Craniosacral therapy is becoming a common way to treat patients with tinnitus. Because tinnitus has many different underlying causes, it can be difficult to treat it with a single approach. Part of what separates this therapy from other treatments is that it is in many cases able to treat the underlying causes of imbalance in the body’s nervous system.
Tinnitus usually presents as a ringing or buzzing sound in the ears which can typically only be heard by the person who has this condition. Craniosacral therapy can reduce restrictions of certain bones, specifically the temporal bone as well as muscles and ligaments which can play a significant role in making this problem worse for many people.
The craniosacral system consists of various membranes as well as cerebrospinal fluid which protect the brain along with the spinal cord which extends from the very bones of the skull to the tailbone region of the body. This part of the body can affect imbalance as well as dysfunction of the motor and sensory abilities.
Just like the body’s cardiovascular system, the craniosacral system can be felt throughout the entire body. By applying a little bit of pressure to the body in certain areas, those who are trained in this specific type of therapy are able to locate specific points which may have blockages and problems that can be causing problems with imbalance as well as tinnitus.
While craniosacral therapy is certainly not a universal cure for those who have tinnitus, it can be an effective weapon in the battle against it. Those who have tried many other types of treatments or medications for their tinnitus to no avail will certainly want to consider this as a viable option.
Once the source of a blockage in a certain area of the body has been pinpointed, a skilled and experienced therapist will be able to naturally move the fluid as well as soft tissue to help he body heal in a natural and self-correcting manner. This is certainly considered to be one of the more natural and safe methods of relieving tinnitus symptoms for those who are struggling with it.
