Moving forward from the first manual therapy which was active release. We will be getting into the second type of Top Sugar Land Chiropractors manual therapy today as well. Now what is it? It is craniosacral therapy also put as cranial sacral therapy (CST). If you did not know your central nervous system is your brain and the spinal cord. Which controls your body and if you did not have it well you would not be able to do anything. But the central nervous system is surrounded by fluid and membranes. The membranes that surround the Top Sugar Land Chiropractors central nervous system have tension in them, they stick to structures around them, or have other dysfunction. Did you know that? Because of that it affects the fluid flow. When the membranes and fluids are not gliding and flowing as the should then it can affect the nervous system function. If it does affect your nervous system, then it will start causing symptoms. Symptoms like what you may ask. You will get these symptoms which are headaches, neck pain and back pain as well. This therapy is a type of body work that helps relieve compression in the bones of the head, sacrum and the spinal column. This therapy is noninvasive I know it sounds like it is. But it just uses gentle pressure on the head, neck and back to relieve the Top Sugar Land Chiropractors stress and pain that is being caused due to the compression you are receiving. It can help manipulate bones in the skull, spine and pelvis. Also, it can help normalize the flow of cerebrospinal fluid in the nervous system. You may ask what does it do when it improves theses specific things. You see it removes blockages that are in the normal flow, and this is why it helps enhances the body to heal as it should. Many chiropractors are able to perform this therapy but as I said in the last blog not all provide the service, but if you are interested then ask about this specific type of manual therapy. If they do provide it, then that is a plus for them and if you are interested but still feel unsure about it because you do not know how it is done. Then you can look up some videos because I am sure it is somewhere on YouTube but if it is not the Top Sugar Land Chiropractors office you found that provides this service ask if they do consultations. This will help you ask all the questions you want to know about cranial sacral therapy, and you will learn more since the chiropractor is there to tell you and show you how it is done. It does depend what you are wanting to use cranial sacral therapy to treat because it can vary on different people and condition. But usually, you benefit from cranial sacral therapy in between 3 to 10 sessions, but that is why whatever healthcare provider you choose it there to help you determine what is right.
