Equine Craniosacral Therapy (EQCST)

Equine Craniosacral therapy (EQCST)

Is a complimentary and alternative health care that focuses on disorders of the musculoskeletal system, the nervous system, the deep fluid body, and the effect of these disorders on general health. Craniosacral care addresses the bones in the skull, the soft tissue in the skull, and their relationships with the sacrum through the dura of the spine. Biodynamic craniosacral goes deeper, following rhythms deep within the system that nourishes the nervous system, the fascia systems, and that connects our body originating from early embryological stages. A therapeutic procedure performed by a therapist uses a sustained contact in a precise way to release compressions where the plates in the skull join, and to release tightness in the soft tissue that surrounds these plates to restore the fluidity that feeds the nervous system.
