CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle, hands-on therapy that may help relieve symptoms associated with fibromyalgia, a chronic condition characterized by widespread pain, fatigue, and other issues. 

Ways That CranioSacral Therapy Can Help With Fibromyalgia:

1. Addressing the Craniosacral System:

• Normalizing Cerebrospinal Fluid Flow: CST focuses on the CranioSacral system, which includes the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid surrounding the brain and spinal cord. Restrictions in this system can contribute to pain and dysfunction.

• Releasing Restrictions: Through gentle touch, CST practitioners release restrictions in the Craniosacral System, normalizing the flow of cerebrospinal fluid.

• Improving Nervous System Function: By addressing the CranioSacral System, CST helps improve the functioning of the central nervous system, which plays a crucial role in pain processing. 
  
  

2. Pain Reduction and Symptom Management:

• Reducing Pain and Fatigue: CST helps reduce pain intensity and fatigue levels in individuals with fibromyalgia.

• Improving Sleep and Mood: CST also contributes to better sleep quality and improved mood, reducing anxiety and depression associated with fibromyalgia.

• Enhancing Body's Self-Healing Abilities: CST works by stimulating the body's natural healing capabilities, promoting overall well-being. 
  
  

3. Impact on Fibromyalgia Symptoms:

• Widespread Musculoskeletal Pain: CST's focus on releasing restrictions in the Craniosacral System helps to alleviate the widespread musculoskeletal pain experienced in fibromyalgia.

• Fatigue and Sleep Issues: By improving nervous system function and promoting relaxation, CST helps manage fatigue and sleep problems common in fibromyalgia.

• Mood and Anxiety: CST's gentle approach and potential to reduce pain also contributes to improved mood and reduced anxiety levels in individuals with fibromyalgia.
