How Can Craniosacral Therapy (CST) Treat Migraines?

If you suffer from migraine headaches you’ve probably tried all the medication there is to relieve them. But even then, most only dampen down the symptoms and make carrying on with everyday life a challenge. For some, the symptoms can last for hours or days and can even run into another bout of suffering.

CST is a gentle treatment that works with your body to heal itself. It’s generally considered that stress is the main contributor in bringing on migraines and because CST is thought to calm down your central and peripheral nervous systems, this may reduce the stress and tension the body is carrying and relieve the symptoms of your migraine.

I recommend a course of six treatments, with the first three being weekly, to allow the client/ practitioner relationship to develop so that real healing can take place. A session usually takes place on a massage table or a chair with the client fully-clothed. After an initial settling stage, I will place my hands gently onto your body, usually starting at the feet, entirely negotiating the contact with you. There’s no crunching or clicking or pummelling, so if those sort of treatments have you feeling anxious then this therapy is for you.

My clients usually leave my treatment room calmer, more relaxed and feeling generally lighter. I notice that the colour has returned to their cheeks and the face looks less tense, making them look younger. There is less tension in their body as a whole and the eyes shine.

For me, I started having CST for a clicking jaw. I couldn’t open my mouth fully without a loud and painful crack! After a few treatments of CST, it completely stopped, and because CST is thought to work with the whole body, I also noticed some other minor ailments cleared up too.
