Guest guest Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 No, , that does not sound at all like Cranial Sacral Therapy. In cranial sacral, unlike massage, they barely touch you. In fact, it doesn't feel as if they are doing anything, for the most part. There is almost no pressure involved. I tried it once and was not impressed, so I haven't gone back. Just to be safe, I had asked my surgeon if it was okay before I did it and I told the CS therapist about Chiari beforehand. However, there was so little touching involved, I wasn't at all concerned about any harm having been done. What you experienced just doesn't sound like the same thing.

Guest guest Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 , hello, I have been going to a cranial sacral physical therapist and she sounds a little bit like what kelly was describing in her visit. She would not only sit and feel the csf flow in my body which most cranial sacral therapists do but she would also do different gentle physical therapy on me. She used the cranial sacral techniques to feel my head to be able to tell where the blockages are in my body. She is able to tell me that I am blocked in the back of my head just like the MRI CINE shows me. But anyway, she does do a lot of techniques with my ears. What she is doing is trying to release blockages that have been built up in my head. I had noticed that I got a slight headache about a day after her therapy and I was wondering about if it was associated with her. She told me that it is possible to get a headache after the therapy, she said the reason you would get one is because the therapy is helping to open up areas and it is releasing bad substance from your body which can give you a temporary headache while it is clearing this up. It makes sense to me how she describes it. If this is the case with you then I think you need to think about how bad the headaches are that you get after her therapy and do they clear up and do you think you feel any better over time. What she is hoping on doing with me is opening up blocked areas in my head in the hopes to give me a little more room. Since I had a few head traumas throughout my life, maybe it's possible. It's hard for me to tell how much it's working but my hands were feeling a lot colder in the past but it's hard to tell if it's because of this therapy or not. So anyway I think your therapy is more like what she does. She is feeling where you are blocked and trying to gently work on these areas. good luck erica ________________________________ To: " " < > Sent: Friday, July 10, 2009 5:01:39 PM Subject: Re:(no subject) No, , that does not sound at all like Cranial Sacral Therapy.
