Once every 4 years, we come together to celebrate everything that makes Upledger CranioSacral Therapy so special. We call it a Symposium, and it’s an event that brings together inspirational speakers, demonstrations & practical workshops, the latest research, and a chance to connect with what’s happening in our global community of Upledger therapists.

Just in case you want some inspiration for things to read over what's left of the summer (or whenever you happen to read this) here are some ideas - relevant to CST but beyond our core texts we know and love).
