The Cranium Cradle



One of the most powerful therapeutic applications imaginable is Cranium Cradle. Cranium Cradle possesses miraculous potentials for healing and health. It also transfixes the brain waves. This offering is well known for easily inducing sleep, relieving anxiety and for tranquilizing a receiver. According to Dr. Frawley’s book entitled: AyurVeda and Marma Therapy, there are traditionally 14 regions and 37 points applicable to the head, neck and face. I will add to this that there are as many areas as we can contour our digits and palms to fit.

Cranium Cradle benefits are ultimately immeasurably positive and for certain must be routinely exercised for any psychological as well as cosmeticological concern. When a practitioner adds their internal process of contracting the perineal region and also focusing on the sound of their own breath while confidently cradling a recipient’s cerebral shell, it is to be expected that potent interior chemicals of known and most certainly unknown identity will intoxicate well the receiver with a true sense of safety, assurance and well-being.

Mighty potent medicine unquestionably!

The cranium can sustain remarkable massaging and manipulative pressure either using palming or with direct concentration and focus of the fingers and thumbs.

I will say very clearly and with emphasis that trained and expert cranial therapy is a sleeping giant with respect to healthcare. Specialists, such as Indian Head Massagers, represent this gifted category and exhibit expertise in sedation as well as rejuvenation techniques. There are many cranial applications to secure astounding results such as cranium cradle and thumb over thumb pressure to the Staphani Marma or mid-forehead area. Scalp Zippering, Hair Feathering and Rolling the cervical neck repeatedly are other examples of several protocols to produce the release of stress and tension that inhibits range of motion locked illusively and harboring perhaps even decades of emotional as well as physical disturbances in the fifth through seventh chakra domains. The Cranium Cradle technique easily transitions the structure to normalcy and integrity. A 7 day course could provide sufficient time for an interested student to learn the techniques and experiences of proficiency for applications to the neck, head and face. There is a lot to disclose with respect and reverence to the Cranium Cradle process and its associative manipulations and handlings

My friends, here are a few little known secrets for procuring an effective Cranium Cradle shamanistic application:

~ It is best to kneel on one or both knees and to rest your elbows gently on the massage table or mat.

~ Always have your face slightly directed away to one side so as not to direct your breath into the receiver’s breath stream or face.

~ It is equally important to remember to hold the receiver’s cranium with the confidence of holding an infant’s head and neck.

~ Soften your neck, shoulders, arms, hands and fingers. All the way from your shoulders to the tips of your fingers you want to conscientiously direct your intention to create softness and openness.

~ Your palms and fingers are to contour perfectly around the cranium which oftentimes includes a portion of the upper posterior neck.

~ The method that will secure profound desirable conditions and also will integrate all other aspects of this therapeutic procedure together is 1) the contraction of the mulabhanda [pubo-cocygyis] perineal region and 2) creating a conscientious breathing resonance known as Ujjayi breathing. Compose a complete breath concerto internally to the delight of both you and the receiver!

~ It is most important also to tune your mental radio to the positive affirmation, mantra or the prayer channel! For obvious reasons do not listen to your drunken monkey mind while your own cranium is so close to the receiver’s cranial field.

~ Imagine your two palms are satellite dishes sending and receiving messages of the most optimistic and affirmative intent.

~ This procedure is meant to be offered for a duration of at least 3 minutes, minimum.

~ Returning to the Cranium Cradle asana several times during a treatment guarantees access and transmission of the essence of anatriptic touch.

I have offered this Cranium Cradle protocol to hyperactive, autistic and retarded children. The successful results brought tears of gratitude to the eyes of the observing parents and caregivers. I have also offered this ultra simple shamanistic therapy to individuals suffering from insomnia, anxiety and depression with astounding results establishing and empowering permanently and undeniably the treatment with the coveted medical status of transformative and healing integrity.

Presently, the Bodywork Community, only just recovering from centuries of dark, inferior and misrepresented therapeutic veracity, is only partially prepared to stand scientifically against the medical rigors of sophisticated clinical research and statistical facts. Yet despite this position, let’s not put the cart before the horse. Let’s bring to life this qualifying and valuable modality. I recommend that we proceed with confidence and professionalism with this procedure and be satisfied and enthusiastic with the obvious anecdotal evidence and support surrounding the results of The Cranium Cradle Therapeutic offering.
