I googled for it and found an article by a doctor at U Mich that did developmental studies on CST. It sounds interesting enough... Are they having you stop using preventatives before beginning therapy (assuming you are on some)? And is it expensive? Does insurance over it? Keep us informed.

It's regulated as a form of massage or physical therapy. Haven't tried it, don't know if any one here has for clusters.

I'm kind of a jerk when it comes to this stuff and rarely can just sit and let a thread go by with a "good luck, hope it works for you".
Read this:

Quackwatch has no axes to grind so I believe most of what I find there when it comes to this kind of stuff.
Sorry.

I had a massage therapist who wanted me to do it, but said that there are a limited amount of therapists who know how to do it right and she was not one of them. I never looked any further.

Have to disagree with you on that, Scott. Quackwatch sometimes puts out good stuff, sometimes not. They have launched some bizzare lawsuits that were laughed out of court. Quackwatch is the product of one person, a Dr. Barrett:
Quote:At trial, under a heated cross-examination by Negrete, Barrett conceded that he was not a Medical Board Certified psychiatrist because he had failed the certification exam.
This was a major revelation since Barrett had provided supposed expert testimony as a psychiatrist and had testified in numerous court cases. Barrett also had said that he was a legal expert even though he had no formal legal training.
The most damning testimony before the jury, under the intense cross-examination by Negrete, was that Barrett had filed similar defamation lawsuits against almost 40 people across the country within the past few years and had not won one single one at trial.

I can tell you that Quackwatch's read on Traditional Chinese Medicine is 20% standard precautions, 10% decent analysis, and 70% ignorant caricature. If everyone here followed the Quackwatch orthodoxy, kudzu would have never been tried for clusters.

Can't find a single reference to Kudzu on Quackwatch through their search engine.
As far as Quackwatches percentages of being on target I tend to view their input to the conversation with more veracity than I do the chiropractic community that seem to come up with new revenue streams from developing great treatments like this Cranial Sacral Therapy. I read about this on the sites that were supposedly positive about it and all I could come up with as a response was, "what a crock."
Here's from the College Of Cranial Sacral Therapy":
"Cranio-Sacral Therapy involves a very gentle touch of the practitioners hands, both for diagnosis and for treatment. This light contact may be taken up on the cranium, the sacrum or any other part of the body as appropriate.
Through this light touch the practitioner is able to pick up subtle patterns of motion within the body - rhythms, pulls, pulsations - emanating from deep within the core structures of the body. These movements are a reflection of Cranio-Sacral motion which is expressed in all tissues throughout the body.
Every condition affecting a person influences this movement, creating asymmetries or restrictions to Cranio-Sacral motion. The Cranio-Sacral Therapist can therefore diagnose every condition through the corresponding patterns of resistance within the Cranio-Sacral system.
By responding appropriately to these patterns - in other words by gently allowing the subtle movements deep within the body to unwind themselves - the Cranio-Sacral Therapist can enable and facilitate the release of Cranio-Sacral restrictions. Release at these profound regulatory levels in turn enables the release of disease conditions throughout the body."
And then more, here's a list of what Cranial Sacral THerapy can help:
"Cranio-Sacral Therapy is also particularly valuable in solving and resolving difficult and persistent conditions. The following are just a few examples of the many conditions that might benefit from Cranio-Sacral treatment:
Headache, Migraine, Period Pains.
Asthma, Sinusitis, Bronchitis, Cystitis.
Frozen Shoulder, Arthritis, Sciatica, Chronic/c Sprained Ankle, Joint Disorders, RSI.
Digestive Problems, Whiplash Injuries, Spinal Curvatures.
Back Pain, Neck Pain, Persistent pain anywhere in the body.
Tension, Anxiety, Insomnia, Visual Disturbances.
Lack of Energy.
Problems during and after Pregnancy, Depression, Post-Operative Effects, Adhesions.
Baby Care, Colic, Pyloric Stenosis, Feeding Difficulties.
Ear Infections, Glue Ear, Tonsillitis, ENT Problems.
Compression of the skull due to a difficult birth, with its many after effects.
Learning Difficulties, Dyslexia, Squint, Lazy Eye.
Hyperactivity, Autism, Epilepsy, Cerebral Palsy.
Behavioural Disorders, Tantrums, Obsessional Behaviour.
Dental and TMJ Problems.
Head Injuries, and their subtle influence on personality and mental state.
Meningitis and its chronic consequences.
Post Viral Syndrome, ME, Glandular Fever, Fatigue.
The after effects of any chronic illness or debilitating disease."
I'll buy the fact that Quackwatch may not be right on everything. But I think they're right on in this case.

