craniofacial.
CranioFacial Therapy (CFT) releases stress and tension within the muscles of the face and within the cranio vault that houses our brain. Stress or tension can be caused by mental, emotional, physical or spiritual experiences that can compromise homeostasis of the brain, other parts of the physical body or aura. Whether acute or chronic, the cause and effect from these imbalances places additional stress or tension on or within the brain.
This can lead to further fatigue and mental strain often causing our ego to act out. Clearing the mind of negative energetic toxins through craniosacral and myofascial releases will help the spirit mind and body return to a well balanced and peaceful facial expression.
CFT can be a very effective modality for those suffering with the effects of the following conditions: ADD, ADHD, asthma, autism, back aches, cerebral palsy, colic, dyslexia, earaches, epilepsy, headaches, hyperactivity, learning disorders, neck aches, reflux, scoliosis, sinus conditions, strabismus, throat conditions, TMJ syndrome, and a wide variety of chronic ailments. The earlier in life that a person receives therapy the better their outcome will be.
The Trauma of Birth: The origin of many chronic conditions can start in utero or at birth due to fetal trauma, a long labor, the actual delivery (as the baby's head and body are pushed through the birth canal with tremendous force), the umbilical cord wrapped tightly around the throat or body and /or the use of forceps or a vacuum suction tube. The distortion of the tiny skull bones and the resulting soft tissue pressure on the brain and the rest of the body from these birth traumas, if left untreated, can last a lifetime. CFT directly after birth can be very corrective for many conditions and may prevent a lifetime of pain and suffering for a child. Treatment can also benefit the mother who experienced pelvic trauma during the delivery.
