Cranio-Sacral treatment is a gentle and hands-on method of evaluating the body; it is practised by chiropractors Coventry at the Central Chiropractic Clinic. The Cranio-Sacral system is found in the core of the nervous system- it is comprised of the membranes and cerebro-spinal fluid that surround, nourish and protect the spine.
The Cranio-Sacral system has a faint pulse that can be felt throughout the body and chiropractors Coventry can monitor this pulse in certain points of the body to determine the exact point of an obstruction or some stress; something that is preventing the body from functioning as normal.
When this area has been discovered, the chiropractor can help the soft tissue to heal itself and help the body correct itself. Cranio-Sacral treatment can be combined with other therapies to help the body further.
Treatment
In a Cranio-Sacral treatment session the client remain clothed and lies on the examination table. The chiropractor will then use very light forces to manipulate certain areas. Slowly moving the limbs allows the tissues to unwind themselves. Key evaluation areas include the ankles, head, neck and lower back.
Cranio-Sacral treatment can be used to treat, among others:
- Headaches and migraines
- IBS and digestive problems
- Depression
- Back pain
- Problems and injuries with the brain, spinal cord and nervous system
- M.S. and M.E.
