Why Cranial Sacral Therapy Works
Cranial Sacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle, hands-on method of evaluating and enhancing the functioning of a physiological body system called the craniosacral system, comprised of central nervous system impulses, bone, membranes and cerebrospinal fluid. The central nervous system impulses cause bone and membranes that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord to move continuously. They also cause cerebrospinal fluid to flow continuously in and around the brain and spinal cord. Cerebrospinal fluid is involved with lymphatics and the immune system. If there are restrictions anywhere in the body that prevent any of this movement and flow from being able to occur, over time this can impact the central nervous system and contribute to many problems such as low back pain, neck pain, TMJ disfunction, hip pain, sciatica, constant stress and anxiety, head pain, tinnitus, digestion problems, poor sleep, immune system problems and more. Restrictions in the cranial sacral system can be caused by injuries, stress, sustained tensions in the body, having a baby, dental problems, postural problems, and more. Nowadays more doctors who understand cranial sacral therapy recommend mothers and their newborns have a cranial sacral therapy session to see if the delivery process has caused any cranial sacral system restrictions in the baby or mother. Cranial sacral therapy has proven to bring remarkable results in a variety of conditions. At the Innovative Pain Release Center David Herring has seen firsthand how CST can transform lives. But it's not just our experience that speaks volumes; research backs up the efficacy of this therapeutic practice.
The Science Behind CST
The foundation of Cranial Sacral Therapy lies in its ability to alleviate stress and pain, enhancing the body's own healing capabilities. It's based on the ability of gentle hands on manipulations to free up restrictions of flow of the cerebrospinal fluid pulsing around the brain and spinal cord, and restrictions to necessary movement of bone and membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord. Freeing up these restrictions promotes balance and wellness. CST is given to the fully clothed body, is not painful, and very relaxing. It offers ways to release deep seated stress as well.
Research studies offer concrete evidence supporting CST's effectiveness. For instance, a study published in The Clinical Journal of Pain found that CST significantly reduced neck pain intensity and improved neck function, compared to a control group. Another study in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine reported that patients with fibromyalgia experienced a reduction in symptoms, including improved sleep quality and decreased pain levels, after undergoing CST.
