CST Basic Elements 2 (BE2): The Cranium

Prerequisite: BE1 or equivalent training

This three-day class is a continuation of fundamental aspects of craniosacral therapy and builds on
knowledge and applications learned in BE1, now focusing on the cranium and intracranial
membranes. These topics will be discussed:
• anatomy, palpation and treatment methodology of the cranial vault
• meningeal membranes, cranial nerves
• use of the cranial bones as handles to manually influence the fluid dynamics and reciprocal
tension mechanisms of the craniosacral system
• relationship of prominent facial bones to the cranial vault

The attending student–combining knowledge and skills acquired in this class and BE1–will be able
to do a more thorough assessment of the craniosacral system and facilitate therapeutic change in the
intracranial membranes that surround the central nervous system.