They don't mention kudzu specifically, but conceptually it falls under their article "Be wary of Acupuncture, Qigong and "Chinese Medicine" which has a link on their index page.
I'm no expert on cranialism, but my understanding of it is as a form of massage or physical therapy - I'm guessing that it might be an adjunct or supportive therapy for CH, (like massage, chiro, etc) but I am some what sceptical that it would do wonders. But I don't know that much about it.

Yeah, that's as far as I'll go. On that. 
Quackwatch also hates osteopaths, and many cranial techniques are from osteopathy. I don't know much about that either, but about ten years ago, I heard the osteopaths have a technique for fixing a deviated septum. It involves inflating a balloon in the nose to push the septum back into place. A lot less traumatic than the standard procedure of breaking the nose with a hammer and then re-setting it. But there weren't any osteopaths near me, so I never pursued it. Guess what? Just a month ago I heard that mainstream doctors have discovered a 'new' procedure for fixing deviated septums using a balloon that is inflated in the nose!!
Quote:July 4, 2006
ASK THE DOCTOR: Shari Rudavsky
Balloon procedure clears sinuses
Dr. James Ulm, an assistant professor of otolaryngology at the Indiana University School of Medicine, talks about a new treatment for sinus infections.
Question: Tell me about the new balloon sinuplasty treatment.
Answer: I've used it now for four or five months and have done it on about 10 patients. We do it as an outpatient procedure, under general anesthetic.
There's a flexible catheter, at the end of which is an inflatable balloon. The catheter is flexible enough to navigate the little twists in the nose and the sinus passage. Once we get the catheter inside the sinus passage, we inflate the balloon and gently widen the sinus passage without causing too much damage. We restructure the bone and soft tissue and dilate the passageway to allow drainage of the sinus.
The dilation only takes about five minutes, and then we remove the catheter. The balloon is strong enough to move bone and tissue in a safe manner. It's very similar to balloons they use to dilate coronary arteries, except these are stronger.
...
This looks very promising. It's probably the most exciting breakthrough in our speciality in the past 10 years. |

