CST 1 Course Description:
This course is designed to introduce the basic components of the Craniosacral System. Building upon this base of anatomical and theoretical knowledge, participants will learn a variety of safe and effective ways to influence the Craniosacral System and thus the environment that houses, supports, and nurtures the Central Nervous System. Participants will come away from this course knowing how to apply the “11-Steps to Heaven Protocol” (based on the approach of Dr. John Upledger, D.O., O.M.M.D.) to a wide variety of patients and conditions.
Craniosacral Therapy deals with the membranes, osseous structures (primarily the bones of the cranial vault and the sacrum), fascia (dural membranes & meninges), and cerebrospinal fluid, which support the brain, spinal cord, and spinal nerve roots. Adhesions in this system can result in mild to severe dysfunction including headaches, chronic pain, TMJ, and other neurological impairments.
Course Objectives
Obtain a clear overview of the components and functioning of the Craniosacral System.
Acquire palpatory skills that will allow assessment of the Craniosacral Rhythm anywhere on the body.
Understand the proper movement of the individual bones of the cranial vault and how to safely and effectively decompress them.
Learn techniques for working with the myofascial system anywhere on the body to quickly, easily, and non-intrusively release tension and holding patterns.
A partial list of conditions that these techniques can address includes the following:
- Back and Neck Pain Headaches and Migraines Chronic Pain
- TMJ Traumatic Head Injury Scoliosis
- Chronic Fatigue Syndrome CVA Fibromyalgia
- Strains, Sprains, & Breaks PTSD Sleeping Disorders
- Learning Disabilities Vertigo/ Tinnitus Muscular Imbalances

I founded Warm Hands Therapeutics in early 1995, after graduating from Brenneke Massage School in Seattle (now Cortiva Institute). Prior to that, I spent a decade as a Physical Therapist Assistant in a variety of settings. I began studying Craniosacral Therapy in 1992 & certified in that modality in 2000 through the Upledger Institute. I began teaching Craniosacral Therapy nationwide in 2001. I am certified as an Advanced Medical Massage practitioner & have been teaching Medical Massage Nationwide for the past 9 years. I am a certified Personal Trainer with a Corrective Exercise Specialty certification through NASM.
My classes are kept small to allow each student to leave class with a thorough understanding of the material presented & the confidence to integrate these techniques into their practice immediately.
A comprehensive, illustrated Course Manual is included, providing detailed explanations of the anatomy & releases taught in this course.
