Craniosacral Therapy
What is Craniosacral Therapy (CST)?
CST is a light-touch, whole-body treatment technique developed by John E. Upledger, DO, OMM; works with the body’s craniosacral system to support and nourish the central nervous system —improving overall health and well-being. CST can assist the body in releasing those tension patterns and allow space for the body to self correct. Using a gentle touch, about the weight of a nickel, I will evaluate for strain patterns in the body and use distinctive light-touch techniques to release any restrictions found in the body.
Why is CST important?
Throughout daily life the body endures stresses and strains which an add tension to our tissue. At first this doesn’t cause much of an issue however overtime the body can only handle so much and our tissues begin to tighten as a result to protect the physical body. This can lead to a compromised function of the central nervous system and nearly every other system in your body.
What conditions can be addressed using CranioSacral Therapy?
By complementing the body's natural healing processes, CST is increasingly used as a preventive health measure for its ability to bolster resistance to disease, and is effective for a wide range of medical problems associated with pain and dysfunction, including:

Occupational Therapy Sessions
EDS splint for MCP hyperextension from Silver Ring Splint Company
A hand therapy session is for individuals with hypermobility spectrum disorder or Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) who have difficulty with strength, fine motor control, painful hands/fingers, and overall feels of exhaustion in their hands.
In a hand therapy sessions, we focus on proper assessment for understanding how you use your hand, and how best to support it.
A key tool I often recommend is Silver Ring Splint Company. While there are other types of splints available, these are medical-grade orthoses that providing exceptional structural support and are low profile for ease of wear.
What does a hand therapy session entail:
1. Joint Stability Assessment
We begin by completing a detailed assessment of your hand specific to challenges often seen in EDS, such as:
Hyperextension: When your finger joints (MCP, PIP or DIP) go further than straight.
Small Finger Instability: When you have a hand time finding or using your small finger effectively.
Thumb Instability: Pain at any of the joints of the thumb leading to difficulty pinching or gripping.
2. Sizing and Precision Fitting
Using the Silver Ring Splint Company’s specialized measuring kit, we determine your exact size. These splints are made of high-quality sterling silver, which is durable, hypoallergenic, and made to fit you specific joints!
3. Functional Training for your Independence!
Once we identify the right splint style—such as the Swan Neck Splint or the Boutonniere Splint—we practice real-world tasks. You’ll learn how the splint provides a cue to your body and can support your joints during writing, typing, and hold a coffee mug to minimize feelings of dislocation or subluxation.

CST for Preconception, Pregnancy, Birth & Infancy
Why is Craniosacral Therapy beneficial during preconception, pregnancy and birth??
Craniosacral Therapy can help create a conscious birthing experience. Whether you are in the preconception phase or into the postpartum phase, this modality can be extremely powerful. So many changes take place in an expectant mother’s anatomy which shows shut how incredible the experience of birth can be. These changes are wonderful examples of the body’s innate intelligence and why it’s important to listen deeply to it’s language.
Because of the noninvasive, client- center approach of CST, its principles can be used to empower the mom-to-be to go deeper, getting more in touch with her body’s changing needs on physical and emotional levels throughout gestation in order to trust and prepare her in the most optimum way for labor and birth.
A plan of care can look like:
Monthly appointments leading up to birth that focus on
Session focused on discussion of desired birth preferences and how to create a birth plan
Development of home program to utilize outside of session for empowering family for birth experience
Postpartum focus for both baby and birthing parent

“Jesse is incredibly kind and caring for everyone she works with. The session allowed me to feel like I was floating on a cloud and my thoughts were not buzzing with activity as they normally do. 10/10 would recommend scheduling a cranial session if you’re interested in finding relaxation too.”
