Cranial Osteopathy
Cranial Osteopathy is a gentle form of osteopathy that encourages the bones in the skull and pelvis to re-align into a healthy pattern. Cranial/Cranial-Sacral Osteopathy also encourages the Cerebral-Spinal fluid that nourishes & protects the brain and spinal cord (central nervous system) to flow freely so that the body can heal. The cerebrospinal fluid not only acts as protection for the brain and spinal cord, but it also supply's nutrients and drains away waste products. The efficiency of this process relies on the steady pump and compression action from the fluid. If this flow is inhibited in one part of the skull it will most likely be reflected further down the spinal column (or vice versa) as pain or discomfort.
