Stillpoint
Posted on 01/15/2009 10:24 pm by JeanPaulWelcome to Stillpoint Acupuncture!
Why Stillpoint?

The term ‘stillpoint’ is taken from Cranio-Sacral Therapy, and refers to a point in time when the cranio-sacral system is completely still, neither expanding nor contracting. This moment can sometimes last for minutes, and is often experienced as a feeling of deep peace pervading the body. This is an experience of pure equilibrium, when the body can be free of stress, and can find its own way back to a healthy and lasting balance.
Acupuncture helps to remind the body where balance is, and how to come back to it. This is the healing experience. A stillpoint experience is a common one for patients of acupuncture, with many people finding a deep, abiding sense of rest and relaxation from their treatments.
This is what we seek at Stillpoint Acupuncture: balance and harmony, peace and good health.

This system acts as a pump, pushing cerebrospinal fluid up and down the spine. More….
