Guest guest Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 , I was doing CST because of my pain and neuro symptoms from my TC after my initial untethering (I was retethered), and trying to get relief and put off a second untethering surgery. Are you familiar with CST and what it can do? CST focuses on the cranial bones and sutures and the flow of CSF. The Upledger Institute is the best known CST training/organization for CST http://upledger.com/content.asp?id=26 I would say that if the problem is not originating from the CNS, then CST probably wouldn't help treat it. I know some people swear by CST, but I don't really know. I did it, and for a while. I don't think it really did anything - didn't hurt anything, but didn't help anything either.
