what is CST?

CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle, hands-on approach that uses whole-body assessment to identify and release areas of restriction that may contribute to pain, tension, and dysfunction. While its name refers to the craniosacral system, CST is a whole-body therapy that supports the nervous system and overall well-being.

The craniosacral system includes the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord. This important system helps to:

  • Cushion and protect the brain and spinal cord.

  • Nourish the central nervous system.

  • Remove waste from the brain and spinal cord.

  • Support healthy nervous system function.

At the heart of CranioSacral Therapy is the belief that the body is constantly communicating. By listening to the body's subtle cues, CST helps identify areas of restriction and supports the body's natural ability to restore balance and heal.

The body already knows. Healing begins when we listen.
