Developed from Experience for Enhanced Patient Relief
The CranioCradle® was designed and developed by Barb Richmond, CEO of Kiss Life LLC, using the knowledge and experience she gained from over 20 years working in the healthcare field. The CranioCradle® was tested and fine-tuned by a collaborative team of highly experienced hands-on therapists.
Made with Specialists in Mind
The CranioCradle is an easy-to-use therapeutic tool that gently relaxes tense tired muscles and relieves nagging aches, discomfort, and fatigue. It was developed from a deep appreciation for the benefits of therapies that nurture the body’s ability to self-correct when given the right opportunity. They include osteopathy, massage therapy, craniosacral therapy, and a spectrum of other powerful light-touch modalities.
Relax
Tense, tired muscles
Relieve
Anxiety, tension, & stress
Restore
The body
Retreat
From stiffness, soreness, & discomfort
Encourage patients’ joints to decompress and cramped, tense muscles to gently release with the CranioCradle®. With its craniosacral therapy applications, the CranioCradle creates a positive effect on the central nervous system while alleviating stress, tension, and anxiety. Its design and applications are based on the hands-on modalities of osteopathy, massage, and CranioSacral Therapy. Plus, it feels and functions like skilled therapeutic hands underneath the body for enhanced, added support during patient treatments.
In Office
The CranioCradle is specifically designed to aid in the alignment of the neck, help restore range of motion (ROM), and support the natural curve of the cervical spine, which helps with forward head posture, forward shoulders, headaches, and TMJ. Using the CranioCradle during patient adjustments also helps improve mobility of the thoracic spine, which in turn helps the neck, shoulders, and lower back.
At Home
The CranioCradle also makes the perfect retail option for at-home care! Offer patients the ability to help with shoulder impingement and other issues in between visits, providing them with additional care and you with new revenue.

What Experts Are Saying
“I have been using the CranioCradle with my patients for a couple of months. It is very useful during Osteopathic Manipulative Treatments, because it serves as an additional fulcrum around which to treat. I use it with patients for a few minutes before I treat them, to loosen up certain areas of restriction. I also love that I can send patients home with the CranioCradle to help treat their specific restrictions in between treatments.”

See It In Action
Check out this video as John Barnes explains the benefits of the CranioCradle.
- For most applications, it is best to begin using the CranioCradle on a soft surface such as a treatment table. For more pressure or for releasing trigger points, try a firmer surface such as the floor.
- Every use of the CranioCradle may be a little different. Select the application that best suits the user’s needs and relax. The CranioCradle will work with the body to ease stress, tension, and discomfort.
- In general, muscular discomfort release, trigger point release, or soft tissue release happens within two to five minutes; however, more time may be required based on need.
- The CranioCradle is made of a specific type of foam that is designed to compress during use and then return to its regular shape within seconds after use.
- It should last for many, many years under proper care.
- Simply use warm water with liquid soap or any sanitizer commonly used in the home or healthcare setting.
- No, it can damage the material it is made of.
- Yes, there are situations where the CranioCradle should be used with caution or avoided altogether. Restrictions include but are not limited to: cranium, face, or spine trauma, brain stem tumor, acute stroke, intracranial bleeding, inflammatory conditions, blood clots, cardiac conditions, pregnancy, carotid stenosis, thrombosis, venous obstructions, and serious circulatory problems.
