What is Craniosacral Therapy

A gentle facilitation. Craniosacral therapy is a hands-on approach that involves "listening with the fingers" to the body's subtle rhythms and any patterns of inertia and congestion. The emphasis of treatment is to encourage and enhance the body's own self-healing and self-regulating capabilities, even in the most acute resistances and pathologies. The work is very gentle and non-invasive. Subtle suggestions are introduced through the practitioner's hands to help restore balance in areas that have been affected by inertia. With this skilful touch the practitioner can assist the body to resolve patterns of disorder, thereby encouraging a revitalisation of tissues.

A holistic approach

Craniosacral therapy takes a whole-person approach to healing. The inter-connections of mind, body and spirit are acknowledged, as well as how the body reflects experiences and retains the memory of trauma. It is an effective form of treatment for a wide range of illnesses, helping to create the optimal conditions for health, encouraging vitality and facilitating a sense of well-being. Craniosacral therapy is suitable for people of all ages, including babies, children and the elderly, and can be effective in acute or chronic cases

Craniosacral osteopathy in cosmetology

We should pay special attention to craniosacral osteopathy in cosmetology. The osteopathic techniques are successfully used in cosmetology. A facelift done with osteopathic techniques can improve the visible signs of aging of the face. Most people looking for a facelift have wrinkles and sagging skin in their face and neck. Osteopathic approaches in face lifting have involved lifting the underlying muscle and fat pads of the face instead of just skin.

A forehead lift done with osteopathic techniques can improve the visible signs of aging of the forehead. Most people interested in a forehead lift have drooping brows, horizontal lines and sagging skin on their forehead. Forehead lifts involve the muscles and tissues that cause drooping and wrinkling being removed or altered to create a smooth forehead, raise the eyebrows and minimize frown lines.

The using of osteopathic techniques in cosmetology ensures manual lymphatic drainage and face relaxation which improve microcirculation in skin and toxins removal. The results after osteopathic treatment are more long-lasting then after injections because osteopath understands what causes wrinkles and treat it.
