Cranial osteopathy is a very gentle, yet extremely powerful system. It uses the patients 'cranial rhythm' for evaluation and treatment.

Cranial rhythm is a cyclical expansion and contraction of all the tissues of the body, which is distinct from all other known body rhythms (e.g. heart beat) and can be felt in all parts of the body.

Using very gentle touch the cranial rhythm is assessed for what stresses and strains your body is under at present and as a result of the past.
