WHAT IS CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY?
CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is a hands on, manual approach that enhances the body's natural healing capabilities. Like the pulse of the cardiovascular system, the CranioSacral System has a rhythm that can be felt throughout the body.
Using a light touch (weight of a nickel) our skilled physical therapists located in Pittsburgh at Anchor Physical Therapy can monitor this rhythm at specific body points to detect the source of the restriction or stress. Once this located, the therapist can assist the natural movement of the fluid and soft tissue to help the body self-correct and facilitate the release of the restrictions.
