Craniosacral Therapy

Craniosacral therapy is a gentle but potent way of working with the body using light touch. CST works with the whole person and changes may occur in body, mind and emotions during and after sessions.

When a practitioner places their hands lightly on you during a therapy session, they are using them to listen to you in much the same way that a counsellor might listen to your words. Your body responds to this sensitive touch by beginning to listen to itself.  A feeling that you have been heard in the truest sense of the word is a common experience during and after a CST session.

CST supports your body’s innate ability to balance, restore and heal itself, as well as helping to reduce stress and build your underlying energy. The practitioner senses tensions in the body and helps to release them in a supported and comfortable way. During or after a session you may feel calm and energised, with increased clarity of mind and a feeling of well-being.

After a session there is occasionally a short period of adjustment as part of the healing. Sometimes people report relief after only one or two sessions. For long-standing problems further sessions may be needed. Some people find they benefit from regular treatment over an extended period and say that, as well as noticing improvement in their physical or emotional symptoms, they feel they have increased self-awareness and improved quality of life.

A session lasts 75 minutes, fees being £65, although less time maybe needed in some instances.
