"CST was pioneered and developed by osteopathic physician John E. Upledger following extensive scientific studies from 1975 to 1983 at Michigan State University, where he served as a
clinical researcher and Professor of Biomechanics.
CST is a gentle, hands-on method of evaluating and enhancing the
functioning of a physiological body system called the craniosacral system - comprised of the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid
that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord.
Using a soft touch generally no greater than 5 grams, or about
the weight of a nickel, practitioners release restrictions in the craniosacral system to improve the functioning of the central
nervous system.
By complementing the body's natural healing processes, CST is increasingly used as a preventive health
measure for its ability to bolster resistance to disease, and is effective for a wide range of medical problems associated
with pain and dysfunction, including:"
* Migraine Headaches
* Chronic Neck and
Back Pain
* Motor-Coordination Impairments
* Colic
* Autism
*
Central Nervous System Disorders
* Orthopedic Problems
* Traumatic
Brain and Spinal Cord Injuries
* Scoliosis
* Infantile Disorders
* Learning
Disabilities
* Chronic Fatigue
* Emotional Difficulties
* Stress
and Tension-Related Problems
* Fibromyalgia and other Connective-Tissue Disorders
* Temporomandibular
Joint Syndrome (TMJ)
* Neurovascular or Immune Disorders
* Post-Traumatic Stress
Disorder
* Post-Surgical Dysfunction