Hey Folks -
I just found this forum yesterday. I've been suffering from CH's since I was 18 years old. I'm an episodic sufferer - they come on at the beginning of each Season - and the period during which I'm prone to CH's lasts from 1-2 months. I get 1-2 (sometimes 3) CH's a day which last 1 hour. My pain is *always* Kip Scale 10 after 6 days of "ramping up" to the full potential my CH's offer. Pain is *always* behind my right eye. I take no medication for my pain. I have, on occasion, taken aspirin - but that only helps when my headaches are "ramping" up. Oddly enough espresso, if consumed before the pain ramps up..aborts the CH's for the day. However, usually once I go to sleep..I will wake up in full panic/pain mode.
2 things: Acupuncture works very well for me. Approx. 5 years ago, I started acupuncture for stress-related health problems. Not much was happening with my headaches. Then, 3 years into receiving acupuncture weekly...a miracle happened. For the first time in my life, I went a year without a headache! Then, I had a few over the course of a few days...then, nothing again for another year! Oh my god, I'm sure you can imagine the relief/disbelief that something prevented them from occuring. My acupuncturist, who works at The Oregon College of Oriental Medicine in Portland, OR has told me, in short, that stress is the cause of my headaches....which causes a TCM (traditional Chinese Medicine) syndrome called "Liver Yang Rising." With his guidance, and through getting in touch with my body, I have come to strongly believe that stress is the true trigger of this bastard pain.
FYI: These two points, used bilaterally (ie: on both sides of body at same time), when needled, or done with acupressure, can reduce/eliminate the pain if done before the pain ramps up. The points are LI4 (large intestine 4) & GB41 (gall bladder 41).
OK, now to make things relevant. I practice CranioSacral Therapy as taught by the Upledger Foundation: www.upledger.com
This is *not* quack science. Dr. John Upledger is an Osteopathician, as well as an acupuncturist & an MD. What he teaches is based upon observable, reproducable physiological phenomenon. Osteopathy has been around for a looong time, longer than MD's have been "legitimate" Dr's (which only occured in the 1950's).
While I can't say that CranioSacral Therapy is *the* cure, or even a cure (since these things are so unique to everyone) - I can say that certain of the techniques used in CST may help relieve pain.
Several days ago, for the first time in approx. 1 year (or more) I started getting The Beast again....The trigger was over 20 hours driving in 2 days time, in addition to the stress of leaving for a residential school in the next 30 days. Upon feeling the "ramping up" phase, I immediately scheduled acpuncture appointments. Thanks to them, the pain has only once been a Kip 10, the rest were 6 or 7 (a pleasant place to be compared to 10). However, I also began feeling "shadows" lasting all day. These shadows were quite annoying, about 3-4 or maybe 5 on the Kip scale.
I taught my wife (a massage therapist) how to do a CST technique called "The Platform Release" - this technique removes tension between the Occiput (back of head) & the Atlas (first Cervical vertebrae). To my amazement, the shadows left and stay away for hours to days at a time. Repeated "platform releases" offer longer & longer relief of shadow pain. Further, no more headaches.
CST is real science that works on the Cranial Nerves (in addition to the cranial bones along with cranial/spinal fluid) - which, after reading information on this site - I have learned are probable sources of pain.
Don't poo-poo this stuff. It is powerful & life changing. The people I practice on love the therapy, and are eager to receive treatments from me. As far as we CH sufferers go, I think we should be open to anything that could possibly relieve the hell we endure.
At the least, CST can dramatically reduce stress on a long-term basis (for me, it's more relaxing than massage)...and you all know how stressful the CH's can be!
Good luck everyone!

I'd hate to say this, but the "balloon technique" is painful beyond painful. Exceedingly painful. However, it is highly recommended for the problems it can treat.

Dear Cranial, did you name yourself after the post or was that just an interesting coincidence. I'm not being fresh - I really wonder.
I think almost anything can help us, and at another time the same thing could hurt us. This is such a fickle beast.

I don't know about the mysterious pressure points and the magical energy stuff in asian medicine, but massage is always great. As I posted in the "massage therapy" subject, my wife has been infinately patient during cluster cycles. With her massaging my temples, jaw, head and neck I've made it through many attacks that would have been KIP10+ otherwise. And as in many other posts - the TENS (electrical nerve stimulation) has helped me out tremendously. I'm surprised more haven't tried it and had success with it. For anyone at their wits end, it is certainly worth a try.
Prayers for all, Rich

Well, I intended on being just a lurker...until I happened to see this thread about CST - which I know something about since I practice it.
I know what you mean about how things can help us, then later hurt us. Strategies that have helped me cope during one cycle would only hurt the next cycle!
However, I really feel that learning to get in touch with true relaxation is a very powerful, side-effect free defense/offense against the pain.
I'd like to make a point about Chinese Medicine. Sure, it seems like "magic" & "mysterious" - yet, it is a science that has been around for over 5,000 years! Think about that for a moment.
Western Medicine has *only* been legitimate & licensed since the 1950's here in the U.S.!
In other words, the Chinese have been documenting the body & illness for 4,900 years longer than Western Dr's have.
Further, many Western medications on the market today have "unknown" mechanism of action...Whereas, for each of the thousands of herbs in the Chinese pharmacopeia there is a thorough (and extremely well documented) understanding of their action on the body/mind/spirit.
Which practice, therefore, is more "magical" & "mysterious"?
I have to admit my bias right up front, my partner is an acupuncture student &, frankly, I attribute my life & my sanity to acupuncture offering me the first & only long term relief I've ever enjoyed from CH's.

