Cranio-sacral osteopathy was developed by Dr. William Garner Sutherland as part of osteopathy in the 1930s and 1940s. He examined the human skull according to its predisposition to movement and developed a concept that makes the rhythmic flow of cerebrospinal fluid palpable. This rhythm is transmitted to the individual bones and their connections from the skull (cranium) to the spine to the sacrum (sacrum).<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

All these structures have close connections to the nervous system (cranial and spinal nerves), to the hormonal system (pituitary gland and hypothalamus), to the muscular, vascular and organ systems.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

The cranio-sacral rhythm<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Diagnosis and therapy in cranio-sacral osteopathy are largely based on the cranio-sacral rhythm.<\/span><\/p>\n

This rhythm, like heartbeat and breath, is an independent body rhythm with a frequency of about 7-14 cycles per minute. It is presumably caused by the swelling and swelling movement of the cerebrospinal fluid.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Through targeted palpation (palpation), the osteopath can perceive the cranio-sacral movements on the skull and the rest of the body and thus localize restrictions on the system’s ability to move. For treatment, with very gentle, but specific techniques, the free flow in the restricted structures is restored.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Cranio-sacral therapy often has a positive influence on diseases and symptoms of the central nervous system<\/strong>. Cranio-sacral therapy causes a general strengthening of vital functions and a balance in states of tension.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=”middle”][vc_column css_animation=”fadeInUp” width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”2\/3″]
