CranioSacral Therapy, Brain Injury, and American Football: Time for a Convergence

Eric Leskowitz, MD
Curriculums:

Editor’s Note: Psychiatrist and chronic pain specialist, Eric Leskowitz, MD, retired  recently after 20 years as a member of the Department of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical  School. He continues to lead the Integrative Medicine Task Force at the Harvard affiliated Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital and maintains an avid interest in the  potential of integrative practices in sports‐related contexts. His first column for JACM, in  the May 2017 issue, ‘‘The Zone: A Measurable (and Contagious) Exemplar of Mind‐Body  Integration,’’ examined emerging evidence on athletes seeking that special level of ‘‘in  the zone’’ performance through integrative strategies. In  this, Dr. Leskowitz turns to what may be viewed as the other end of contact sports  performance: concussion and brain injury. The focus is on football, though the  applications may extend to the military. Again, the evidence is only emerging, and begs  more thorough exploration.    —John Weeks, Editor‐in‐Chief, JACM 

Ricky Williams won the Heisman Trophy in 1995, America's highest award for college football players. He went on to have a distinguished professional career with the Miami Dolphins. He was named to the Pro Bowl before he retired in 2011. His unusual career was marked by a 2-year leave of absence during which he studied a range of holistic therapies, including Ayurvedic medicine in India. He found particular benefit from a variant of traditional osteopathy in the cranial field, a technique known as CranioSacral Therapy (CST).2 Williams went on to receive training in CST. In subsequent collaboration with the primary training center for this technique, the Upledger Institute (UI) in Palm Beach, FL, he has organized a CST-based residential treatment program for ex-NFL players with suspected mild TBI.

The Silver Lining: Connections Between the Gut, Brain and Immune System

Michael Morgan LMT, CST-D
Curriculums:

Michael talks about the connections between the gut, brain and immune system. Where there is stress in one, the other will be influenced. That is certainly the down side. But the up side is that the opposite is also true. Where health prevails in one, the other will be influenced. And techniques working with the meningeal and CranioSacral systems reach through the body all the way to the gut. This is one way healthy eating can contribute to a healthy brain. And when modalities such as CranioSacral Therapy are utilized the cleansing and balancing for the brain reaches the gut. In turn the immune system is free to do its job with TRUE invaders.
