Is Craniosacral Therapy A Head Massage?
Clients often ask me if Craniosacral Therapy is similar to a massage. My playful response is, "It's like a massage for the soul.” Unlike traditional massage, the touch from a Craniosacral Therapist is as light as a nickel resting in your palm. This gentle touch allows the practitioner to feel the subtle flow of cerebral spinal fluid as it bathes the craniosacral system.
One of the most remarkable aspects of this technique is that the practitioner is trained to listen to the system without judgment or intention. This allows the client to receive the support they need in the moment, making them feel truly heard and supported.
As healthcare professionals, our ultimate goal is to help our clients feel better. However, with Craniosacral Therapy, the client is always in control of their healing process.
In this video, we explain what happens during atypical Craniosacral Therapy sessions and why this gentle technique is so powerful.
