CranioSacral Therapy in New Castle & Pittsburgh, PA

Gentle, Restorative Healing for Body and Mind

CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle, hands-on approach that helps release tension deep within the body, supporting your nervous system and restoring natural balance. This subtle yet powerful therapy encourages the body’s innate healing processes - helping relieve pain, reduce stress, and improve overall well-being.

 

At Touch of Nature Healing, CranioSacral Therapy is one of the many modalities Briana integrates into her healing sessions. Each session is intuitively guided and may include CST, Reiki, Myofascial Release, and other therapeutic techniques to meet your body’s unique needs.

What is CranioSacral Therapy?

CranioSacral Therapy focuses on the craniosacral system—the membranes and fluid surrounding your brain and spinal cord. With a light touch, the practitioner gently releases restrictions and encourages natural movement within this system, which can improve how your central nervous system functions.

Because the nervous system influences every other system in the body, CST can help relieve physical discomfort, emotional tension, and energetic imbalance. Clients often describe it as deeply relaxing, grounding, and restorative.

How CranioSacral Therapy Can Help

CranioSacral Therapy may support those experiencing: 

  • Chronic pain or tension

  • Headaches and migraines

  • TMJ (jaw tension and dysfunction)

  • Concussion recovery and head injuries

  • Stress and nervous system dysregulation

  • Emotional trauma or overwhelm

  • Post-surgical recovery

  • Sleep issues and fatigue

  • Neck, back, or joint discomfort

CST is suitable for all ages and complements both traditional and holistic approaches to health and wellness.

Pediatric CranioSacral Therapy

CranioSacral Therapy is also deeply supportive for infants and children. Gentle, noninvasive, and soothing, it can help with challenges related to birth trauma, feeding or sleep difficulties, sensory issues, and more.

What to Expect During a Healing Session

Each session at Touch of Nature Healing is unique, blending different modalities based on what your body most needs that day. During the CranioSacral Therapy portion, you’ll remain fully clothed and lie comfortably on a massage table. Using gentle touch, Briana listens to the subtle rhythms of your body and encourages release where there’s restriction or imbalance.

Many clients experience warmth, tingling, or a wave of deep relaxation. Some drift into a meditative state, while others feel an emotional or energetic shift afterward. Your experience will be unique to you - and always guided by your body’s wisdom through the hands of our skilled practitioners.

CranioSacral Therapy is offered as part of our integrated healing sessions in New Castle and Pittsburgh, PA, serving clients throughout the Shenango Valley, Beaver Valley, and surrounding areas.
