The Stress Cradle passively reproduces one particular technique regularly used by Osteopaths for relaxing neck muscles, where the Osteopath applies gentle, passive pressure to the neck muscles where they meet the back of the skull and scalp.
Relaxing these tissues helps:
- reduce muscle tension
- improve blood flow to/from the scalp
- ease neck joint stiffness
- improve lymph drainage from the scalp
How it works
This device was conceived by Andrew Bellamy after years of observing and treating the causes and often debilitating consequences of stress-related headaches and upper neck tension. These problems are very common and can of course be dealt with by regular, competent manual therapists like Registered Osteopaths, physiotherapists and many other therapies.
However, Andrew wanted a simple, inexpensive way of allowing the sufferer to be able to continue their therapy at home, at least in part. You might say to be able to take part of their professionally trained therapist home with them. Their hands!
It was with these people in mind that the design was conceived and has been slowly and carefully developed over the last four years.
The Stress Cradle passively reproduces one particular technique regularly used by Osteopaths for relaxing neck muscles, where the Osteopath applies gentle, passive pressure to the neck muscles where they meet the back of the skull and scalp.
Relaxing these tissues helps to reduce muscle tension, improve blood flow to and from the scalp, ease neck joint stiffness and improve lymph drainage from the scalp.
Registered Osteopaths and other manual therapists have used cranio-sacral therapy for many years. This therapy has many uses but relaxation of the tissues of the spine and scalp are high on the list.
