This is the sensation of movement without resistance. Observing the effects of Cranial Integration on athletic performance, it is apparent that clearing cranial distorsion patterns clears out mental and physical resistance, clears out static in the nervous system. Runners run faster and tire less easily. Cyclists achieve better event times, and experience greater endurance. Swimmers see their event times decrease, even the same day of treatment.
All athletes experience fewer aches and pains.
All athletes see fewer injuries and experience faster recovery from injury. All athletes see their training recovery time decrease, allowing a more rigorous schedule. These principles are equally true of non-athletes, as we all depend on movement in the workplace. Typing, carpentry, surgery, driving, and even simply sitting, standing and walking are learned movements, and encorporate learned distorsions and resistances, which over time insult and damage muscles and other tissues and accumulate to create symptoms of lack of flexibility and pain.
