Craniosacral therapy is a light touch, on-the-body therapy that’s incredibly gentle and incredibly effective. Craniosacral therapy works with the whole body by calming the central nervous system and can address a wide range of issues from tongue tie, migraines, neck tension, anxiety, chronic pain and more. Craniosacral therapy works with the central nervous system, the cerebral spinal fluid, as well as releasing tension throughout the tissues. During craniosacral therapy, clients remain fully clothed and lay on a large, foam-padded massage table, laying face up. We have pillows, table warmers and blankets to make sure you’re comfortable and at the right temperature.

For new clients, one of their main questions about craniosacral therapy is if it really works. Many people may have never heard of craniosacral therapy before, or confuse it with other alternative therapies such as energy work, reiki, massage or acupressure. Although there is relatively little large-scale research on the effectiveness of craniosacral therapies, that is largely because it hasn't been studied. The small studies and case studies that have been documented have shown positive results. Read more about the studies that support craniosacral therapy and the pillars that support its practice in our post What Does Craniosacral Therapy Do? Does Craniosacral Therapy Really Work?
