FIBROMYALGIA
In Missoula, Montana
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:
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.
