A deep ocean studies
Revised version of a lecture held in 1982 in a basic course of the
Sutherland Cranial Teaching Foundation in Alexandria, Virginia.
To what you have done so far in your practice to connect with what you will
learn during this week, now a huge transition must stattfi ends. Our main
task as a teacher is to help you in this, this bridge to cross as comfortable
as possible. At the same time I have to tell you, however, also point out
that what we are going to do this week, especially hard work.
As a part of the bridge that we use to make this transition, I have listed
on the chalkboard the four basic osteopathic principles that have been
taught you in college:
1.
The body is a unit.
2.
The body possesses self-regulating mechanisms.
3.
Structure and function to each other in a reciprocal
relationship.
4.
A resonable treatment is based on the understanding of
the self-regulating body mechanisms and the reciprocal relationship
between structure and function in the body.
These are basic principles that you already know your entire dental
profession; first you have it belongs in your first year at an osteopathic
college. We all agree that the beautiful statements. But how many of you
realize, while you listen to these allegations and read that we are talking
about a living mechanism? In our education, in which we have only seen
things in a dead, lying on the autopsy table body
behavior, bring most of us feel with that we can do with it what we want.
In the coming work week but we are talking about a living body as a unit,
a vibrant self-regulating mechanism, a living structure and function, which
are in reciprocal relationship with each other, as well as a rating based on
this understanding, lively treatment. These mechanisms have been
revived, they are healthy. That's why we here today
I-17
allow enbaren their own infallible Potency to off - to bring this health pattern
to light.
To operate in this way, we need deep into another sea of
Understanding plunge and allow the physiological function in the patients
to train us in the truest sense of the word. We want to learn about: Where
is this patient's health? How do I get them to light? The body physiology
of the patient instructs us literally. The doctor who lives in my patients has
trained me in the last eight years, and still I'm a student. This is a part of
the transition, we have to accomplish.
We want to learn, these mechanisms, both in us and in our
Patient work, to feel and to be aware of their. Lawful to you during this
week, if you're the patient to feel this mechanism at work, at the same time
trying to feel during the student treated as the same mechanisms working
in you. So you can begin to sense function.
In order to achieve the objectives set out here, you have to go through
three learning steps, the first is the most difficult. First you have to accept
that the anatomic-physiologic function is alive in you and in your patients,
already in motion, available for your findings and use that fact. You have
to accept this fact - close your eyes, exceeds that limit and Hope that there
is still a floor under your feet when you put on the other side of the border.
Suddenly you are of secondary importance in relation to this matter, in
which you are working. The boss is inside. He is both in you and in your
patients. As a practitioner you're going to understand this fact and use.
Second, we need to study the details of the anatomic-physiological
mechanism in living body. We must understand that the living anatomical
and physiological details of the primary respiratory mechanism, the
craniosacral mechanism, no separate functional units, which have to be
studied separately. We add these details add to the anatomy and
physiology that we have learned in school. In my first lesson with Dr.
William Garner Sutherland I told him I had not come to his
Way we work, learn, but to my knowledge of anatomy and physiology to
the craniosacral expanding mechanism through which we had not learned
anything in college. Dr. Sutherland was the one who gave the our
profession, and now we will give it to you further. You are here in order to
continue your studies of the anatomy and physiology of the living body, and
that includes the Primary respiratory mechanism.

Steps:
1.
Say the living mechanism in you and in patients. Life always
tried to express health.
2.
Give yourself to a result of this affirmation. Understand that
what the mechanism tells you is true.
3.
Develop palpation skills. The body is smarter than you, so
learn from him.
The first step is the hardest, but also the essential, in order to understand
and take advantage of living mechanisms of health. Find and learn the
mechanisms of the living function first in yourself; will you lead them to
understand your patients.
The second step is to be an observer of living functions while working.
Give yourself to the patient.
The third step requires of you that you are developing a vibrant
Palpationskunst. Palpation is the tool that uses the handler to read what
the primary doctor is doing in each of us to bring about health from the
inside. Learn the function as to feel inside, not just smaller or larger
movements.
Did you think you come in this course, to gather information? Palpation
skills to develop? To be knowledgeable in terms of services to your patients
with their problems?
No, you got to be the work that you're going to understand and use in
your service to the patient.
I-25
gene, as one would even solve this situation. Your they want to support it,
herauszufi ends that their own strength is good, no matter how limited they
may seem. In this way, the volunteers support the caller is to use their own
resources and express their feelings in a more constructive manner.
Finally, teaches the "Help" method that it is good, empathize and clarify that
it's important to you, what happens to the person seeking help. The contact
and the person himself are important to you.
