As Part of a Holistic Treatment Plan: CST is most effective when integrated with other therapies, such as talk therapy, to address both the psychological and physical aspects of healing.

Before and After Ketamine Sessions: CST can be beneficial both before ketamine sessions to help prepare the body and nervous system, and after sessions to facilitate relaxation and integration.

Promotes Relaxation and Nervous System Regulation: Ketamine can evoke intense emotions and experiences, and CST's gentle touch helps calm the nervous system and reduce anxiety, making it easier to process and integrate these experiences.

Releases Stored Tension and Trauma: CST can help release physical and emotional tension held in the body's tissues, which may be connected to the underlying issues being addressed in ketamine therapy.

Supports Somato-Emotional Release: CST facilitates the release of emotional energy that may be trapped in the body, allowing for a deeper exploration of trauma and emotional blockages that surface during ketamine treatment.

Enhances Body Awareness and Mindfulness: CST encourages a deeper connection to the body's sensations and rhythms, promoting self-awareness and mindfulness, which are crucial for integrating the insights gained during ketamine sessions.

Improves Sleep and Reduces Pain: CST can promote better sleep and reduce chronic pain, both of which can significantly impact the integration process and overall well-being.
