The human skull is made up of 24 bones. These bones are connected to the dura mater, which is a thick membrane (fascia) that covers the brain and the spinal cord and contains the cerebral spinal fluid. The dura mater is also connected to the sacrum (tailbone). Under normal circumstances the bones of the skull, the dura and the sacrum move rhythmically about 10- 14 times per minute. This movement circulates the cerebral spinal fluid throughout the nervous system. Any restriction to this movement will diminish the body's vitality and cause health problems. Craniosacral Therapy involves applying light pressure to the bones of the head to restore normal movement. The Percussor is also used to normalize the craniosacral movement.

I had a lot of lower back pain and leg pain. Every 2-3 months I would be unable to stand erect, walk comfortably or sit for longer than ten minutes. I was no longer able to lead a normal life. No skiing, hiking, biking, walking etc. I was missing time at work. A friend recommended Dr. Whittlesey. I had never been to a chiropractor before. I am very pleased with my treatment and Dr. Whittlesey’s wonderful attitude has my attitude about chiropractic. I regret not coming here 3 years ago.
