Craniosacral Foundations: Gentle Manual Therapy to Ease Pain, Improve Mobility and Function Across the Lifespan

CE Hours 2

About this live event

In this live interactive webinar we’ll cover the fascinating technique known as Craniosacral therapy. It’s a whole-body approach to soft tissue mobilization/myofascial bodywork that employs light pressure on key structures to facilitate the body’s intrinsic healing processes. Imagine being able to invite the body to release tension, modulate pain, and boost the function of the neurofascial system with precise gentle manual therapy. Gentle pressure is used for assessment of tissue mobility, using specific motions to encourage the remodeling of restricted fascia, relieving pain and abnormal pressure on multiple body systems. Review history and development of CST, physiology of the craniosacral fascial systems, assess the 3-D transverse fascial planes, and the craniosacral/fascial relationships. Discover how to evaluate fascial strain patterns using general and local listening and balance testing to identify tension patterns. Featured interventions include still point induction, sacral, frontal, parietal, temporal, occipital and mandibular releases. Facilitate motion in the extremities, joints, cranial vault, cranial base, thoracic outlet, pelvic floor and respiratory diaphragms. Discuss research on the benefits of CST to improve quality of life for multiple conditions including myofascial pain, fibromyalgia, dizziness, balance disorders, post-concussion, TBI, whiplash, chronic pain, anxiety, depression, stress, hyperactivity, ADHD, TMJ, PTSD, dementia, sleep difficulties, and other functional systemic disorders involving the musculoskeletal, nervous, digestive, respiratory and circulatory systems. When people suffer from conditions that traditional medicine provides limited benefits for, they search for more natural ways to resolve their problems. Be ready to offer CST as a natural approach with more emerging studies demonstrating its effectiveness for multiple conditions.

Learning Objectives

  • Identify mobility impairments by palpating craniosacral rhythm and restriction patterns.
  • List indications and contraindications for craniosacral therapy.
  • Demonstrate craniosacral releases for the cranial vault, transverse fascial diaphragms, spine and extremities with still point induction, unwinding, compression and distraction techniques to modify abnormal tension in the neuromusculoskeletal system.
  • Discuss current research regarding the efficacy of craniosacral therapy to address multiple impairments across the lifespan.
