Liberated from Polio's Effects

" A fifty-two year old woman suffering the effects of polio came to see me. She had to walk on her tiptoes on one foot to compensate for the shorter leg.She had endured numerous surgeries throughout her life to try to lengthen the leg-and she had the scars on her calf and Achilles to prove it.

At the time I began the CranioSacral therapy session, I knew only that she had had polio, but I did not know the specifics."....As I worked,the tissue began to soften,particular bones in the skull moved into a better position and when working on her pelvis, that bony area began to move, as did her spine, like a rope that was untwisting...I worked on her right leg for about 20 minutes.

I felt restrictions in the tissue releasing and her leg lengthening. "I had goose bumps fom my head to my toes and continued to allow her body to reorganize...She was in a state of deep alpha and felt nothing , she said later."

Editor's note:CST does truly work wonders. I have had similar experiences and have worked with a post-polio person and was able to give her a great deal of relief from pain.