These are the principles and skills that make this "help" method so
effective. This type of verbal contact requires an education, but the basic
principles are easy to learn and we can all apply in our lives.
As I now speak so here I would like that you listen to what's going on in
your head, if anyone asks for help. An important point to pay attention to
this, is the need, your own feelings about the person with whom you are
talking to know exactly these people really as to who he is, to accept someone who deserves respect just as itself. Listen to him and answers,
without judging. People feel much freer in the presence of other people,
which they accepted as silent as they are. It is your task to just stay relaxed,
I-29
I recognize that the patient has the same mechanism as me. Only then, I
ask the patient in the treatment room. Then I do what has to be always
done. I work here, without thinking of what I hope to achieve for that patient
e. I just start to work.
This small, coming out of my heart greeting, which I acknowledge my
own silence in patients is a silent acknowledgment that she is alive. An
invisible acknowledging or realizing that. Even if you treat 45 patients in one
day, you can take you time for this very moment, in order to connect to a
point of stillness within yourself, and then with the same point in the patient.
Because then - no matter how you work with the individual patient - it
happens 45 times a day that you have recognized in you and in the patient
something that will silence ttzen the treatment program Unters. What is
this something, I do not know, and that's not even important. It's simply,
stand out for identifi with a mechanism that exists in each of us, and to use
one's.
This silence is Will guide you in terms of what specific at this
Day to do. And I am convinced that the patient it does not have to
consciously participate. I treat many patients who do not have the slightest
idea what I'm doing, and it still like it because they feel that something is
happening in them. It feels to them as if finally a treater has recognized
some of them and try to help them. Sometimes they suspect that I'm
doing anything at all, but in the end they know that I'm doing something,
because their clinical picture changes.
So this contact is a silent confirmation, and it also gives me a moment of
rest between patients. If you have a case that really takes along to you and some do - you do not want all this garbage to take to the next patient.
If it is possible to take you then a little more time for this process. Take a
three-quarter minute to you sit down somewhere and let it just herausfl ow
from you, it flushes out. Ye have forgotten then when they leave the
treatment room, you know not even the name. Then you let be quite calm
and asks the next patient to come into the room. Even if it is not a difficult
case, you can watch if the patient is to make aware quietly, that something
has happened, while he was in the treatment room. You must not say a
word about it. This is simply a silent exchange between my silence and the
silence of the patient - the name does not matter, techniques do not matter,
not I-31
Chapter 1-6 Relax, there's no
hurry
The mechanism has no problems
Revised version of a lecture held in 1986 as part of a
basic course of the Sutherland Cranial Teaching
Foundation in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Signposts, which we can follow. However, let us for a moment this resolute
way of thinking in 1900 with today's science compare. I recently the recently
published article by a famous science moth read, in which he tried and
spiritual science Liche truths together. His conclusion is that science and
spirituality are not incompatible, but that the great truths of these two areas
are, so to speak, more or less parallel. In other words, both are moving
towards that unknown understanding that is necessary for the well-known
understanding. I'm not really agree with this idea. How can you conclude
that this is a science Liche truth and the other a spiritual truth? Because I
trust more a science ler which his science comprehensive understanding
comes through a Spiritual Guidance and not by attempting to build a
separate super-structure.
I like the idea of a biologist and science Jewellers, who made this remark in a
discussion about the phenomena of life: "It is a fact that the life science s are not only
much more complicated than the science s, but also a much larger symbol space have;
and they go further in the exploration of the universe of science as the
Science s. While you are using all natural science data and your
explanation basics, then go far beyond that and include an even greater
amount of data and additional explanation foundations that offer no less,
but in a sense, even more scientific probability. The point here is that all
known material processes and explanatory principles on living
Organisms en zutreff, only a limited number but not living systems. "When
osteopathic concept, and this includes the cranial area, is about a living
system. Dr. Sutherland said, "The cranial work is not a special, separate
from the science of osteopathy area. The truth is a lot of I-39
per takes in response to its internal and external environment to its
voluntary and involuntary actions. And with these factors we can learn to
feel through the use of our thinking, feeling, seeing, knowing fingers.
If we put our hands on a patient who is in good health, we feel a general
sense of well exploitation ends. We feel the respiratory cycle of his
breathing. We feel the flexion and extension of his running in the midline
structures in their function. We feel the alternating external and internal
rotation of its bilateral structures in their function. We feel any voluntary
movements this person and many involuntary movements of various organ
systems within the body. If our hands are on his head, we can feel the
movements of the cranial mechanism tion joint mechanism, the vast
movements of the reciprocal tension membrane and the fluctuation of the
cerebrospinal fluid as an integrated radio. Throughout the body is
something tangible that today in the
Anatomy and physiology texts is normally not mentioned: a general
Uten Tidenbewegung the entire body, a Hereinfl and out Ebben. It is as if
the whole, acting as a unit body reacts to a force similar to that which moves
the tides of the ocean. It is a rhythmic movement within all Krperfl uids.
