CranioSacral Therapy

Engaging your Body's Wisdom and Innate Ability to Heal Itself

CranioSacral Therapy has the potential of providing dramatic help to many people whom conventional medicine has proven ineffective. It acts to clear any restrictions and deep seated patterns that are found anywhere in the body.

What Is It?

This gentle hands on treatment is very calming and involves very light pressure to the head, spinal cord and sacrum (base of the spine). People often say they leave the session ‘floating on air‘.

Highly Beneficial For:

• Concussions: Head injuries, Autism, Depression, Seizures Headaches and Chronic neck and back pain: This therapy releases the compressions found in the neck and head that cause chronic pain and dysfunction
• Stress Reduction: It helps our nervous system respond to stress and maintain balance
• Trauma: This therapy locates and clears patterns of trauma in the body. It is highly beneficial to come in soon after any trauma (ie: Motor Vehicle Accident) to allow for a faster recovery.

Visceral Massage

This is a light or sometimes deep massage to release the tension and restrictions found in such organs as stomach, liver, bladder or digestive tract.

Highly Beneficial For:

• Constipation
• Irritable Bowel Syndrome
• PMS
• Acid reflux: This is a very common complaint that often shows great results with this work.

Why should I have this massage?

Here’s just three reasons:

1. Engage your body’s own wisdom and intrinsic ability to heal itself.

2. Heal on many levels. Some people find they have emotional releases during or after this work. Some people don’t notice a thing. When the body releases tension, any emotional charge attached has a chance to be released. This can be very healing on many levels of our being.

3. Allow for new life and function. Many deep seated patterns are held within the viscera and create long term issues within our body system. When this is released, there is an opportunity for new life and function within the body.

Exploring the Healing Effects of the MedX Phototherapy Laser

Phototherapy exposes the cells of the body to light, and particular wavelengths of light are able to produce photochemical reactions, stimulating the cells of the body into producing more energy. This increase in energy levels allows the cells to work more effectively in properly balancing the cellular components, so that the cells can function properly. The laser light functions as biochemical energy and improves the efficiency of the body's healing capabilities. The result is that the body is able to heal itself in a shorter period of time.

Some of the unique healing effects of MedX Phototherapy include:

• Increased cell metabolism
• Improved localized blood circulation
• Development of collagen and muscle tissue
• Relief from acute and chronic pain
• Reduced localized inflammation and edema
• Stimulation for wound healing and tissue repair
• Stimulation of the immune system
• Stimulation of nerve function
