What is CranioSacral Therapy?
CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle, hands-on technique that works with the natural rhythms of the body to release tension, improve nervous system function, and support whole-body healing.
This therapy uses very light touch to help reduce restrictions in the craniosacral system — the membranes and fluid surrounding the brain and spinal cord.
CST is:
- Light touch (about the weight of a nickel)
- Safe, non-invasive, and deeply relaxing
- Supportive of the nervous system and fascia
- Performed fully clothed, with no forceful techniques
At Wake Medical Massage, LLC, CranioSacral Therapy is provided by a practitioner trained through the Upledger Institute, with advanced experience in clinical applications.
Benefits of CranioSacral Therapy
Many clients seek CranioSacral Therapy for support with:
- Headaches & migraines
- TMJ (jaw) pain & facial tension
- Chronic neck & back pain
- Chronic stress, nervous system tension, & sleep disturbances
- Post-surgical recovery support
- Nervous system regulation
- Fibromyalgia & chronic fatigue
Each session is tailored to your comfort level and designed to promote balance throughout the body.
Nervous System Support & Stress Regulation
Long-term stress, unresolved trauma, and nervous system overload can cause the body to remain in a constant state of tension, affecting sleep, breathing, posture, digestion, and overall comfort. Over time, these stress patterns may become stored within the fascia and nervous system.
CranioSacral Therapy offers a gentle, hands-on approach designed to support the body’s natural ability to regulate, restore, and return to balance. Using very light touch, this work focuses on calming the nervous system, improving tissue mobility, and encouraging healthy flow within the craniosacral system.
Many individuals seek CST when experiencing chronic pain, fatigue, anxiety, poor sleep, or a sense of dysregulation in the body. Rather than forcing change, CST helps create the conditions for the body to release tension and access its own healing capacity.
Sessions are slow, intentional, and deeply supportive. Clients remain fully clothed throughout the session, and no deep pressure is used. This approach is often well-suited for individuals who are sensitive to intense bodywork or who experience physical symptoms associated with chronic stress.
While CranioSacral Therapy does not treat mental health conditions, many clients report benefits such as:
- Clearer thinking and improved focus
- Easier breathing and reduced muscular holding
- Improved digestion and posture
- Deeper relaxation and improved sleep
- A greater sense of calm and nervous system regulation
For some clients, beginning with one session per week for three weeks provides a supportive introduction and allows the body to build upon progress over time.
If stress, chronic tension, or nervous system overload is affecting your body, CranioSacral Therapy may offer gentle support.