She's on her quiet way Krft strength than any other physiological function
within the physical mechanism, important and powerful than the breathing
If you have reached good results in someone who already had various
other treatments behind her, including sometimes osteopathy using
manipulation, then you will of this patient and this patient like to send his or
her friends. It is interesting to see how these potential patients are prepared
for their services. The new patient is said: " If you go to my osteopath, was
not surprised about his type of treatment. You'll think he does nothing, but
it will you be better off if he's done with the treatment; and when he says he
wants to see you again, stick with it, and it will ensure that you're well again.
" I have a very fine gentleman as a patient who has already sent me a lot
of other patients, and which says he, " go to my osteopath with the magic
hands. I do not know how he does it, but he can help you. "
Your patients come back and send their friends because they achieve
good results in case of problems that could be solved either by medicine,
physiotherapy or some other form of examination or testing. Then, when
further develop your skills, you will get more and more complex cases;
People who have been everywhere and still need help for your
problems.And just when you think that this is now the most difficult case at
all, comes a new patient who can appear just before lying all cases. If you,
as the main force for diagnosis and treatment uses the infallible Potency,
the complex cases attracts as flowers attract bees. That is the reason,
why this kind of work is always interesting.There is always something new
to learn from the physiological body of the patient. Growing understanding
- that is what the clinician needs to be able to help the patient.
" You come back to: cause , "said Dr. Sutherland. " If you understand the
mechanism, the technique is simple. " Think for a moment about what these
two statements mean for osteopaths. In this world of consequences pile up
in the problem cases that come to us in the practice, consequences to follow
until these consequences totally drown out the causal factor, ie the original
injury or illness that caused the syndrome. Now I-47
Skepticism be observed in one patient and creates in this type of work an
interesting challenge.
In addition, the practitioner should have an objective and a subjective
consciousness as well as a thinking, seeing sentient, knowing sense of
touch feature. The following concise set of Dr. Sutherland summarizes all
these qualifiers cations together: " If you understand the mechanism, the
technique is simple. " And it's easy. This was and is the science of
osteopathy as Dr. Still, Dr. Sutherland, and many other leading capacities
have formulated and practiced in our profession. Today we are concerned
with the traditional by Dr. Sutherland truths and their demonstration.
Now we must consider what all this means for us and for our practical
work now and in the future. We need every service out there today within
our highly qualifi ed profession. We need our hospitals, our surgeons,
internists, pediatricians, gynecologists, psychiatrists and all other
departments. Each area of modern medicine is important for the routine
care of our patients. There are, however, not only for all these areas space,
but also for somewhat beyond Going. We need at least 2,000 women and
men who take the time to learn the necessary material in order to use the
truths of Still and Sutherland in their daily practice. They told me that not
every practitioner is able to acquire these specific skills that you have to pay
to be particularly gifted. This opinion I am not. I think the practitioner needs
perseverance, time, and has to spend a lot of work to learn this skill and
science. Who is willing, time and effort into the basic requirement " be still
and know "investing, which can bring a closer to the Creator as a pure
substance royal breathing, is on this path inevitably an advocate and
practical user of the principles given to us by Dr. AT Still and Dr. WG
Sutherland were mediated. Off en said I would like to see how 2,000 men
and women to exercise this kind of osteopathy because those osteopaths
will be many thousands of patients to services, which you have said
elsewhere: " We have done for you everything is possible. You will have to
learn to live with this problem. " A high percentage of these numerous
people can be led to a much higher level of health but, as is available in
their present condition are available. Such patients, which can help me at
heart. So you get stuck, you need the help of osteopaths with
Skills in the said areas. At present there are in America but only I-49
sent me many years ago in response to a letter in which I referred to certain
aspects of osteopathy in the cranial region. However, his response includes
the entire body physiology in the science of osteopathy. I quote him
verbatim:
" I am closer than my breath the creator of the cranial mechanism ... The patient closer
is the creator of his or her cranial mechanism ... 7 My thinking, sentient, seeing, knowing
fingers out on smart way of Magisterial mechanic who created this mechanism , It does
not matter how you interpret, as long as you mentally contact with the overhead line has
like a streetcar. "
Let me repeat that: ' It does not matter how you interpret, as long as you mentally
contact with the overhead line has like a streetcar . "

the entire body physiology in the science of osteopathy. I quote him
verbatim:
" I am closer than my breath the creator of the cranial mechanism ... The patient closer
is the creator of his or her cranial mechanism ... 7 My thinking, sentient, seeing, knowing
fingers out on smart way of Magisterial mechanic who created this mechanism , It does
not matter how you interpret, as long as you mentally contact with the overhead line has
like a streetcar. "
Let me repeat that: ' It does not matter how you interpret, as long as you mentally
contact with the overhead line has like a streetcar . "

Understanding the mechanism
Parts enbaren this mechanism, this involuntary movement off. But the
neurocranial and the sacred activity axis, its physiological function is when
you want to say so, more or less, the drive shaft of the system that allows
all the wheels and hoists as well as everything that comes so directly from
the factory, to do their work be brought - flexion / external rotation and
extension / internal rotation. So one can understand the neurokranialen
and sacral mechanism under any circumstances as a separated from the
whole body physiology unit. Every time we put our hands to a patient, we
are dealing with the largest and most important involuntary system in the
human body. Every time we touch these patients, no matter whether we
are here referring to a tiny finger joint or a whole leg, we must attune
ourselves to these involuntary, physiological mechanism.
