CranioSacral Therapy: Its Role in Autism Recovery & Childhood Development
As a result of the ever-growing number of children being diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorders, we are increasingly faced with providing care to children with these complex disorders. Craniosacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle, hands-on method that enhances the functioning of the physiological body system and is used to bolster resistance to a wide range of medical problems associated with autism. We will examine childhood development and the role of CST in the recovery of autism.

Craniosacral Therapy (CST): Understanding its Effect on Brain & Body Function
CST, a gentle manual therapy, stretches and mobilizes tight soft tissues. Autism spectrum issues of both gut and brain inflammation may be one cause of these tissue restrictions and abnormal force and tension.

Behavioral challenges can be associated with specific strains on brain or body areas. History, technique overview, and several case studies will be presented.
