Unlocking Whole-Body Wellness with CranioSacral Therapy

Your central nervous system is at the heart of everything your body does, influencing how you think, feel, and function. CranioSacral Therapy (CST) offers a gentle, light-touch approach to releasing tensions deep within the body, improving overall health and well-being.

The Central Nervous System: Your Body’s Control Center

Few systems in your body hold more sway over your well-being than the central nervous system. Protected by the craniosacral system—soft tissues and fluid surrounding your brain and spinal cord—this vital network can be affected by the stresses and strains you encounter in daily life.

Over time, your body absorbs these stresses, leading to tension in the tissues. When this tension becomes too great, it can compromise the function of your central nervous system and ripple out to affect nearly every other system in your body.

How CranioSacral Therapy Works

CST uses a light touch—starting with about the weight of a nickel—to evaluate and release strain patterns in your body. Practitioners use gentle techniques to free restrictions within the craniosacral system, allowing the central nervous system to function at its best.

By addressing these hidden restrictions, CST helps your body naturally reduce pain, stress, and dysfunction. It strengthens your resistance to disease, enhances your health, and improves your overall quality of life.

What to Expect During a Session

A CranioSacral Therapy session typically takes place in a quiet, calming environment. You’ll remain fully clothed while lying on a comfortable, padded table.

Here’s what happens during a session:

Gentle Assessment: Your practitioner gently touches various parts of your head and body to monitor the rhythm of the fluid flowing around your central nervous system.
Listening with the Hands: By detecting areas of weak fluid flow or tissue motion, your practitioner traces these patterns to their source.
Delicate Techniques: Using precise, light-touch methods, the practitioner releases restrictions and improves the form and function of your central nervous system.

Sessions are deeply relaxing, often creating sensations of warmth or gentle pulsing in the areas being worked on.

Why Choose CranioSacral Therapy?

CST is not only gentle but versatile, making it effective for all ages—from newborns to elders. Whether you’re seeking relief from chronic pain, managing stress, or simply aiming to enhance your overall well-being, CST offers a safe, non-invasive solution.

The Morning Mindfulness 2

When attempting to change or remove programs or behaviors that no longer serve us (or never did) there is one element that must be attained: awareness; and there are two elements that must be reinforced daily: persistence and consistency. Think about it, some of these programs have been operating within our life since the age of five or seven and are still being played out today. For example, I have a friend that grew up impoverished and food wasn't always available, but when it was, he would eat until he felt sick because the next meal was unforeseeable. This programming continued into his teenage and adult years causing a life-threatening onset of obesity. When the awareness arrived as to why he felt as if he must always overeat and that the circumstance(s) in life that brought about that programming were no longer relevant, he was able to make the proper adjustments to remove that program from their life.

The Journey is the Destination

Ruba and I started a journey roughly four months ago, bringing only what we could fit in our 2017 Civic. Reducing two lives into a Civic isn't the easiest task, but when adventure calls...you answer. What we're doing will be shared in future blogs, but before we go any further, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Nick Nelson and I am a seeker of knowledge. I believe knowledge is what separates or compartmentalizes us within Time. For example, a child is a child and an adult is an adult due to knowledge. The more knowledge one retains, the greater their responsibility in this place. I am one that believes the greatest responsibility is one's self, therefore knowledge of the self is of great importance in this place. As this journey unfolds, so will I.

It can get worse. It can get better.

A good friend of mine reached out to me with the following: "My favorite massage teacher in the whole world used to say, "If it can get worse, it can get better." and I want to hear your story about that." This is where my understanding is at the moment: How we see a situation is based on our judgment of it. And, whether we know it or not, we’re always judging. Consequently, we give a situation a path to a certain outcome based on the energy we give it with our judgment. So, if we see a situation as bad, then we give it permission and momentum to develop in that direction. And if we see a situation as a doorway to better possibilities, then our thoughts direct creative energy to the situation; guiding it to evolve in the direction of our beliefs. Over the last few years a creed developed for me that still stands unchallenged by my experiences. A set of three “rules”. The first two don’t pertain to the topic at hand, but the third is: ...

We're Doing It!

Waking up to a new reality. Waking up in Austin, Texas. It wasn’t an overnight whim nor was it entered into lightly or simply. It took courage, introspection and Soul growth. It took many smaller steps towards an uncertain vision that held the possibility of adventuring into new experiences. Trading fear of the unknown and the comforts of the familiar in exchange for the possibility of finding something new out there and, more importantly, something new within ourselves. I could not have fathomed this odyssey long enough for it to become my reality nor could I have taken the first steps that lead to it without Nick. He holds the space for my outward thoughts and my inward meditations. His stillness calms me and his companionship keeps me brave. He keeps vigil over me that I do not regress into the previous versions of me. It takes new thoughts to shift paradigms. It takes new thoughts to make new choices. Thoughts and choices alone don’t bring about change - taking action brin...

At the Age of 30...

On the beautiful afternoon of August 6, 1988 I,Nicholas Nelson, entered this physical realm of being. After 30 years and a few months of Life experience, I feel as if I finally have the privilege to "talk some shit" or "speak some knowledge" about Life. If I could go back to 18, 21, hell even 24 year old Nick and sit him down to explain how little he knows about Life...what a conversation that would be. He would fight me so hard with his 18,21, or 24 year old knowledge because he is so very sure "he knows". Man, that dude didn't know shit. Have you ever listened to someone speak and you knew damn well they had no clue what they were talking about? That would be 30 year old Nick listening to 18-24 year old Nick talk about his knowledge of Life. Of course he may have a general understanding of Life at those young ages but, the knowledge of the detailed intricacies of Life don't come until later on (hell they are still coming). At the ag...

12 Strands Of DNA - Our Spiritual Heritage

For years science has recognized that we have two active physical strands of DNA. We also have a further ten energetic DNA strands which have been dormant within the Human Being for many centuries. These dormant strands of DNA have been discovered by scientists, who not knowing the function of these strands, have identified them as ‘junk’ DNA. Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a nucleic acid that contains all the genetic instructions used in the development and functioning of all known living things. The main role of DNA is the long-term storage of information. DNA is often compared to a set of blueprints since it contains the instructions needed to construct other components of cells. The DNA segments that carry genetic information are called genes, but other DNA sequences have structural purposes or are involved in regulating the use of genetic information. Our DNA is therefore our personal blueprint and as such holds all our mental, physical, emotional and Spiritual information. The or...

Akashic Records And Physical Healing

Sometimes people ask me whether energy clearing work in the Akashic Records can resolve physical illness and dis-ease. The short answer is "no." Our body is the densest aspect of ourselves. If our body is displaying pain and dis-ease, it's because of something we are doing, or not doing, that is blocking the flow of vital force energy to our physical aspect. But the problem is being created at the physical aspect of our experience. This means that we have to change what we are doing, at the physical level of our experience, in order the resolve the problem. Whether that's changing our posture or sleeping position because we have back pain, or getting out of a toxic relationship, or changing our diet ... we have to do something different. Energy clearing isn't going to change our physicality. Having said that ... the Akashic Records can contribute great understanding as to how we created illness and dis-ease in the first place. I had a client who was...
