These are lifesavers for sensitive souls. A still point inducer is a simple, comfortable device that you can rest your head on for about 15 minutes (up to 4 times a day). It temporarily stops your cranial sacral rhythm, which allows your system to "reset" itself. This is part of what a cranial sacral therapist does when they work with you.

According to the research of The Cranial Therapy Centre in Canada, when your body enters a still point, your "autonomic nervous system switches polarity from adrenal, or stress drive, and a beta brain wave, into relaxed function, allowing the body to sink deeper and deeper into parasympathetic dominance, and an alpha brain wave. In this state, the body is guided into its self-healing mode, encouraging better digestion, assimilation, elimination, detoxification, and immune function. Still points reduce muscle tension, pain, headaches, hyperactivity, insomnia, and ADD/HD. Stress-related illnesses are helped and degenerative diseases are slowed in their progress. In essence, the still point becomes an autonomic nervous system balancer enabling appropriate responses to stress including needed repair and relaxation." Additionally, meditators report "dynamic, dramatic and deep experiences" using the technique and others have experiences marked reductions in fevers.

According to the Upledger Institute, a still point inducer "enhance[s] the movement of body fluids to improve the efficiency of the immune system and provide natural health benefits; reduce congestion, swelling, headaches, anxiety and overall tension." Research also indicates that it has a calming affect on sympathetic nerve activity and helps with "sleep latency."

My own experience with cranial sacral therapy and a still point inducer has been profound. I am able to release stress, neck and shoulder tension very quickly when lying down to take a still point break. It's a product that I recommend for a sensitive soul's self-care tool kit.
