CranioSacral Therapy

What is CranioSacral Therapy?

CranioSacral therapy is gentle and noninvasive technique that has been shown to assist with many health and behavioral issues. 

Equine CranioSacral therapy is an uniquely efficient way to keep horses in biomechanical balance and maintain skeletal and muscular health.

CranioSacral therapy is also used successfully in treating specific equine conditions such as headshaking, TMJ (temporomandibular joint) imbalances, head traumas and facial nerve paralysis.
