Craniosacral Therapy

---

Craniosacral therapy is a light-touch therapy that can have profound effects on your health. It helps to release tension deep in your body to relieve pain and dysfunction, improving whole body health and wellness. Craniosacral primarily works with the nervous system, although it can work with any body system. As you live life, you endure stresses and strains that create tension in your body, tightening the tissues, compromising the function of the nervous system. Craniosacral releases those tensions, allowing the body to relax and self-correct. By freeing the body of tension, you can reduce pain, reduce the effects of stress and become more resistant to illness. 

A typical session will last 60 minutes, although Dr Preeta also offers 30-minute sessions. You will remain fully clothed on the table in a comfortable position. She will begin her evaluation with gentle touch at the head and neck. As she tunes in to restrictions in the tissues, she will move along the body at the spine and joints, releasing those restrictions with gentle pressure. What you experience will be an individual experience from deeper breathing, feeling heat, feeling pulsing, feeling tension and pain release and a general sense of deep relaxation. Dr Preeta will recommend how many sessions you will need and how often. 

Dr Preeta also encourages craniosacral for infants and children. Sessions are usually shorter, up to 30 minutes. Your child can lay on the table by themselves or with you, sit in your lap or even sit or stand or move around. Craniosacral is adaptable to position.
