Why go for Craniosacral Therapy? Hi there, my name is Elma O'Sullivan and I am a certified CranioSacral Therapist working in Cork City.

I have worked with people with many different types of ailments and illnesses. Conditions which responded to CST have ranged from colic, trigeminal neuralgia, autism, acute back ache, old whiplash injury, immobility due to arthritis and illness, insomnia, anxiety and prior to orthodontic treatment, just to mention a few.


It is very interesting work as so many conditions respond to CST treatment. I find it wonderful that clients with severe disabilities who might otherwise be unable to have other therapies can be treated with CST and feel the benefits.


My background is in physiotherapy, I qualified from Trinity College Dublin in 1980 as a chartered physiotherapist and worked in the Regional Hospital, now CUH, and St Finbarr?s Hospital Cork . I gained a lot of experience in rehabilitation, orthopaedic medicine and respiratory therapy.


When I had a family I took a break but had an interest in women?s health. To that end I trained as an antenatal teacher with Cuidiu (The Irish Childbirth Trust) and it was through my work with them that I came across CranioSacral Therapy.


Over the years I have been training with the Upledger Institute and am now a qualified practitioner in CranioSacral Therapy, CST-T, and love my work.


Craniosacral Therapy is such a gentle therapy and beneficial for all age groups. Whilst a lot of people know about it in relation to colic and other infantile problems I would like to see more older people experience it and become aware of its therapeutic benefits, be it over a course of treatment for specific problems or as a regular one off session to boost overall health and well being.


My practice is in Ballintemple in Cork City and do the occasional home visit. I normally work mornings and some evenings.
