What Is Craniosacral Therapy?
Craniosacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle, hands-on technique that focuses on releasing tension in the craniosacral system—the membranes and fluid surrounding the brain and spinal cord. This therapy helps to balance the nervous system, relieve pain, and support the body’s natural healing processes.
At Nelson Healing Center, Antonia Nelson uses CST to address a wide range of physical and emotional conditions, including headaches, chronic pain, stress-related disorders, and trauma recovery.

Benefits of Craniosacral Therapy:
• Reduces stress and promotes relaxation
