Cranio-Sacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle way of working with the body using light touch. It works with the whole person and changes may occur in body, mind and spirit during and after sessions. It is suitable for acute physical problems like headaches or bad backs, or long-standing problems both physical and emotional. People also come for ongoing support in their busy lives and for help to meet life’s challenges.

Because it is so gentle and non-invasive, cranio-sacral therapy is suitable for everyone from the young to the elderly. Letting go of tension held in the body enables it to settle into calmness.

Cranio-Sacral Therapy is, in essence, very similar to Cranial Osteopathy, with the main difference being that the therapist is not a Registered Osteopath. It still requires a considerable commitment of time and effort to become a qualified CST practitioner, and it is in no way a second-string alternative. As the availability of our Cranial Osteopathy sessions is limited, we are lucky to have this excellent option on offer.

Specialist Cranio-Sacral Therapy at Wadebridge Osteopaths is delivered by Jo Bhatti., currently for ages 3+ to adult.

Treatments for younger children are offered by our Cranial Osteopath, Elaine.

Grace Retallick also works with CST, but can currently only offer appointments to clients who have seen her before.
