Method

The Craniosacrale therapy is an individual treatment, which is accomplished in one to one treatment. The starting position is usually the supine position, but depending on the patient group, other positions can also be chosen. First the therapist palpates/palpates the rhythm and pulsation of the liquor and the skull plates.

This enables him to draw conclusions about possible blockages in the organism. Through certain techniques, the therapist can respond to the palpated blockages and stimulate the organism to heal itself, energy blockages can be released and the energy flow can be brought back into balance. The influence on the liquor and the blockades is done by fine touches or light impulses through the hands of the therapist, which can be applied to different parts of the body. A verbal accompaniment of the therapy also belongs to the craniosacral treatment, however, during the session there are often long phases of rest and silence, which give the patient the possibility for concentration and relaxation.

Craniosacral Session

In a Craniosacralen treatment the therapist deals with the patient individually. It is important that the patient is in a comfortable starting position in which he can relax and is not influenced in his concentration by an unpleasant positioning. The therapist feels the patient’s cerebrospinal fluid flow through gentle touches and removes any blockages.

In the course of the session, the therapist is guided by his perception and tries to harmonize the patient’s cerebrospinal fluid flow in a targeted manner and to release blockages. If necessary, the therapy can be supplemented by a conversation. However, it is often very quiet, so that the patient can deal with himself.

This can be particularly important in the case of a psychological/vegetative impairment.The therapy can last up to one hour, but for children and infants it is often much shorter. How often a craniosacral therapy is repeated and at what intervals depends on the individual position of the patient. Longer intervals between sessions can be left (4-6 weeks), but under certain circumstances the therapy interval can be shortened significantly.

If necessary, the therapist can teach the patient a self-exercise program after the actual therapy, which can help him or her to achieve independent relief of symptoms. In the craniosacral therapy a high value lies on self-perception and self-responsibility – the self-healing processes should be activated.
