Craniosacral Therapy in Westchester County, New York
"Unlock your body's natural healing potential with Craniosacral Therapy."
- Dr. Michelle Adams
What is Craniosacral Therapy?
Craniosacral Therapy is a subtle, hands-on treatment that focuses on the craniosacral system - the membranes and fluid surrounding the brain and spinal cord. This gentle approach uses light touch to release restrictions in the craniosacral system, promoting balance and optimal functioning throughout the body. At Quantum Healing and Wellness, we integrate CST into our holistic approach to wellness, addressing both physical and emotional aspects of health.

Who it's for

- Chronic pain conditions

How It Works
During a Craniosacral Therapy session at Quantum Healing and Wellness, you'll lie fully clothed on a comfortable treatment table. Our skilled therapist will use gentle touch - typically no more than the weight of a nickel - to assess the craniosacral rhythm and identify areas of restriction or tension.
By applying subtle pressure to specific points on the skull, spine, and pelvis, the therapist works to release these restrictions, allowing the cerebrospinal fluid to flow more freely. This process can help realign the bones and tissues, reduce pain, and promote overall healing.
Many patients report feeling deeply relaxed during and after the treatment. Some experience a sense of warmth, tingling, or gentle pulsing as the body responds to the therapy.
Pain Points Addressed
Craniosacral Therapy can be effective in addressing various pain-related issues, including:
- Chronic back and neck pain

- Sports injuries and repetitive strain injuries
Safety and Efficacy
Craniosacral Therapy is known for its gentle, non-invasive nature, making it a safe option for most individuals. While more research is needed, many patients report significant improvements in pain levels and overall well-being after CST treatments.
A study published in the Journal of Pain Research in 2016 found that Craniosacral Therapy was effective in reducing pain intensity and improving physical functioning in patients with chronic neck pain (Haller et al., 2016).
