WHO CAN BENEFIT FROM CST?

Used alone or with traditional healthcare it has proven clinically effective on facilitating the body's ability to heal its self. Craniosacral Therapy often produces extraordinary results. CST helps normalize the environment of the craniosacral system, a core physiological body system only recently scientifically defined. The craniosacral system extends from the skull, face, mouth down to the sacrum and coccyx. It consists of a compartment formed by the dura mater membrane, the cerebrospinal fluid contained within, the systems that regulate the fluid flow, the bones that attach the membranes and the joints and sutures that interconnect these bones. A practitioner evaluates the system by testing for ease of motion and the rhythm of the cerebrospinal fluid pulsing within the membranes. Specific techniques are then used to release restrictions in sutures, fascia, membranes and any other tissues that may influence the craniosacral system. The result is an improved internal environment within the body that frees the central nervous system to return to optimal levels of health and performance. (ref: "craniosacral therapy - what is it, how it works John E. EVERY HORSE AND HUMAN ESPECIALLY THOSE WITH THE "UNSOLVED" WEIRD SYMPTOMS. When your horse has a funny little niggle, unexplained lameness, not able to pick up a lead, head shy, cranky, dwindling performance that you just cannot explain. The horse that has had trauma in its life, the horse that has just had dental work, the performance horse that you want to keep at its best for longer period of time. Any horse of any age, young or old can benefit from CST.

My career happened quite by accident, when my daughters' horse was intermittently lame and the only answer from the vet was to use injections into his joints which was very expensive 20 years ago.
This led me to search for something better that i would be able to do myself, this is when i came across Craniosacral Therapy. I travelled to Queensland with this horse to start my training and the difference in this horse after one treatment was just mind blowing. He moved like he had never moved in his life and the relief in his eyes had me hooked from that day on.
Rescuing animals has always been a thing for me throughout my life and now i had the tools to deliver profound healing that was not only non- invasive but help with the emotional side of healing as well.
It took me quite a few years to take the leap from being employed by someone else to practicing full time as an equine therapist and it is the best thing that i ever did.

I have been practicing Craniosacral Therapy for approximately 17 years. Craniosacral is my primary modality but not the only one that i can use within a session. Over the years i have also introduced acupressure, spinal flow, iridology and massage so that i have the "tools" required when one modality isn't what the horse requires or is up to at that point in time.
At the beginning of my career i was able to feel what was going on in the body with my hands but as the years have gone on my intuition has developed and i would say that my technique has changed and now work more intuitively with the horses' energy as well as the feel under my hands.

I love it when a skeptical owner can see the difference in their horse after a session, but most of all i love to see the peace that can be seen in the horses eyes after a session. this is when i know i have released more than just tissue and the horse is healing from within on its own.

I have so many cases that have influenced me to keep going that it would not be fair to single any one out. Horses going from aggressive and dangerous to be ridden again and those that have been so shut down to alive and having a personality again.

The advice i would give to someone is that even though you are called to work on a horse not all owners are ready for the transformation that will happen.
You have to work with the owner as well as the horse in the journey to overall health and wellbeing.

Sometimes the simplest exercises work the best. They're stress-free, low-impact, and effective. One of these jewels is an exercise from early dressage manuals called the "fading halt." It goes like this: begin in a very brisk walk, then deliberately slow the horse down for several steps, and then smoothly stop moving.

What does this accomplish? As the horse shifts from a forward-pushing gait (brisk walk) to a very slow one, it releases tension from locomotor muscles and allows the horse to flex its hind legs a bit more as it arrives at a halt. It's good neuromuscular training, and it creates good awareness fir the horse of its hind legs. Simple, good stuff. Try it out.
