Read What a Naturopathic Doctor Has to Say About CST
""I think this therapy (CST) works so well for body mind conditions because it induces the parasympathetic branch of the nervous system, or as it is commonly called, the 'rest and digest' state. This allows the entire body to enter a state of restoration, unlike psychoactive drugs that just dampen the sympathetic response."
 
 "Holistic interventions, like Craniosacral Therapy, work outside the bounds of packaging, culture, language, gender and even mental constraints. As we listen with our hands, we can help patients heal their deepest wounds."
- Dr. Lisa Chavez, Naturopathic Doctor

Hurricane Maria, Puerto Rico Therapy Program
January, 2019

Chas Perry, PhD, CST-D and a team of Upledger therapists from UI Puerto Rico came together for a Clinical Trauma Recovery Class and a Therapy Program for those suffering from Hurricane Maria. The therapists were personally supporting each other, in their own ongoing recovery, while also providing therapy sessions for over 40 people during a very intense three days. 

Even while still in the extended aftermath of Maria, both therapists and clients reported significant somatic and emotional relief and expressed their gratitude. Let’s continue in our intentions and endeavors to make the world a touch better.

New Sort Option For Practitioner Search
We have received requests from those using iahp.com to find a therapist to make the ranking of the search results based on who has taken the most training seminars. So we have added an option under the search fields that says “ Sort By,” where you can click on “ Membership, then Cumulative Training.”
 
Users will still filter for a city or zip code first, then use this new feature to sort the results. Medallion Members still rank highest, but now within that group rather than alphabetically, it is now based on training level, if that option is chosen.
