Most tension headaches start below the neck
The headaches we see most often are referred — tight upper traps, the small muscles at the base of the skull and a jaw that clenches overnight. Work those and the head pain frequently eases without anyone touching your head hard at all.
Cranial Sacral Therapy at $120 is our gentlest option: light sustained holds at the skull, neck and spine, no deep pressure, no oils, and you stay fully clothed if you prefer. Guests with migraine history usually start here.
A room built for sensitive heads
Tell us when you book and we will keep the lights low, the music down and the scent out of the room. If light or smell triggers you, an unscented session is no trouble at all.
The 30-minute Head Spa Treatment at $75 pairs beautifully with any massage — a warm scalp, neck and shoulder finish that many guests say is the part that actually breaks the headache. Serving Branford, Guilford, Madison, East Haven, North Branford, Short Beach, Stony Creek and New Haven.

Frequently asked questions
Can massage help migraines?
It can help headaches driven by neck, trap and jaw tension. It is not a medical treatment for migraine — many guests use it alongside their doctor's care.
What does cranial sacral therapy cost in Branford, CT?
$120 for one hour at Branford River Spa, 249 East Main Street.
Does cranial sacral use pressure?
No. It is light sustained contact at the skull, neck and spine, and you can stay clothed if that is more comfortable.
Can you keep the room unscented?
Yes. Add a note when you book and we will keep oils, scent, light and sound to a minimum.
What if my headache comes from my shoulders?
Book the 45-minute deep tissue at $100 or Shiatsu at $125 and ask your therapist to focus on the traps and skull base.
What are your hours?
Monday to Thursday 9:30 AM to 7:00 PM, Friday and Saturday 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM. Sunday closed.
