system and reduce inflammation in the membranous tissues
that surround the spinal cord and the brain. With CST, we
invite the body to find its own inner balance or state of ho-
meostasis (the body regulates its internal environment and
maintains a stable, constant condition).

CranioSacral Therapy
may lessen the symptoms of autism, hyperactivity, sensory in-
tegration dysfunction, sleeplessness, ADD, ADHD, birthing
traumas and other medical conditions or concerns.
Parents have observed and noted significant changes in
their children’s behavior after they have received CranioSacral
Therapy. A reduction of autistic symptoms is often reported,
including a sense of calmness within the child. Additionally,
children appear to be more relaxed and less sensitive to their
external environments and other stimuli. They have shown
decreased reactivity to situations that may have previously
caused emotional upset or tantrums. Individuals appear to be
more at peace and, at times, more focused. Eye contact has
been reestablished after a CST session, when it was absent
prior to the session. Doctors and Naturopaths have documen-
tation showing that children undergoing a detoxification pro-
gram have responded extremely well to the addition of Cran-
ioSacral Therapy, which assists in the elimination of toxins.

CST, in combination with other medical and holistic ther-
apies, can help individuals diagnosed with Autism and related
disorders to achieve a more balanced and comfortable state
of being.
