Cranial Sacral Therapy

This gentle touch work is a healing modality that grew out of osteopathy. CST corrects imbalances in the fluid and membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord. This is important because this rhythmic cerebrospinal flow stimulates the body’s natural healing system. This kind of therapeutic work may be called “biodynamic” to remind us that every cell in our system, is connected to, and wishing well being for, our entire system. Cranio sacral fluid, (CSF) is very important to your skeletal, muscular, and immune systems, brain function, and thus even behavior patterns.

Consider the waves of the ocean, and what we see on the surface. The huge forces of the ocean, and also the peace and calm of the ocean plunge to great depths. What we can behold by looking at the ocean is only a small part of the total activity. By using our subtle touch and our intention with CST, we may contact and be an effective part of the entire being of our clients.

Much comfort and relief can be provided by the subtle contacts to skull, sacrum, and various other bones.


 

It is surprising how one may observe, especially in the horse, the difference after one or two sessions of equine cranial sacral work. For humans, the work largely affects the inner world of awareness, and although the client may observe great inner improvement the visible structural change is not as obvious as the horse.

Caramillo and Christina

Christina is a licensed psychotherapist and massage therapist, author, visionary, minister, and seminar facilitator with over three decades of experience in the human potential arena. She assists clients to reach their full potential both personally and spiritually by exploring and developing their natural talents, personal passions, and their genius.

The threads of masculine/feminine balance and synergy, spiritual compassion, and finding one’s sense of belonging in the world are special interests she weaves through her work. The term theo eroticism can best describe the way that the eternal sacred life moves within us as we remain open and connected with our bodies and with nature.

Christina and Visionary Consultants offer services and workshops that can make a profound, positive change to one’s personal healing and to one’s place of power in the world. Hildegard of Bingen, a visionary born in 1098, used a term term viriditas, meaning a greening power – the power of life pulsing within our universe. The pulsing of holiness and living breath is housed in our bodies, and our bodies are worlds without end, so long as there is life within our body. “Greening” is an important factor in Christina’s work. You can see more about greening, celtic prayer and healing at the website page on the Hearth of Belonging.


 

Therapy Explanation

This gentle touch work is a healing modality that grew out of osteopathy. CST corrects imbalances in the fluid and membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord. This is important because this rhythmic cerebrospinal flow stimulates the body’s natural healing system. This kind of therapeutic work may be called “biodynamic” to remind us that every cell in our system, is connected to, and wishing well being for, our entire system. Cranio sacral fluid, (CSF) is very important to your skeletal, muscular, and immune systems, brain function, and thus even behavior patterns.

Consider the ocean. We can see waves and undulations on the surface but the huge forces of the ocean are invisible. The muscular tension, the harmonious peace, the living organisms of the ocean plunge to great depths. What we can behold by looking at the ocean is only a small part of the total activity. As deep-sea divers might be equipped to experience the ocean’s depths, cranial sacral practitioners may use subtle touch and impeccable intention to contact and be an effective part of the entire being of our clients. The unimpeded flow of CSF allows balance and relief throughout our entire system.
