and the meninges, as well as deeper structures, including the cortical lobes of the brain and even deeper subcortical tissues such as the thalamus, the pituitary gland, and the limbic system.


Improvements in Walking, Mental Clarity, Speech, Swallowing, Tremors and Much More


Cranial therapy can augment the health of


our nervous system, which is a core component of all neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and Multiple Sclerosis. With these diseases there is a degeneration or breakdown of the nervous system in a part of the body or systemically. Cranial therapy can be an important component of a treatment program. Practitioners practicing cranial therapy on an individual with a neurodegenerative disorder can improve the health of the nervous system, which can lead to improvements in walking, mental clarity, speech, swallowing, tremors, and much more.


Alignment, Fatigue and Chronic Pain


People who suffer from neurodegenerative disorders generally have breakdowns in other systems as well, such as the circulatory system and the immune system. Often, there is bio- mechanical dysfunction, which means that the sacrum, pelvis, and spine are out of alignment. When the spine is out of alignment, this can contribute to problems with walking as well as fatigue syndromes and chronic pain. Using Inte- grative Manual Therapy to target other systems of the body can improve walking and reduce other symptoms as well as improve overall health.
