Craniosacral Therapy to Help ADHD Children Stay Calm and Resilient to Stress
Craniosacral therapy is a gentle and subtle whole body approach that helps the central nervous system reach a state of balance. Unlike massage or other bodywork, craniosacral works on the fluid system of your body like blood, cellular fluid and cerebrospinal fluid in the spinal cord and brain to flow freely. This helps ADHD children reduce frustration and anxiety levels, be more calm and settled because their central nervous system is more able to self-regulate and relax.
