CranioSacral Therapy (CS) is a gentle evidence-based, hands-on technique used to release fascial tension and influence the body's connective tissue network. Restrictions and compensations can be released, enabling the nervous system to settle and shift in the direction of rest and repair. Since the 1970's Dr. John Upledger explored and developed the techniques used today. As an ongoing, research-based form of manual therapy, CranioSacral Therapy continues to offer an effective avenue for healing, rebalancing and relief for a range of conditions. [upledger.com] Therapeutic Touch (TT) is an evidence-based, non-invasive treatment available for both mainstream and complementary care. TT can help people to reduce feelings of stress and studies show that people often experience reductions in pain and anxiety, and enjoy improved sleep. TT was developed in 1972 by Professor Delores Krieger and Dora Kunz. During a TT session, the client may be seated or lying down on their back fully clothed. TT may include a gentle placing of hands on the body as well as working with the person's energetic field to assist the body to rebalance and bring about a greater sense of harmony and order within the system.
