2.  Craniosacral Therapy

Nowadays there are many energetic healing methods such as Reiki, Prana Healing, Japanese healing currents etc. And there are many different manual treatment methods, beginning with classical massage and chiropractic up to Rolfing.

In this field between energetic and manual forms of treatment, craniosacral therapy finds its place: it is simultaneously (!) manual therapy, i.e. corrective work on the physical level as well as energetic and emotional balancing and releasing work.

Craniosacral is the name of this body system and the form of therapy that works with it, because between the skull (Latin cranium) and the sacrum (Latin sacrum) there is the cerebrospinal fluid (Liquor). Craniosacral therapy focuses on influencing the rhythmic movements of this fluid, which flows around the human central nervous system. It is therefore "embedded in water".

Craniosacral therapy allows a gentle contact with the cerebral and spinal cord membranes, with the movements of the cerebrospinal fluid and the nervous system. On the other hand, of course, also with the bones, muscles and connective tissue. The craniosacral therapy, as it is mostly practiced today in Germany, goes back to the discoveries of John E. Upledger. Upledger developed craniosacral therapy, which originated in osteopathy, into an independent form of therapy.
