Vicky Cavanagh-Hodge reveals the secrets of CranioSacral Therapy (CST):

A puzzled look tends to cross the face of most people when I mention CranioSacral Therapy (CST).  As a relative newcomer to the holistic health world, CST is often veiled in mystery.  But mark my words, this is rapidly changing, as more and more people are drawn to this holistic approach to mind, body and soul wellbeing.

Developed in the United States in the 1970s, CST is the culmination of many years of research and trials by osteopathic physician, Dr John Upledger.

CST Taps Into Your Body’s Natural Healing Powers

Performed on a massage table whilst fully clothed, CST is a deeply relaxing, hands-on experience.

There is no greater expert on your wellbeing than you own body and by tapping into its natural healing powers, CST facilitates change in a way that honours each individual.

Get Long Term Relief

Treating symptoms will bring short-term relief, but by taking the time to unwind through the layers of dysfunction long-term relief can be achieved by resolving the underlying cause.  The root of many conditions lies in emotional issues we are holding on to and CST offers a gentle way of releasing what is no longer serving us.

If you are in pain, be it physical or emotional, then the body is already trying to tell you something.  Sometimes we just need a little help to hear what it is saying!

In addition to increased energy and immunity, CST can help with a wide range of conditions, including neck and back pain, digestive problems, fatigue, stress, sleep difficulties, headaches, migraine and TMJ dysfunction.
