Craniosacral Therapy InformationThis site is an independent site providing information about the benefits of craniosacral therapy and has no financial interest or connection with any craniosacral therapy organisation. The intention is to allow visitors to make an informed choice at a time when vested interests are attempting to prevent access to alternative and complementary therapies. Craniosacral Therapy Information is owned and maintained by a former research scientist who believes that many conventional treatments can be counter productive in the longer term, and that a natural and non-invasive approach can be beneficial to overall health. I believe that the word ‘scientific’ has been hijacked by a medical industry more interested in making money than restoring good health, and that a more truly open and scientific approach should include alternative ways of thinking about health. For more on this please see the page on medical conditions, and if you are brave, have a look at the news page. As a former scientist who worked for several years in the research laboratories of a multinational pharmaceutical and chemical company, I am amazed how many of the medical 'breakthroughs' we hear about are actually commercial modifications of alternative and traditional therapies, and I have no doubt that one day craniosacral therapy will be recognised by medical scientists who are motivated by a desire to improve health rather than make profits. I now work in the field of science education, mainly in primary schools, with a Science for Children project, encouraging and motivating children to develop an interest in science, through developing thinking and questioning skills. It is essential that children develop an open attitude to new ideas, and this is achieved by teaching an understanding of ideas and evidence in science. This work is enhanced through the performance of entertaining science shows for primary schools, enabling children to learn that science is fun!
