CranioSacral Therapy & The Immune System

Your immune system is critical to maintaining good health and longevity. Proper functioning of the immune system is influenced by many factors, including environmental, genetic, dietary, and lifestyle. A faulty immune system can lead to chronic inflammation, which is an underlying factor for many common illnesses and diseases.

Come join Upledger Institute International instructor Karen Axelrod, MA, CST-D, as she shares an overview of the immune system, how it works, and how to maintain a healthy immune system during challenging or stressful times. 

Karen is noted for being able to take complex anatomical material and break it down into easily understandable, digestible pieces. In the first half of this two-hour presentation, Karen will overview the difference between the innate and adaptive immune systems and introduce you to important organs that are part of this complex system. We will explore the difference between chronic versus acute inflammation and also look at common illnesses related to immune system deficiencies.

In the second half, Karen will introduce you to hands-on techniques for palpating and influencing immune system function from a craniosacral perspective. She will also provide self-help tips on how to keep your immune system strong and healthy.

The talk includes PowerPoint presentations followed by Q&A sessions. Material presented is sourced from the four-day Upledger course called CranioSacral Therapy and the Immune Response, which is offered online and in-person internationally.

Part of the ‘Developing Confidence Series’ for CSS Members. This event is free to CSS members but you do need to book a place.

Presented by Karen Axelrod.
