CranioSacral Therapy

CranioSacral Therapy Page Language: CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle, non-invasive form of alternative bodywork. Nikole uses exceptionally light touch to perceive and influence the subtle rhythm of cerebrospinal fluid flowing around the brain and spinal cord (the craniosacral system). The therapy aims to identify and release restrictions within this system, believed to affect the central nervous system and overall health. Proponents suggest benefits include deep relaxation, relief from headaches, TMJ, neck and back pain, reduced stress and tension, and support for the body’s self-healing capabilities by enhancing central nervous system function and promoting balance.

SomatoEmotional Release (SER)Nikole has received training in CranioSacral SomatoEmotional Release® (SER) a physical therapeutic process used in CranioSacral Therapy. SER helps to release emotional energy of past traumas which have been retained, suppressed, and isolated within the body. The theory behind SER suggests that the body and mind are intricately connected and that the body can retain memory of emotional traumas, which can manifest as physical symptoms or dysfunctions.
