Craniosacral Therapy
Sun, 2006-06-04 18:25 — David HerronDescription:
CST was pioneered and developed by osteopathic physician John E. Upledger following extensive scientific studies from 1975 to 1983 at Michigan State University, where he served as a clinical researcher and Professor of Biomechanics.
CST is a gentle, hands-on method of evaluating and enhancing the functioning of a physiological body system called the craniosacral system - comprised of the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord.
Using a soft touch generally no greater than 5 grams, or about the weight of a nickel, practitioners release restrictions in the craniosacral system to improve the functioning of the central nervous system.

Jim Gilkeson, B.A., C.M.T, C.S.T. is a creative bodywork therapist, teacher of energy healing, and the author of Energy Healing: A Pathway to Inner Growth (Marlowe & Co.), which the "Father of bio-feedback," Elmer Green, Ph.D., called "the best book I've seen on this subject."
A former brother in a semi-monastic spiritual order, Jim was a co-founder of the Institute for Healing Studies. In his private healing practice, Jim combines subtle energy therapy with cranio-sacral work and therapeutic massage.
His background in meditation and spiritual practice and his love for experiential learning have made him keenly attentive to the developmental and initiatory dimensions of bodywork and energy healing. His teaching style is warm, personal and fun, reflecting his passion for inspiring participants to find their unique qualities and callings, as well as for teaching solid principles and practices of energy healing.
