The Heart of Healing Craniosacral Therapy in Kansas City.

by Nancy Lankston
(Kansas City)

Hi - my name is Nancy Lankston and I specialize in CranioSacral Flow Therapy. Yes, this is an alternative or "woo woo" therapy - you are probably feeling skeptical and a bit silly even reading this. And you are worried about wasting your money because your insurance won't cover this type of therapy.


I felt that way the first time I went for a CranioSacral session back in 1995. And many of my clients admit to feeling the same way at first. "How could this stuff work"? "It's too gentle, it can't possibly help me!" and "What a crock of ...!"


I was so astounded by the power of CranioSacral Therapy that I became a therapist! And now most of my clients find real, lasting relief. Those skeptics turn into my biggest supporters. 90% of my clients find me by word of mouth when old clients tell their family and friends how much this therapy helped them.

"I don't know how it works... all I know is my migraines are gone!"

"My son and I were able to benefit from Nancy's calming, gentle ways. She takes the time to really listen and learn about her clients."

"I am sleeping. The nightmares have stopped. And I feel happier than I have in years"


CranioSacral Flow Therapy is a gentle mix of massage and energy work that focuses on core tissues of the human body; the brain and spine. CranioSacral Flow focuses on sensing and encouraging the "Breath of Life" that is normally present in the fluids around and within the brain and spinal column.


This rhythmic tidal flow within the cerebrospinal fluid has a profound impact on health and the performance of nerves throughout the brain and body - so much so that even small tissue restrictions can cause severe sensory and motor problems such as chronic pain, palsy, loss of sensation or movement, depression, hyperactivity, headaches, insomnia and sucking, chewing or speech difficulties.


I use CranioSacral tidal flow to locate and correct any restrictions or abnormalities in the soft tissues around the brain and spine as well as the ribs, pelvis and shoulder joints. Nerve function is balanced and normalized as the entire body calms. Profoundly gentle and flowing techniques are the foundation of CranioSacral Flow. Many clients fall asleep or enter a meditative state during treatment.


I have been in practice for over 13 years and I am proud to be an Upledger Certified CranioSacral Therapist. I am also a Registered Nurse and Reiki Master-Teacher. I currently split my time between private therapy sessions, teaching classes and writing. I published my first book in 2005; A Still Place.
