Cranial Sacral therapy is a very gentle holistic approach to help balance bones in the skull and balance the central nervous system to reduce stress and its devastating impact on the body.
The skull has 22 bones, 8 cranial bones and 14 facial bones. Inside your skull sit your brain and 3 major endocrine glands. These glands control just about everything your body does, from making us feel happy (serotonin) to digestive juices to sleeping. It is essential that these glands can do what they are made to do. If restricted the body can manifest many different symptoms including digestive disorders, insomnia, stress, vertigo, tinnitus, seizures and epilepsy, headaches, hay fever, sinus problems etc etc.
Gone are the days where it is thought that the bones in the skull are fused together to form 1 solid block. They do move and this has been proved by William Garner Sutherland in the 20th Century who created a helmet to experiment on his own head. The helmet was made of straps that tightened in different directions and stopped movement from his own skull. He noticed that as the restrictions formed his body manifested symptoms such as headaches, lower back pain, digestive issues and much more. When the tension was released his pains subsided. This experiment gathered momentum around the Osteopathic universities in the USA and a huge research started to prove that cranial bone do in fact move.
At the beginning of every treatment a muscle test is performed to find out exactly what is going on in the body which is why KORE therapy works so well. It gets to the root of a problem and highlights to the brain what needs to be balanced and starts to heal itself.
This treatment is so gentle that it can be performed on children.
