Hi,

I don't know what the sacrum would have to do with this. I am fairly
sure that I got the deviation in my septum when I fell and hit the
corner of my mouth on the left side on the corner of a wooden coffee
table at age 4.

I haven't had any craniosacral training, but I have had about 5 or 6
sessions of cranioscaacral with about 3 different people. Would
taking the training help give me insight into my own problem? I have
been thinking about taking the training next month, in Charlotte, NC.
