CHIROPRACTIC CARE

Craniosacral Therapy (CST) is a healing, hands-on, treatment system that helps your body reverse, restore and recover your health issues.

For a provider to become proficient in CST techniques and develop a good skill-set takes learning, patience and practice. Being able to perceive and feel the Craniosacral Rhythm in your hands, being able to positively influence and correct this system during a session involves careful care and extensive experience.

Dr. Kaminsky is a Chiropractor and certified Craniosacral Therapist.

CST alleviates pain, and can improve all functions within the human body, including the spirit and mind-body connection. Understanding by the patient the importance of the craniosacral system and its potential impact on improving and maintaining health is self-evident.

In his office, CST is often combined with SER (somato emotional release), Vagus Nerve Tunning, and Myofascial Release to help the body achieve maximum improvement. Applying these brilliant methods effectively, is the key to creating real change in the human experience.

UNDERSTANDING THE PROPER CARE NEEDED

To properly understand your health issues, my focus during your initial visit is to properly assess where in your mid body, head, limbs or aura you are harboring subluxations and mind-body disturbances that are causing your issues. 

Treatment sessions are intended with focused hand placement along specific areas on your body, including the spine, neck, back, head, limbs and organs.

WE WILL ACHIEVE RESULTS

To understand better how the body really works and heals one must understand the importance of the Craniosacral Mechanism, the System that is innate to human existence. All biological living beings are completely dependent on this system within the physical body. It plays the key role in your physical, mental and emotional function, of being alive, keeping your nervous system functioning, your heart beating, lungs breathing, and everything else working.

To learn about your body’s innate ability to decrease pain, improve function and heal from the hands-on care provided by Dr. Kaminsky, it is important to learn how the body really works and how Craniosacral Therapy methods are applied.

The intention during your treatment session is most importantly, to facilitate the movement of fluid in your body, release physical and energetic restrictions your body is storing and work on achieving optimal nervous system function.

Every session facilitates improvement in function, optimizes your craniosacral mechanism and fine-tunes your body’s life processes. This in turn alleviates your symptoms and reverses diagnosed conditions.

Improved function of the craniosacral mechanism creates a better flow of your body’s energetic and lymphatic system, advances your physical function, improves structure, facilitates a decrease in pain, improves the condition you present with, offers improvement in health, and promotes optimal healing / wellbeing.

Results are attainable. The body heals under the proper care.

How is healing achieved?2018-12-13T14:22:20-04:00

Our bodies are capable of healing. With craniosacral therapy the body conforms to the touch and facilitates a release, often numerous releases.

Every type of release brings you closer to Optimal healthy Function and Well Being, out of pain, improvement in symptoms and potentially your condition reversal.

How does CranioSacral Therapy work?2018-12-13T14:22:13-04:00

From the interaction of the practitioner to the patient via placement of the hands on to the patient’s body, healing begins. The body draws-in the practitioner to where hand placement begins the session and continues to move from region to region on the head, neck, spine and cranium.
