Cranial sacral therapy is a deeply relaxing and extremely effective treatment approach, assessing and gently balancing the hydraulic cranial-sacral system, which generates our cranial rhythmic impulse.
Our cranial-sacral system expands and contracts, similar to when we breathe, and is often referred to as our "primary respiratory mechanism".
Cerebrospinal fluid bathes and cushions the brain and spinal cord, carrying nutrients from the blood, and eliminating waste products from the brain. Improving cranial motion allows this pumping mechanism to circulate cerebrospinal fluid efficiently.
The occlusion (the way the upper and lower teeth fit together when we bite), can have a powerful structural and neural impact on the cranial vault. Treatment of the face & jaw can be very beneficial.
Cranial nerve assessments can be performed, and cranial neuro-sequencing can often help to integrate and normalize cranial nerve function over time. Improving cranial nerve function allows us to experience the world in a much more enjoyable way!
Restoration of the natural motion within this system restores homeostasis to the nervous system, and allows the body to return to a profound sense of well-being. As a result, there can be a reduction and/or elimination in headaches, migraines, neck pain, jaw pain, sinus issues, low back pain, SI joint pain & more!

“I love Full Circle Wellness, they are very knowledgeable and professional. I have been struggling with craniofacial pain, and TMJ. Hands down this is the best, and most helpful treatment I have received. I would highly recommend this place.”
P. Weix
“I’ve dealt with chronic atlas subluxation for many years, resulting in neck and back pain that’s limited my quality of life at times. After trying massage, PT, working with a trainer, chiro, acupuncture, and seeing a pain doctor, I finally found relief through Myofascial therapy. My first phone conversation with Melissa gave me hope as she started figuring out contributing problems in my body just by hearing about my pain patterns. I’ve seen her for a few years now and am continually impressed by her knowledge, experience, assessments and professionalism. She has helped me with TMJ, hip alignment, neck tension, learning diaphragmatic breathing, proper ergonomics, and back release. Thank you so much Melissa!!! I would be a total mess without you. I highly recommend Full Circle!!”

“Melissa has helped me with so many things. She has helped me with chronic neck pain, not only repair but rehab and strength for it. She has helped me to completely resolve heart burn. These two things are huge but in addition she has helped me trust my body again and not feel broken.”
R. Huston
“After trying many, many different treatments for chronic occipital neuralgia, I was referred to Melissa. From the beginning her compassionate and intuitive approach provided relief. Sometimes small, sometimes large shifts in my body’s mechanics happen with each visit and I am always delighted to see what unfolds.”