Arbitrary mechanisms correspond all that the decisions precipitating
fraction of our brain decides to do with this involuntary thing. I decide to go
myself to stand or sit; I decide to persuade me to eat and think (or think
that I think); I can a million decisions taken en. I decide to have thoughts
or emotions - everything is arbitrary. These are activities that we can use
in an intelligent way, by trying to offend nor to let them starve or to take on
excessive manner. We just use the normal daily lives, and once we aufh
ren to use them, they fall easily back to where they came from, and our
involuntary mechanism continues to support us until we give the instruction
again, that the arbitrary something else to do. It is the arbitrary page in life
that puts us in difficult situations, not involuntary.
I-57
among leading levels. That's the change that speaks of the Eiseley, the
infinite variety of patterns, from a functional state to another, in the
involuntary mechanism by which it works. As long as it takes. This is the
time, the needs change. Our job as a therapist is to us silently tune from
the inside out in order to understand this event. Our understanding arises
out of something that we feel, though can not explain. What
we because it is perceptible to us, feel, is a consequence. And yet we can
observe that something is actually happening in this nanosecond. We can
observe what pattern was previously there and that thereafter, and because we have studied the details of the physiological movement of any
part of this involuntary mechanism not only in the craniosacral axis, but in
the whole system - with our intelligent comprehension able to make this
available for clinical purposes.
A universal design
There are in this craniosacral mechanism and throughout the anatomy and
physiology of the entire body and the aspect of universality. Approximately
ten thousand generations or three million years did it take to make the
human body to what it is today. Basically, it is designed so that it functions
as a voluntary and involuntary mechanism. The only reason why we are
sitting here today is that we are the product of x people generations that
have managed to survive. Therefore, the mechanisms are in us all those
that have been determined by nature to survive.
In other words: The fundamental guiding principle in the healing arts (I
have deliberately not told "the osteopathic profession," because we are
talking about something that should be understood that members of all
healing arts), the fundamental idea is so that the body from head to at the
feet is a wonderful mechanism and, although was composed, designed
from many parts as a comprehensive unit, as a universal functional unit.
The more clearly we understand how he as a holistic mechanism works in
ourselves - and I mean both the voluntary and involuntary part -, the more
precise can be our diagnosis and more capable certainly our treatment.
Yesterday there was talk in the department about the architectural
principles of I-59
Craniosacral mechanism has principles that work universally in all of us
and then ends its individual expression in the personality, to which they
belong, fi.
That we while studying in these courses do not look for pathologies but
to the basics, which can function this mechanism, expands our horizons
considerably. Not to study the so-called Normal, so here you are, but to
understand the principles that belong to the so-called normal at the
individual person with whom you were working.
DNA patterns
If you could examine the structure of an involuntary people without any
interference of arbitrary would you fi nd that there is an individual pattern of
health for every human being in this world. Each anatomical-physiological,
involuntary mechanism follows from the top of the head to the feet a pattern
that inoculated him, for him geschaff en was of the DNS, which was at the
time of conception there and around which every man his pattern of health
builds. He received energy to build this pattern. It takes nine months to be
born, and 90 years in order to tear oneself away; But all this time on the
involuntary structure is continuously built up cell by cell again, with only the
DNA patterns of this particular body creates the internal mechanism that
makes it into a functioning system involuntary.
If you are with your hands on these patients einstimmst you with the aim
of problems ausfi constantly to make, then fi du nd also problems caused
by arbitrary geschaff enes stress, disease or trauma - that is, by something
that carried the patient from the outside inwards has. But if you're able,
through what has been saddled with this thing, wade and your focus judge
on the whole of involuntary pattern you call instead the most energy in the
world - the DNS and its pattern or blueprint - brought that saying: "That is
what I want to be," This pattern is individually designed for this soul, this
one individual..