I'm not sure where you got the mysthical & mysterious thing? Did I miss that in the thread? (OK. I see it was in the post right after mine.)
I use liquid kudzu extract, but I think of it as an american product since it was manufactured in Illinois.
I forgot to say, "Welcome aboard. Also, if you answered my question, I missed it. I'm not 100% today.

That's a specious legitimization. There's quite a bit about medical history that doesn't wear well on anyone if you look at the last 150 years. It doesn't mean Osteopathy was doing anything all that great in the late 1800's and early 1900's than those who were wrongly practicing medicine.
There will always be room for legitimate medicine to learn more about the mysteries of the human body. And those mysteries seem to be packed awfully tightly into what's happening with DNA and RNA. I'll stick with the Hypothalamus right now and look forward to what the scientists and MD's are researching. There's logic and rationale for this approach.
I'm openly critical of the Chiropractic and Eastern therapies. I didn't have a great experience, and that was with one my town's better respected providers. When these practicioners put out signs that trumpet their ability to rid the body of migraine and headaches, along with everything from anxiety to epilepsy, I think they're stepping into water a little too deep for their swimming ability.
That's my opinion. You have yours. I'm glad you feel acupuncture helped. I've skipped cycles in the past also - and it was great and I spent a lot of time trying to figure out what it was that might have led to the extended break. Beyond sunspots I pretty much arrived at simply viewing it as a break and I was glad to have it. So, like os many other things, good for you.

I go to chiropractic for sports injuries and sciatica. It is very helpful for these conditions. Alas for my Ch and migraines nothing has worked well. I also tried crainiotherapy and aside from being very relaxing, no relief. Since these modalities are very relaxing I can see if the trigger for the headaches are stress they may work. But unfortunately there are deeper physical problems in most people with CH and/or migraines. People have found out what we knew all along. Stress does not usually cause or trigger these things. These things are neurological events and definitely need more research. I also tried acupuncture and nothing.
My conclusion . If you are having symptoms of CH from stress or misaligned spine, these things could help. If like most of us the CH is caused by a problem in our circadian rhythm and hypothalmus you have a horse of a different color. And there are too many people even in the alternative medicine field who play on the all natural thing and doctors are vultures and we are the only ones who care and who are in the know shit and just fleece folk out their money same way allopaths do.
BTW my chiro who is also a kiniseologist said he did not think chiro could help my ch, migraines or thyroid problems. He tends to be honest and stick to what he knows.

I've had accupuncture for CH, and it didn't help them at all. I've had CST in conjunction with massages, and it feels wonderful. I wasn't getting massages for CH, and not surprisingly, it didn't help with it at all. The massages and CST were still great.

I start this Therapy this friday, in addition to regular soft tissue massages. The insurance company pays for it, it costs me literally $10, so even if it totally doesn't work, who gives a damn. 
It was explained to me today as a technique that would manipulate different fluids in my head, and that it was commonly used for headache patients. And warned me that generally they would see headaches get worse at first, and then begin to see a reduction of number and intensity.
I'm 22, and I'm so open to everything, I'm young I'm strong anything other than drugs, that make you feel like crap (Imitrex), make you look like your dying (Oxygen), or make you gain weight, feel tired, and totally kill your ability to pleasure your girlfriend are all options in my book (Toprol XL).

LOL - you should get the Darth Vader Power Oxygen mask! Or the Neil Shephard Astronaut Hero Oxygen mask. Bet you would make people jealous if you wore an astronaut suit.
Any other fashion/fantasy Oxygen masks that won't make you look "like you are dying" ??
