The Craniosacral Connection: Overview of Craniosacral Therapy
Learn practical craniosacral therapy concepts and techniques in one day! This is an opportunity to sample the Upledger CranioSacral Therapy course studied by more than 85,000 healthcare practitioners worldwide. The 8-hour program is a mix of lecture, demonstration and hands-on practice designed to teach you the benefits of CST along with some basic techniques you can use in practice and for your own health. The Craniosacral Connection is a slightly expanded version of The Upledger Intitute’s Overview of Craniosacral Therapy class.
In this seminar, you will develop and/or refine your light-touch palpation skills by learning how to palpate and evaluate the craniosacral rhythm, a subtle physiological movement affecting the entire body. You will also learn how to locate subtle restrictions in the connective tissue system and correct those restrictions using gentle myofascial techniques.