So if I do this cranial mechanism, or whatever I'm trying to deal with,
touch, while the I focus my consciousness on
MAKE mechanism of this patient, I try to read under the I-61

Movement - the key to diagnosis and treatment
Paper presented at a conference of the Cranial Academy, which took
place in 1979 with support of the Sutherland Cranial Teaching
Foundation.
Movement is life. Movement is a manifestation of life. The miracle of life
is expressed in movement, the flow of electrons around a nucleus around,
call to the living creatures, Anzen we viruses, bacteria, fungi, plowing
animals and mankind. This life can be ends in the sea fi, on land and in the
air - perhaps even in space. Mankind has lived in all these environments
or adapted in order to be able to live there. Webster defi ned movement
as:
"The act or process of moving itself; the local change of a body from one place to
another; the action to move his body or a body part; in mechanics: a combination of
moving parts; Mechanism. "9
At Dorland total 30 Defi nition of movement include the following: 1. The
process of self-moving. 2. Active activity: a caused by the own muscle
movement. 3. Automatic movement: a movement which has its origin in
the body, but is not triggered deliberately. 4. Transferred movement: a force
supplemented by the many variables that ego, mind and emotions can
contribute with its forms of movement. These are no cause-effect
relationships. Here it comes, whether it is the physician or the patient to an
undivided individual in an existing externally and internally interrelated with
its own individual environment.
I-65
Can be read out of the functional processes of the body physiology The
now following criteria for the care provider and patient. The physiology of
our nameless body has four main movement patterns, the five senses,
which can be used to his conscious perception for the diagnosis of the
doctor in addition, and five basic principles of potential treatment. The four
main patterns of movement are:
1.
The neuromuscular movements of the musculoskeletal
system; it could also be as arbitrary mechanism of physiological
function sequences indicate in the body.
2.
The secondary ribs and breathing mechanisms that move all
body tissues during breathing cycles.
3.
The inherent rhythmic motile and mobile, involuntary
craniosacral fluctuation of the cerebrospinal fluid and the entire
lymphatic system with a cycle speed of 10 to 14 times per minute in
a healthy state. Dr. William G. Sutherland has described this
perfectly rhythmic motion as a kind Tidenphnomen. This means
that over a period of ten minutes the whole body physiology each
about 100 times passes through a cycle of movement of flexion with
external rotation and extension with internal rotation. This is a
powerful tool for diagnosis and Th erapie.
4.
A large tidenartige movement that approximately 6 times
stattfi friend over a period of nine minutes a fl uktuierender
mechanism needs for each rhythmic cycle about one and a half
minutes. I could watch this great Tide in my patients for the first time
ten years ago and I have no idea what their origin or to their very
nature. It is one
Tide, the massive feels like having a gradually swelling expansion of the
whole body physiology and a gradually rcklufi gene movement,
followed by the next, gradually becoming a massive expansion in a
rhythmically balanced exchange within the whole body physiology. I have
this movement simultaneously counted in two patients, and it was
common to both, but in each case on an individual way. This too is a
powerful therapeutic tool, as we'll discuss later.
The full resources of the body physiology, including the four main
movement patterns, answer and reflect the creative tensions of normal
functional processes within the involuntary articularly-membranous
mechanisms of the primary respiratory mechanism and the fascialligamentous voluntary and involuntary linkages of the rest of the body
physiology. This I-67
the living body of the patient carries tools in itself, with which
you promote the existing in patient self-healing principles and may
induce them to work.
10 Note. d. Edit .: Here Becker refers to the famous still-quote "The health
of fi nding should be the concern of a doctor. Anyone can fi nd the
disease "[From:. Still AT:
The great Still Compendium. 2. A., Volume II: The philosophy of
osteopathy, JOLANDOS,
2005, pp II-16th]
I-73
The quote of Dr. Still emphasized the normalcy of health in the living
human body. This main focus on health runs through all Still'schen font en.
The second lesson that we can learn from this quotation is the fact that the
presence of any disease or of trauma in the body physiology is merely a
consequence, a departure from the norm in terms of position and function
in the areas where the disease or trauma to fi nd is.
Health is a living principle in the living body, and they can not be defi ne.
Cause and effect is a principle of body physiology that can be defi ned in
the presence of disease and / or trauma.
