CranioSacral Therapy is great for headaches
CST is great for headaches, especially long-term headaches that no longer respond well to other medical approaches. I work with the membranes around the spine and brain. Injuries can create tiny stuck areas in this membrane that pull on the surrounding membranes. That pulling is passed along until it reaches a weak spot that screams.
Tight shrink wrap can squish the brain a little, or clamp down on blood flow deep in the brain. By finding stuck spots and teasing them apart, I can relieve the pulling and improve blood flow.
Or maybe your neck muscles have trigger points, which are tiny areas (the size of a lentil) that are tight and don’t let go. Blood vessels get to the brain by weaving between neck muscles. Tense neck muscles squeeze down on blood vessels, making it harder for blood to get up to the brain, or backing up the fluid flow from the brain to the body.
Or maybe there is some twisting that reduces blood flow in the cavernous sinuses in your brain, or in the glial (lymphatic) network in your brain. Brains need plumbers, too!
CST can really help reduce headaches. And it’s very relaxing. You’ll definitely snore. Extra points if you drool.
