Craniosacral Therapy in Lehi, Utah
We help people suffering from chronic pain and stress get relief and improved overall health without having to rely on invasive treatments or medications by offering Craniosacral Therapy (CST).
Allow Your Body to Self Correct
Craniosacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle, non-invasive bodywork technique that focuses on the bones of the head, spinal column, and sacrum. This therapy aims to improve the flow of cerebrospinal fluid, release tension in the tissues surrounding the central nervous system, and promote overall health and relaxation.
During a CST session, you remain fully clothed while lying on a comfortable treatment table. Our skilled practitioner uses a light touch (about the weight of a nickel) to detect imbalances and restrictions in your craniosacral system. By gently manipulating the bones and soft tissues, we help release tension and allow your body to self-correct.
CST can be beneficial for a wide range of conditions, including:
- Migraines and headaches
- Chronic neck and back pain
- Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders
- Stress and anxiety
- Traumatic brain injuries and concussions
Enhanced Well-being
Many clients report feeling deeply relaxed during and after sessions, experiencing a sense of warmth and gentle pulsing in the treated areas. Regular CST sessions may lead to reduced pain, decreased stress levels, improved cognitive function, and enhanced overall well-being.
- Are you tired of relying on pain medications that only mask your symptoms?

FAQs
What is a Craniosacral Therapy session like and do I remove my clothing?
During a craniosacral therapy session, you’ll lie fully clothed on a treatment table. The practitioner will use light touch on various parts of your body, including the head, spine, and sacrum, to detect and release imbalances or restrictions in the craniosacral system. Many people find the experience deeply relaxing and may even fall asleep during the session.
How does Craniosacral Therapy work?
CST works by detecting and addressing disruptions in the craniosacral rhythm, which is the subtle pulsing of cerebrospinal fluid in the craniosacral system. The practitioner uses extremely light touch (no more than 5 grams of pressure) to feel this rhythm and gently manipulate the skull, spine, and sacrum to improve fluid circulation. This can help nourish the central nervous system, balance its structures, and promote optimal functioning.
Is Craniosacral Therapy safe for everyone?
While CST is generally safe, it’s best to consult your physician before scheduling a session if you have experienced any of the following:
- Cerebral edema
- Recent concussion
- Blood clots
- Aneurysm
- Traumatic brain injury
- Chiari malformation Additionally, special considerations may be needed for children under 9 years old.
How long does a session last?
A typical CST session lasts about 60 minutes, but this may vary depending on individual needs and preferences.
How many sessions will I need?
The number of sessions required varies for each individual. Some people experience significant relief after just one session, while others may benefit from regular treatments. Your practitioner can discuss a recommended treatment plan based on your specific needs and goals.
Are there any side effects?
Most people find CST to be relaxing and painless. However, some individuals may experience mild discomfort or fatigue following a session as the body adjusts. These effects are typically short-lived and often followed by improved well-being.
Can CST be combined with other treatments?
Yes, CST can often complement other forms of medical treatment or alternative therapies. Always inform your practitioner about any other treatments you’re receiving to ensure the best possible care.
