Cranial Sacral Treatment (CST) is a specialised physiotherapy technique focused on the head, neck, and spine. At Physio Barnsley, we use CST to release physical tension and promote the body’s natural healing. By gently manipulating the cerebrospinal fluid, this non-invasive therapy helps restore balance and reduce pain.

Key Benefits:

1. Non-Invasive and Safe: CST is a low-risk therapy with no need for surgery or medication, making it suitable for a wide range of patients.
2. Pain Relief and Mobility Improvement: CST can help alleviate headaches, migraines, and chronic pain, particularly in patients who have conditions affecting the head, neck, or spine. The treatment works by releasing tension and improving mobility in the affected areas.
3. Reduction of Stress and Anxiety: Many patients report feelings of deep relaxation and calm following CST. This makes it particularly effective for those who experience anxiety or stress-related conditions. By gently manipulating the cranial and spinal regions, CST promotes relaxation and a sense of well-being.
4. Restoration of Balance: CST helps bring balance to the body by enhancing the flow of cerebrospinal fluid around the brain and spine, supporting natural healing.

Conditions Treated by Cranial Sacral Treatment

CST can be beneficial for patients dealing with:
– Headaches and Migraines: CST can reduce tension and improve fluid circulation in the cranial region, offering relief from chronic headaches and migraines.
– Chronic Pain: CST is known to ease pain related to long-standing musculoskeletal issues, including back and neck pain.
– Stress and Anxiety: The gentle touch involved in CST helps promote relaxation, making it suitable for patients suffering from high stress or anxiety.

At Physiotherapy Barnsley, we use CST alongside other treatments like manual therapy** and exercise therapy to provide a holistic approach to rehabilitation. Each treatment plan is personalised to meet the specific needs of our patients, ensuring that CST is used effectively in your recovery process.
