Equine CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle, non-invasive manual therapy that can help horses with a variety of physical and emotional issues:
Relieve tension: CST can help with musculoskeletal issues like stiffness and soreness, as well as postural issues.
Improve nervous system balance: CST can help with nervous system imbalances by increasing activity in the parasympathetic nervous system and decreasing activity in the sympathetic nervous system.
Enhance emotional state: CST can help horses become more relaxed and receptive, which can improve their behavior and make them more cooperative during training.
Support recovery: CST can help horses recover from injuries.
Improve athletic performance: CST can help athletic horses improve their performance.
Suit for anxious horses: CST is gentle enough to be suitable for nervous and anxious horses.
Deepen connection: CST can help foster a deeper connection between the horse and handler.
During CST, a therapist applies gentle pressure to the horse's head, neck, spine, and extremities using fingertips or cupped hands. The therapist uses light contact to release restrictions in the horse's fascia and musculoskeletal system, allowing the body to readjust on its own. The therapist does not manipulate the horse's bones or tissues.
