Craniosacral Therapy or CST® (Ask for Dori)
CST is a form of alternative therapy used to assess and enhance the functions of the craniosacral system. Practitioners manipulate the bones from the skull to the sacrum with the intent of removing restrictions in the flow of cerebrospinal fluid. This can help to relieve stress, migraines, TMJ syndrome, chronic pain conditions such as fibromyalgia, neck and back pain, and enhance the body's overall health.
