Craniosacral Therapy (CST) Craniosacral Therapy (CST) is a safe and natural therapy. Discovered through a 40-year research programme led by William Garner Sutherland, an American osteopath, which began a century ago, it has developed a reputation as the most subtle and gentle of all the hands-on therapies. Life force, which is the energy that sparks off all life, is called the Breath of Life in craniosacral terminology. The Breath of Life is conveyed throughout the body by the body fluids, particularly by the cerebrospinal fluid which flows around the brain and spinal cord. As the fluids rhythmically move through the body all of the physical structures - the bones, muscles, membranes, ligaments and even the cells themselves, go along for the ride. In response to life's stresses and strains, shock or injury (physical, mental, emotional and/or spiritual) the body's tissues will contract, impeding the natural flow and rhythms, which in turn can have a knock-on effect throughout the body. The highly sensitive hands and fingers of a craniosacral therapist, which can sense these natural rhythms, can facilitate the body to restore itself to a natural state of health and well-being. It is completely safe and non-invasive; the therapist uses a very light touch to sense with the hands, the subtle, innermost rhythms of the body. These rhythms are usually accessed through lightly holding the feet, the head and/or the base of the spine. The patient lies down and remains fully clothed throughout the process.