For example: A patient comes with a severely sprained ankle, with
possibly torn ligaments. The ankle shows symptoms and dysfunction; but
these are only consequences, not the cause of the restriction. Perhaps the
patient has tried to catch with an outstretched hand or with both hands while
he umknickte and fi el. In all kinds of places in his body normality may have
been disturbed, and each of these places controls as a cause to the
eventual development the sprained ankle in. There may an abnormal
rotation at the knee or at the hip give e the right or left leg, a dysfunction
pattern in psoas or ligamentous joint Train in the arm and hand, and indeed
where they are pitched when falling on the floor. The accumulated results
of this single cause areas add up and be the cause of the ankle injury. Each
of these areas must be carried out and evaluated a corrective treatment so
that the healthy functioning of both the causal areas as well as in the ankle
is restored. With the return to normality can be seen again at the ankle
health and even torn ligaments heal better.
Another example of a deviation from the health and as well as the ankle
injury is merely a consequence disease. You can take many forms: There
are chronic problems such as rheumatoid arthritis, which lasts for years, or
relatively acute diseases such as lobar pneumonia. The - in the latter case
- diseased lung is not the cause of anything. There are a number of effects
that occur in a specifi c pattern and cause the deviation from normality. The
health returns to the lungs if all these consequences are resolved. To
perform a corrective evaluation and treatment that addresses the root
cause, you have to work on the areas of the body physiology, who allows
the lungs, their opposition to I-75
Dr. Stills work began at an hour when he turned his back on the ineff
ective health system of his time. He describes his discovery of the science
of osteopathy on June 22, 1874 as follows:
"22 years ago I shot hit not into the heart but into the dome of the mind.
This dome was then in a poor state, to be pierced by an arrow with the
principles of philosophy. ... Some of the time I retired to think about this
event, which I realized thanks to the force of closing that the word means
god perfection in all things and in all places. At this point I began with the
microscope of the mind to consider carefully the assumption was often
made in our presence that the divine perfection can be seen in his works.
"12
Dr. Still took it upon himself to work with all the hidden factors that belong
to the basics of the science of osteopathy, to examine them, to experiment
with them, to study them, to test, to rethink and to feel. It was a sudden
break out for a man, this change from "elimination of pain and suffering"
toward "restoring health from the inside."
There are many facets of knowledge and understanding that can be
learned from the living body physiology of the patient. And there are many
lively diagnostic and treatment skills that can be utilized in the development
of a perceptual coordination of the living practitioner in its work with the
living patient to achieve a correction towards health.
The emphasis on the word is intentionally alive. To Dr. Stills discovery
belongs his knowledge that the human body is a machine, which is driven
by the invisible force called life.It is the vitality of the human body, which
makes him react to tests, techniques and tools of medical science - to exact
from the technologically more advanced computed tomography and
magnetic resonance tomography on vaccinations, which have wiped out
some of the most dangerous diseases of mankind, through acting
antibiotics or other drugs and sophisticated heart surgery, etc. In this
direction there was in the past six to ten years more progress than in the
fifty years before. Many thousands of lives have been saved thanks to these
advances.

Seres service explained. Before his discovery, Dr. Still was working for
humanity as a doctor " particularly through the elimination of pain and
suffering "from the outside in, with the medical art and science of his time.
He was, as it should be a philanthropist, dissatisfied with his results,
searching for answers and ways to improve. At the time of his discovery
"something happened", an invisible factor, a step into the unknown. The
quality of his life as a doctor was changed, transformed. Or you could use
the word "transmutation" in order to explain what happened? As a result of
this "silent" action he became a philanthropist, whose primary interest was
the fact of humanity through the " restoration of health from the inside out
to serve. " He now understood the meaning and experience of the "vitality"
of his own nature and the same "vitality" in his patients as a unity of life. He
took this quality of "aliveness" that was given to him on without question;
The knowledge served him in his daily practice as a doctor, engineer and
philanthropist.
What happened at the time of its discovery, is something that has already
happened to hundreds of times people in the most diverse areas. It is part
of a learning process with such people and autodidacts who are looking for
a heartfelt response to their specifi c questions. It is precisely then,
if it is to happen, and not by intention.
Dr. Still gave the world the science of osteopathy and two clear, basic
principles that can be used to serve the needs of mankind: first, the principle
of health in the body physiology, which can be regarded as a law per se,
and Second, the principle of cause and
Effect that can be used in treating disease and / or trauma in the body
physiology, wherein each such problem is merely a consequence that can
be diagnosed and treated by causal areas to restore the processes of
health. Both principles may be used by clinicians living in his work with a
living patient.
The following statement by Dr. Still gives us an insight into his profound
knowledge and the quality of his experience:
"I hope e all those who read this to me, my full conviction will perceive that
the mind of God in nature its planning ability - unless plans are needed and has demonstrated the creators ung self-organizing laws no pattern for
the myriad of life forms ; he did well with the equipment and I-79
Chapter 2-4
Still points
Revised version of a discussion, in 1986 during an
internal training of the Sutherland Cranial Teaching
Foundation in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, took place.
