Guest guest Posted April 4, 2005 Report Share Posted April 4, 2005 Talk about never having to take a pill again! or, something like that. If Anyone beleves in Alternative medicine they should do some reaseach on CranioSacral. I have made a group about this and there are sevral other CS groups on . If anyone wants to learn more please email me. here is just a quick discription of my group: For about seven months now I have had CranioSacral therapy that has helped me with my balance, hearing and speech. This form of alternative medicine was founded about 40 years ago by E. Upledger, an osteopathic physician who did his clinical research and was professor of biomechanics at Michigan State University from 1975- 1983. Some of the medical problems that have been effectively treated by craniosacral therapy include: central nervous system disorders,motor coordination, chronic fatigue, depression, ADHD, Autism, migrane, back and neck pain, and other learning and physical disabilities. I hope you take this opportunity to learn more about CranioSacral. The Upledger Institute is a well-known and well respected institution in the medical community. I hope you will read about it and consider it's methods as an alternative sometimes to traditional medicine. Please let me know if you have any questions about my experience. Thank you for reading this and I hope it can help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 4, 2005 Report Share Posted April 4, 2005 Hi I am new to CranioSacral. We have only been doing it since Nov. with pretty good results. Speech a little clearer and clamer each time it is done. reddragon8804 <reddragon8804@...> wrote: Talk about never having to take a pill again! or, something like that.

Guest guest Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 I took my son as a small child at age 6 for cranial sacral once a week for a year or two and it got rid of his constant headache after a year or more of treatment. The headache went away for years then came back during puberty and resolved the second time through chelation. Cranial sacral is a very mainstream treatment and many chiropractors do it. My son was a forceps delivery and he had a lot of head trauma from his forceps birth. Cranial sacral helped with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 The more frequent at the beginning the better. The idea is that the body is " holding " injury and restrictions in the flow of CSF as a memory. The more work done all in a short period of time, the less likely the body will revert to " old habits " . The great thing about CST is that once it's done it's done. A tune-up every six-twelve months is all you need. Make sure your practitioner _specializes_ in CST, full-time, and mostly with children. If they are certified (CST) or diplomates (CST-D) under the Upledger system (http://www.iahp.com/pages/search/index.php), you will have a lot more luck than with some random massage or physiotherapist who took one class. And if you want to know if it's helping your child, have a few sessions yourself to understand how it completely changes your body. >my son went for his first craniosacral appt. friday, the therapist >recommended 2-3 times a week? does that sound right? does anyone go >that often? and for how long do they need to go that often? he >seemed to like it, but i didnt see anything worth $60 per session 3 >times a week. any advise or stories of how it help or didnt help >would be greatly appreciated. > >thanks, sharon > > > -- Ralph Nader on the need for moral courage: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 I think doing a few sessions on yourself is an excellent rec. I still wish I had taken the time and money to do this... and then I would have had a point of reference for what it was doing for my son. I have since used myself as the " control " for many other types of testing/supplements. I think it's a good idea, in general... and then you understand what your child is experiencing too (on some level).
