Craniosacral – Concepts, Principles, History

This collection contains posts that are primarily about craniosacral concepts, principles of treatment, and history. This is a great place to grok the landscape of this field.

Concepts, like the difference between biodynamic and osteopathic approaches, help to understand craniosacral through contrast. Similarly, Principles, like joint play and skeletal correlations, help to put the treatment into a usable context. Finally, history and individual cases help to provide practical perspectives when conceptual ideas need to be grounded.