You have asked the question: What happens when the Still Point? That's a
good question, and I'll try anything to say about it - but it's not the answer,
because there is no answer to the question, what happens when a still point.
You walk through a still point by changing the relative function of a lever
on a fulcrum. You created st a complete exchange between the two ends
of the lever.
Now, I want you to not confuse, but I've given up trying to use the Still
Point; he is not a target of the treatment. I've even given up trying to look
for it. I Found A Million Still points - before, during, after ... and finally I gave
up. I take just as much as possible out of the way, as far as it is necessary
so that something can be done.
A still point is a physiological balancing act, the body goes through the
physiology of each patient. He may at any time, any place, to happen in
some way. Probably it comes spontaneously when the patient sleeps well
at night or in similar situations. The Still Point is the body's attempt to make
himself free, back into a fully motile mechanism. In treatment it is an
observable event that the practitioner can recognize as something that a
friend stattfi in the body physiology, which he does not voluntarily sought or
tries to evaluate. It is an anatomical-physiological change that brings about
the body, and I as a doctor had nothing to do with it. I do not even recognize
the Still Point. The fact that he stattfi friend, points out that the body
physiology decides to use it.
I am here simply an observer and not a man who pursues an aim.
Often Still Points are going to happen in front of you, but you can also
hufi g the
Making experience that you nd stattfi at some distance. You are about to
quietly work on a field in a patient, listen, and suddenly you realize that
something is happening somewhere else. Well, it has gone through a Still

Sit with your mechanism
Revised version of lectures around the course as part of
a G 1976
Sutherland Cranial Teaching Foundation was held in Milwaukee,

The experience of the inner Sprens
In this course, we started with the bones of the cranium on the outside, then
inside gone through the reciprocal tension membrane, the rolling and
unrolling of the central nervous system have to taken and a fluid Drive the
cerebrospinal fluid, introduced into the neurokranialen mechanism. We
have seen that this mechanism has the capacity to do certain things and
certain patterns to be created en - twist, SidebendingRotation, vertical and
lateral shear and compression muster14. We have found that it can have
certain membranous joint dysfunctions and that he has a lot of joints. And
today we have drangehngt a detailed face.

look to yourselves. We want to reverse the process of training program this
So sit down now in your chair, with your feet on the floor, with your spine

and contracts rhythmically. This is an inner feeling - try to feel himself a

About the penetration of various substances in the nerve trunk and its
movement along the nerve."
In his chapter on "rheumatism" Speransky describes a method, the liquor to "pump":
"The pump was done by means of a lumbar puncture, performed on the seated patient.
We used a 10.0-CC> Record <-needle. The retraction and re-injecting the liquid was
between 8 and
Repeated 40 times. Last time, the liquid was removed. The whole thing
must go neither too slow nor too fast in front of him. A quick extraction,
particularly in the second part of the puncture, always brings with it a
headache which last until the evening, and sometimes even the next day.
In a few cases, there was vomiting. "
This clumsy mechanical pumps of Liquor within the dural sheath and the
Subarachnoidalrume has been applied in a number of neurodystrophen
processes or diseases. The methods used were to say the least
dangerous. Spreranskys work was also then very controversial in his time
and.
Characteristically is his chapter 21 introductory statement: "This book
can not provide a final" It may in fact, no other conclusions, except the
realization that the knowledge in the area of the cerebrospinal fluid is highly
complex.. The Liquor exchanged ions, metabolites, and trophic factors with
the choroid plexi, with the nerve cells of the central, peripheral and
autonomic nervous system, the pituitary-hypothalamic axis, with the pineal
gland and the lymphatic system. In addition, the thin Liquorfi lm used in the
Subarachnoidalrumen together with the Cisternas as waterbed to protect
the brain and spinal cord.
Philosophical considerations
To take advantage of the cerebrospinal fluid in a diagnostic and treatment
plan, it takes more than a synthesis of anatomic and physiological details
and more than one guided by laboratory testing study of cerebrospinal fluid
characteristics in health, trauma or disease. To experience this vibrant I93
I am talking about the following: If I work as doctor with the living
fluctuation patterns of the cerebrospinal fluid in patients, I'm involved in this
fluctuation pattern. I have participated in the experience of what I observe
by palpation with sensory input, and what changed as a result of the applied
in the form of a motor output palpatory skills within the pattern. The only to
be considered the end of reality is constant change - change that friend
stattfi while I watch the pattern change that friend stattfi while applied
palpatorisches Can pattern adorns modifi, and change that in the
anatomical-physiological structure of the patient takes place when
continuing the work happened on this day after my diagnosis and treatment
program.
