What is craniosacral therapy — and why are people turning to it for pain relief, emotional healing, and nervous system regulation?

In this episode, we sit down with Maryann Herklotz, of White Pine Physical Therapy, to explore the science and intuition behind craniosacral therapy (CST). She explains what craniosacral therapy is, how fascia plays a role, how gentle touch can help trigger the body’s natural ability to release tension.

Maryann shares how her own healing journey led her to this subtle but powerful modality, along with what you can expect during a session. We dive into common conditions craniosacral therapy helps with—from TMJ and chronic headaches to pelvic floor dysfunction and nervous system dysregulation. She also offers insight into the importance of body awareness and how CST can deepen your connection to yourself.

Plus, we discuss the entrepreneurial side of healing work and what it’s like to run a holistic practice. If you’re CST-curious or looking to reconnect with your body in a deeper way, this conversation is full of insight, warmth, and practical guidance.
