Craniosacral (CST) Level II (CE)

Craniosacral Therapy Level II ~ Exploring the Layers

In this comprehensive three-day course, participants will deepen their understanding of craniosacral assessment and treatment by learning to detect dysfunction and restore balance within the cranial base, hard palate, floor of the mouth, and facial bones.

The class combines lecture, demonstration, and extensive hands-on practice to support confident clinical application. Techniques emphasize working with complex cranial base dysfunctions, the bony structures of the face, the masticatory system, and the hard palate.

Participants Will

• Review and expand foundational concepts from Craniosacral Level I, including energetic awareness, practitioner boundaries, and assessment skills
• Explore cranial nerve relationships and their influence on structural and functional balance
• Study the history, philosophy, and clinical application of Dr. William Sutherland’s cranial base lesion model
• Evaluate and gently address restrictions within the facial bones, masticatory system, and hard palate through refined palpation and treatment techniques
• Integrate an understanding of sphenobasilar patterns and craniofacial relationships to support balanced function within the craniosacral system and the whole person

Prerequisite

Completion of Craniosacral Therapy Level I or equivalent training.
