For
content, refer to syllabus below.

THREE SYSTEMS
OF CRANIAL THERAPY ARE PRESENTED:
**Neuromuscular
Therapy for the Cranium
**Sutherland/Upledger
Cranio-Sacral Therapy
**Fischer/Stone
Cranial Mobilization
The 3 systems
of cranial therapy are then integrated into a 52 step protocal treatment
plan
There are
3 stages to Cranial Therpy--1) rehabilitation 2) core relaxation/normalization
3) rejuvenation/regeneration
The cranium
is the vital pattern setter for the entire body, a complex network
of tissues, glands, muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia, membranes,
nerves, arteries, veins, capillaries and fluids.
This is the
wrapping of the primary control center for the body, mind, emotions,
instincts and other functions that are yet unknown.
This can be
used a therapy by itself, or combined with deep tissue and other
therapies to carry the work to an even deeper level.
With the integrative
approach, the prepartory work of releasing the myofascial system
of the cranium before the more subtle work of cranio-sacral therapy
is given, create a more powerful, synergistic effect, maximizing
therapy time.
The Cranial
Mobilization of the Fischer/Stone tradition is a further enhancement
for the over all balancing of the cranium.

INTEGRATIVE CRANIAL THERAPY HAS BEEN KNOWN TO BE HELPFUL IN
MANY CASES OF:
**slowing down the aging process
**accidents, injuries, direct trauma
**severe blows to any part of the body
**headaches of all varieties: migraines, cluster, tension, sinus
**sinus congestion, pain and infections
**depression and other emotional problems
**acute systemic infections
**tinnitis, ear problems, ear pain, hearing loss
**anxiety, hysteria, post-traumatic stress, insomnia
**T.M.J. syndromes, jaw, face and scalp pain
**whiplash and neck pain
**learning disabilities as well as other disabilities such as
austim, cerebro-palsy, attention deficit disorders, seizures, hyperkinesis,
dyslexia and developemental delays
**visceral dysfunctions such as ulcers, irritable bowel syndrome,
asthma, irregular heart beat
**vision problems, blurred vision, eye pain
**can increase intuition, creativity and dreaming
**assists a person in times of transition and change, helping
to adjust to upheavels and turmoil
**chronic pain syndromes of a wide variety
**arthritis; rheumatoid and other joint disorders
**low back pain and scoliosis
**autonomic nervous system disorder: Raynaud's syndrome
Integrative Cranial Therapy does not replace competent medical
treatments, when needed. This therapy works in conjunction with
skilled allopathic care. Those in severe pain are reccomended to
work with their medical doctor as well as receiving regular Integrative
Cranial Therapy
