What Is Cranial Facial Release?

Cranial Facial Release (CFR) is a cutting-edge, endo-nasal “balloon-assisted” cranial adjusting procedure. Unlike medications or surgery, CFR is a natural approach designed to:


  1. Open restricted nasal passageways
  2. Improve cranial bone movement
  3. Enhance cerebrospinal fluid flow
  4. Restore proper breathing patterns
  5. Support neurological and structural balance


This procedure is safe, quick, and effective. For many patients, CFR provides lasting relief when other treatments have failed.

How CFR Works


Your skull is not a single solid bone. It’s made up of 22 separate bones that are designed to move every time you breathe. However, factors like:


  • Head trauma
  • Birth trauma
  • TMJ disorder or jaw clenching
  • Chronic sinus infections
  • Structural imbalances


…can cause cranial fixations that restrict normal movement. These restrictions often lead to ongoing respiratory, neurological, and pain-related conditions.


CFR gently addresses these restrictions by inserting a small balloon into the nasal cavity and quickly inflating it. The process takes only 2–3 seconds, feels similar to water rushing into your nose at a pool, and is typically performed over 4 sessions in 7–10 days.
