To Stacie (or others interested in cranial sacrial therapy)
by Shirley
Hi Stacie! Hope all is well!
Today we took Troy to get cranial sacral therapy. I'm not sure if it was the "real thing". The therapist at the place I went to was wonderful. She told me that he had a headache when she was working on him. And it was a bad one. She explained how she could tell. He surprisingly sat very still for her. Not at first, but more and more. Then she moved onto his feet and did reflexology, which, I believe is more her thing. She was able to tell us where his digestive problems were the most. His ankles needed adjusted because he walks on his toes and she did them. He was very relaxed while she did his feet. She also told me that he was extremely tired. (which he does tend to be either lethargic or hyperactive...2 gears only)
The cranial sacral therapy looked more like an intense head massage. What did yours look like?
Afterwards we took him to a playland and he was very happy. She said that while dextoxing (chelating) he will have alot of headaches. I've told everyone that I've thought he's had headaches for awhile, so I don't doubt her. He seems so much more relaxed and happy. And NO signs of a headache. He has been very affectionate and has good eye contact. (but those are his strengths anyway, considering his autism)
