Cranial Sacral Therapy

A non-invasive, gentle form of alternative medicine with the purpose of bringing the
Central nervous system into harmony. This is accomplished through a specific protocol of specialized techniques to aid and assist the flow of cerebrospinal fluid throughout the head and spine. The integrity of this system has a significant impact on our health and wellbeing. Indications are for any type of trauma or injury to the body or head or moderate to severe nervous stress. Cranial sacral therapy seeks to restore misaligned bones to their proper position and is thought to eliminate the negative effects of stress as well as provide relief from migraine headaches, neck and back pain, TMJ disorder (the inflammation of the joint that connects the lower jaw to the skull), whiplash injuries and insomnia.

Reflexology

Reflexology is a branch of massage that focuses solely on the hands and feet. Originally developed as “zone therapy” in the early twentieth century, reflexology uses specifically targeted points on the feet to send signals to the brain and balance the nervous system. The feet and hands are a map of the body, the specific reflex points correspond to all organs, glands, and systems. By stimulating these particular reflex points homeostasis can be brought to the entire body.

Reflexology is a technique in which pressure is applied to specific points on the feet to promote relaxation and improve overall health. Pressing these points with the fingers and thumbs is thought to encourage healthy functions in the corresponding areas of the body.
Endorphins are released throughout the entire body, reducing stress and returning the body to equilibrium. Reflexology has been known to provide relief from ailments such as tension headaches, arthritis, digestive disorders, and back pain.
