Homeopathy is a 200 year old system of medicine following the basic principles of the law of similars, the law of infinitesimals, the law of chronic disease and the law of cures.  The law of similars means "like cures like". For, example a bee sting will cause puffy, tender swelling.  Apis venenum purum - a dilution of bee venom - is used to relieve the swelling and pain of insect bites.  The law of infinitesimals refers to the practice of dilution, which is the preparation of a homeopathic remedy.  The law of chronic disease states that if the correct homeopathic remedy does not improve health, it's because earlier use of pharmaceutical products drove the disease deeper into the body.  Dr. Kerry perceives symptoms as the body's attempt to heal itself. For this reason, a patient may feel worse before he or she feels better. The law of cures states that first, the body attempts to push illnesses outward. Second, a cure moves from the top of the body downward.  Third, symptoms are healed in the reverse order of when they appear. Thus, homeopathy stimulates the vital force to restore balance and health of the mind/body/spirit.

CST works with the craniosacral system, which is composed of the head, vertebrae, and sacrum, as well as the cerebral spinal fluid and the brain. However, the Cranial Wave is felt throughout the entire body and can be disrupted due to any number of events throughout our life. The health of the body is deeply rooted in this the rhythm and restrictions can show up in the tissues as various symptoms and health concerns. CST can benefit those suffering from headaches, migraine, ADD/ADHD, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, muscular-skeletal pain, emotional distress, and PTSD to name a few. CST is also very beneficial for those seeking immune support, spiritual growth, pain relief, and an overall increase in wellness.
