Craniosacral rhythm is the slow, tidal motion practitioners report feeling at the head and sacrum.
In 📝Craniosacral Therapy the hands listen for that tide and follow it; they do not impose it. The phrase is an experiential model, not settled physiology, not a pulse diagnosis, and not a claim that CSF is being pumped. A 📝still point is a pause in that felt rhythm. If the practitioner feels nothing, the hold still stands — listening is the work.
Clients often feel quiet rather than a rhythm they can name. Dizziness, visual change, or panic is a stop. Unexplained neurological symptoms are a referral.
