Chapter 54 Craniosacral Therapy
OVERVIEW.
Craniosacral therapy (CST) is a noninvasive light touch therapy that explores skull and pelvis mobility, facial integrity, and a craniosacral rhythm with the aim of normalizing body structures and promoting healing. The belief is that an absence of these movements suggests a diminished expression of health. The approach involves locating and feeling a rhythm (using 5 grams of touch), finding facial distortions, and then following the tissue movement in order to facilitate a release.1
