Cranial Rhythmic Impulse is a palpable, rhythmic physiological motion interpreted within the craniosacral therapy framework as a subtle fluctuation in cerebrospinal fluid pressure and related tissue movement, distinct from cardiac or respiratory rhythms, originating in the central nervous system and propagating along the craniosacral axis.
