Craniosacral Fascial Therapy Session

Service Description

Craniosacral fascial therapy (CFT) is a very gentle hands-on modality that combines two different therapies: craniosacral therapy and myofascial release. The fascial system is a web of all the connective tissue in the body that wraps around the brain and the spinal cord, and it reaches all the way down to the feet. CFT finds the fascial strain within the body and how it relates to the cranial sacral system (the cranial bones, the sacrum, the spine, and the cranial sacral fluid) and how that fascial strain affects the body system. CFT not only unwinds the physical body and the fascial system, but it also affects the nervous system, the brain, all the cranial nerves that run through the brain and the cranial structures. How do we get fascial strain: fetal life forward. Infants in fetal life are in a tight restricted position and when they are born, we see fascial strain even with a regular normal happy birth. This can be compounded with tethered oral ties such as tongue ties, lip ties, and other oral restrictions within the cranial dental system. From childhood to adulthood, life happens – accidents, injuries, surgeries, sedentary job or life, CFT addresses many issues. What issues can CFT help: fascial strain through accidents, injuries and surgeries, conditions such as migraines, headaches, sleep apnea, airway issues such as allergies, asthma, breastfeeding issues, reflux, colic, learning disorders, behavioral issues, ADHD, concussions, depression, anxiety, and more. If there is a relationship between the fascial strain and the condition, releasing the fascial strain and the craniosacral system so that fascia can move through the spinal fluid more effectively, allows the body to behave in a more optimal way. Please wear comfortable clothes that the practitioner can move you in. Sessions – 60 minutes. Note: for infants and small children, you may schedule a 30 minute session or anyone in the family who brings the child may use any remaining time available in a full hour session.
