Craniosacral Fascial Therapy (CFT)
“The Brain has to breathe; The Fascia has to be Free”
Craniosacral Therapy (CST) was one of the great scientific discoveries of the twentieth century. Dr. William Sutherland found that the brain, and spinal cord have a slight gentle motion which has a profound effect on how the central nervous system works.
Craniosacral Fascial Therapy (CFT) adds the critical aspects of fascia, and dental issues to his work. The fascia is a full body connective tissue web that can apply tremendous pressure to the nerves, muscles, organs, and bones.
The power of CFT revolves around the integration of hands-on procedures that facilitate healing without drugs, vitamins, supplements, technology, or surgery. A freely moving brain, and unrestricted fascia are a must for all newborns, children, and adults.
The Baby Brain Score (BBS)
In 2006, Dr. Barry Gillespie created the Baby Brain Score (BBS). This hands on screening tool quickly assesses brain function in the first few minutes of life.
A compromised score alerts birth professionals to the need for immediate CFT. We believe that the effects of fetal, and birth traumas can be mitigated at the beginning of life to create optimal brain function, prevent many diseases, and avert a lifetime of suffering.
What a great gift for a human being!
Even though CFT can be beneficial at any age, our primary goal is for prevention with the use of the BBS, and CFT for every newborn worldwide.
