Update -Fall Meeting, October, 2007

INTRODUCTION TO UPLEDGER INSTITUTE'S

CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY

              Particiapants learned the The Upledger Institute's Therapy I (CST) workshop studied by more than 50,000

              healthcare practitioners worldwide. workshop included a mix of lecture, demonstration and hands-on practice

             designed to teach you the benefits of CST along with some basic techniques you can use in practice and for your own health.

              CranioSacral Therapy is a gentle, hands-on method of evaluating and enhancing the function of the craniosacral

              system -- the physiological body system comprised  of the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surrond and protect

              the brain and spinal cord. 

              In this 2 day workshop participants studied the craniosacral system and its relationship to illness, pain

             and dysfunction; refine your light touch palpation skills; palpate "listening stations" where the craniosacral  motion can be

             evaluated; and explore hands-on techniques, including the Dural Tube Rock/Glide,V-Spread, and Still Point Induction.
