Are the benefits of Craniosacral Therapy worth considering?
Cricut Craniosacral Therapy (CSET) is an alternative health method that focuses on the relationship between our body's natural healing power, specifically "Craniosacral" or "Cranial" energy, and the health of our bodies. Craniosacral Therapy promotes overall health and helps alleviate various symptoms that are related to illnesses. Craniosacral Therapy has been proven to be effective in treating a wide variety of ailments and conditions. Some of the ailments that can be treated through this method include migraine headaches, headaches, chronic pain joint and muscle pain, migraines, sinus headaches, earaches, sinus issues, dental pain and back pain, sinus congestion headaches, nasal congestion and headaches and various other health issues. There are many ways to administer Craniosacral therapy. We will provide the options below.
Craniosacral Therapy works on the assumption that all illnesses and disease result from a breakdown in the communication between the brain and the spinal cord/cranial motor system. The nervous system is responsible for every function of the body, including respiration, circulation and temperature control. The nervous system is responsible for our immune system and brain functions, posture, and involuntary movements, such as breathing. The purpose of cranial therapy is to treat patients suffering from health related issues by using gentle pressure on the feet, hands and face of the patient. This gentle "physiotherapist" technique provides an non-invasive, non-surgical treatment method for patients that allows them to be pain-free while addressing the root causes of their illness.
Craniosacral Therapy works on the theory that the brain releases chemicals called "GABA". These chemicals released in the presence of sound or light waves, trigger brain cells to start firing at a normal rate. Patients who undergo treatment for cranial disorders are not found to have an abnormal firing. The normal firing rate of neurons is normal. This is the "cure" to the "Cranial defect". The treatment is non-invasive and does not require surgery. Patients can recover quickly from their condition.
Patients that do not respond to other forms of craniosacral therapy may suffer from some side effects, and the severity of these symptoms will differ. Patients should be able to report any symptoms they encounter to their Chiropractor or Physiotherapist. These symptoms could include, but are not limited to, nausea dizziness, head pressure or tingling in arms or legs, difficulty breathing, insomnia, and/or feelings of disconnection and a lack of understanding the environment. These symptoms should be reported to a reputable Chiropractor or Physiotherapist as quickly as is possible.
Patients may feel a lack of sensations during manipulations of the cranial function for a variety of reasons. One of these reasons is due to the fact that the brainstem is located so far away from the skull that there is no nerve connection to it. Another reason why patients have a sensation after cranial function treatments is that contact with sound or light can cause the brain stem fire at a frequency higher than the normal range. Other reasons include sensory dysfunction, lack of coordination, and a neurological abnormality. It is important for patients to consult with a Physiotherapist or Chiropractor prior to beginning any form of craniosacral therapy.
There is no one method that is more effective than another for treating injured or disabled patients. This is the reason why there is a lot of debate about craniosacral therapy. Some people may have experienced significant improvement following treatments that are not the ones that were provided by a Chiropractor or Physiotherapist. There are a variety of methods that might not be suitable for every patient. Your physician or chiropractor can help you determine the best treatment for your situation.
Patients may experience some improvement in mobility or a reduction in pain following a craniosacral treatment session. However, these improvements might not be enough to completely eliminate the possible negative effects that a loss of sensations can have. Patients who have experienced nerve damage or those who have an injury to their nerves should definitely avoid cranial function manipulations. A Chiropractor or Physiotherapist should be sought out in case there is doubt about the merit of the methods being employed.
The benefits of craniosacral therapy can be beneficial to those suffering from neuromuscular conditions like Multiple Sclerosis. However, it is also believed to be beneficial to people who suffer from spasticity in their cervical discs. Spasticity refers to a condition that causes muscles to not be able to move correctly which results in shortened muscles that are referred to as spasticity. This condition can make movement difficult or impossible. Chiropractic and physiotherapists can help promote healthy movements as well as strength and overall wellness of the nervous systems.
