Craniosacral therapy for neck and jaw tension ASMR

Sitka (who was in this video with us last year    • Footwork Episode 1: deep Achilles rel...  ) has chronic issues with her left upper cervical, which gives her massive headaches. She has been headache-free for some time so our approach today was gentle and conservative but direct and effective.

Gentle, low-force adjustments to the occiput (C0), sphenoid, frontal, parietal, and jaw.

Below are links for further reading about cranial sutures and their function, structure, and mobility.

Thanks for watching, we welcome your comments and questions!
