrictions develop in the fascia (connective tissue), this natural rhythm becomes disrupted, leading to pain, dysfunction, and emotional imbalance.
During a session, I use my hands to gently assess this rhythm and identify areas where your fascia is stuck or restricted. Through light touch and directed energy, I help release these restrictions, allowing your nervous system to reset and your body to return to its natural state of balance.
Why Ultra-Gentle Touch Is So Powerful
Unlike firm pressure therapies, CranioSacral therapy uses an incredibly light touch. Many clients are surprised by how effective such minimal pressure can be. This gentleness makes it uniquely suited for people who:
- Are highly sensitive to touch or pressure
- Have experienced trauma or abuse
- Struggle with anxiety or panic disorders
- Need nervous system regulation and support
The Healing Integration Experience
CST isn't just physical therapy - it often creates space for profound emotional and spiritual healing. Many clients experience:
- Complete nervous system reset and deep peace
- Spontaneous release of stored emotions or traumatic memories
- Enhanced mental clarity and emotional processing
- Feeling deeply "grounded" and reconnected to themselves
- Significant improvement in sleep quality and anxiety levels
Creating Safety Through Trauma-Informed Care
As a trauma-informed practitioner, I understand that true healing happens when you feel completely safe. Sessions are entirely client-directed, with you maintaining full control over the experience. You stay fully dressed, and I continuously check in to ensure your comfort and consent throughout our work together.

Frequently Asked Questions

CranioSacral Therapy uses extremely light touch - often no heavier than the weight of a nickel. Unlike deep tissue massage that can be painful, CST is so gentle that many people are surprised by how effective it can be. This makes it perfect for people sensitive to pressure or dealing with trauma.
Most people benefit from 4-6 sessions to see lasting changes, though some notice improvements after just one session. The number of sessions depends on your specific concerns and how your body responds. I work with you to develop a plan that fits your needs and goals.
Yes, it's common for emotions to surface during or after sessions as your nervous system releases stored tension and trauma. This is a natural part of the healing process. As a trauma-informed practitioner, I create a safe space for whatever comes up and help you process these experiences.
CST is excellent for psychedelic integration because it helps you process and integrate profound experiences in your body. The gentle approach supports nervous system regulation after intense journeys, helping you feel more grounded and connected to the insights gained.
