“One of the things I like best about the Cranial-Sacral class was the fact that we got to do a lot of hands-on work…It really gave us a good sense of how different everybody is and how the techniques will work well with just about anybody. I love John’s teaching style – it’s very easy to learn.” – David
CST1 – What is Cranial-Sacral Therapy?
Introduction and Essential Tools
This class shows you how Cranial-Sacral Therapy (CST) works. CST is a gentle therapeutic technique that can be used successfully on a wide variety of clients, including many who would ordinarily be contraindicated for massage.
With CST, you release restrictions in the bones and fascial tissue in the cranium and along the spine, as well as other parts of the body, to allow a free flow of cerebrospinal fluid. This encourages healthier function in the central nervous system (CNS) and throughout the entire body. As you may know, the CNS is like Mom – when the CNS is happy, everything is happy!
In this course, you’ll understand the anatomy and physiology of the Cranial-Sacral system and how CST helps it to function optimally. You’ll learn how CST originated and how it’s different from other modalities, when therapists use CST in their practice, what conditions respond well to CST techniques, and what conditions would be contraindicated.
You’ll find that you can use CST in different ways to help your clients. You can combine your good bodywork techniques with CST, or you can do a complete CST session. As you use CST with your clients, you notice that they leave feeling like they received much more than a good massage. And you also notice that it’s a lot easier on your body.
In the live class, you learn and practice some of the essential tools of Cranial-Sacral Therapy. It’s highly beneficial to take this CST1 class together with CST2 (Advanced Tools) and CST3 (Complete Protocol).
