Autism and DyslexiaThere is much speculation on the causes of Autism. Some cases are thought to result from vaccines. Others may develop from birth trauma, a fall, or blunt force to the head. This may cause the bones of the skull become misaligned, creating pressure or tension in vital areas of the brain. In the case of Dyslexia, the right temporal bone is commonly affected. Regardless of the cause, therapies involving touch require patience and exploration. CranioSacral Therapy is the only technique we offer that can help with some forms of Autism and Dyslexia. This gentle technique focuses on mobilizing the soft tissue connecting the bones of the skull, allowing them to properly realign and relieve undue pressure. The therapist uses a very soft touch, roughly the weight of a nickel. We have no way of knowing which clients will benefit from CranioSacral Therapy. It becomes a matter of trial and error. If you are interested in trying CST, please allow up to four weekly visits before ruling it out as a viable therapy. For more information please feel free to call us or visit
