Craniosacral Therapy
60 min. | 90 min. | add-on
What to expect: Through delicate touch applied to key areas such as the head, spine, and sacrum, Craniosacral Therapy (CST) aims to restore balance, release tension, and promote the body's natural healing capabilities. This therapy can be booked as a standalone service or as an add-on to the Therapeutic Massage.
CST is a holistic approach that focuses on the gentle manipulation of the craniosacral system— comprising the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid surrounding the brain and spinal cord. This therapeutic modality promotes relaxation, reducing stress, and fostering overall well-being by addressing imbalances in the body's subtle rhythmic movements. CST is known for its gentle and subtle nature; during a session, you can expect the following sensations: - Light Touch: CST practitioners use very light touch, typically with their fingertips, to assess and manipulate the craniosacral system. The pressure applied is often much lighter than what you might experience in a traditional massage. - Slight Movements: The therapist may use delicate movements, such as gentle holds or light manipulations, on specific areas like the head, spine, and sacrum. These movements aim to influence the flow of cerebrospinal fluid and release any restrictions in the craniosacral system. - Deep Relaxation: Many people describe the experience as deeply relaxing. The light touch and subtle movements can induce a sense of calm and tranquility. - Warmth or Tingling Sensations: Some individuals report feeling sensations of warmth, tingling, or a sense of energy moving during or after a CST session. - Post-Session Effects: After a CST session, people often report feeling more balanced, with reduced tension and stress. Some find that they sleep better, experience improved mood, or notice relief from certain physical symptoms.