It is extremely important that the practitioner takes on his palpating the
functioning of the cerebrospinal fluid, the role of stakeholders.
I like to be the idea, party rather than an outside observer, when it is
necessary to take care of a problem in the patient's body - like this now a
dysfunction of the musculoskeletal system, a fascial dysfunction pattern or
an interconnected with the primary respiratory mechanism. I have a feeling
that I directly experienced the changes that stattfi ends in patients at
diagnosis as in the treatment and so in relation to the type of dysfunction
get a better diagnostic insight. I can therefore Ussen influenced food better
at the potential that day corrections and the treatment results. I fi nd it
necessary to accept the idea that I'm a party, and maintain this awareness
during my diagnostic and therapeutic review. Because as a participant to
reach to what I experience, as well as in the treatment results a much
deeper quality than in the role of an outsider observer.
If we want to take advantage of the sensory and motor skills of our
consciousness while working with the natural resources in the body,
including the cerebrospinal fluid heard we need to better understand the
mechanisms at issue here, first of three concept E - self-organization, staff
turnover and transmutation - defi ne and two principles - the breath of life
and the breathing air - explain.
Self-organization: the innate human ability to live physically, mentally,
emotionally and philosophically express.
Everyone has two mechanisms that interact lifetime: an arbitrary ability
to work, play and rest, and a complex UNI 95
The detectable by palpation, basic rhythmic fluctuation pattern of the
CSF represent longitudinal, lateral and alternating spiral pattern. There are
probably many other patterns or combinations of patterns that are very
small and therefore not so easy to notice. A specifi Scheres rhythmic
fluctuation pattern of cerebrospinal fluid can be palpated, by directing the
cerebrospinal fluid along a maximum diagonal direction in any part of the
body.
Generally it is believed that the turnover rate of the cerebrospinal fluid is
in a healthy state at 10 to 14 times per minute. However, you can the
various states dysfunction in individuals according to
vary and so may be very slow in chronic diseases, increases with fever,
however.
More important than its speed but is the quality of the fluctuation pattern.
If the state is healthy, you can feel the palpating a full amplitude, vitality and
lively dynamics. Is contrast against rheumatoid arthritis, fi nds due to stasis
in connective tissue and lymph system, a thin, watered-down, low
amplitude, and after a meningitis or encephalitis empfi nds them as sluggish
Patients had to spend a lot of persuasion, to keep them as long at the bar
until the desired results were achieved.
A comparable number of cases with rheumatoid arthritis responded
similarly positive and gained their inherent vitality. Although the aff enes
joints were still limited, but they hurt a lot less. Also, the treatment dragged
on for six to nine months. Two of the patients did not respond as strongly,
but even they felt an improvement. As with the previously described case
of the 55s it took with them at the beginning of treatment until there ceased
breastfeeding spot. This was, however, from week to week better and they
responded to the rhythmically balanced exchange in their clogged s tissue.
In many cases, were terminally ill cancer patients, some for example with
inoperable brain tumors, in recent weeks and months to live relatively painfree and tolerable before her death.
This controlling the fluctuations of cerebrospinal fluid by putting them
down brings to their short rhythmic period, I applied to a wide variety of
ways and in hundreds of cases, to satisfy the most diverse requirements. I
do not use that in every patient who comes to my office, but whenever it is
aware that it is appropriate. It always corresponds to the respective
challenge, though usually with much less dramatic effects as in the cases
described. However, by palpation and Applied palpation skills I erspre that
was achieved, what was necessary in this day of treatment.
The principle of life breath: Dr. According to Sutherland, the potency of
the cerebrospinal fluid breathing mechanism can be regarded as a
fundamental principle in the operation of the primary. He described it as a
breath of life, as an invisible element and gave her another name, our
Drawing attention to their importance for the functioning of the
cerebrospinal fluid. Dr. Sutherland spent a lot of years trying to
understand all the elements and components of the craniosacral
mechanism: the cranial
Linkages and the sacrum, the reciprocal tension membrane, the motility of
the central nervous system and the fluctuation of the cerebrospinal fluid.
He worked all to yourself and experimented with compressed bandages on

logical circulatory and rhythmic functional systems that we use for our
Need presence on this earth. In order to manifest ourselves as an

are (even if we think it's the most important thing), but the product of our
entire environment, and must be in a rhythmically balanced exchange with
that environment. These are some of the elements that are necessary for
an integrated function of the self-organization of human life in order to
maintain health and to adapt to disease or trauma.
As Handler a constantly evolving, huge range of diagnostic and
therapeutic tools is given to us that we use in order to lodge objections with
the person who comes to us with a problem finding one and treat him. The
most valuable of these tools include our own conscious perception, our
feeling and our Applied palpatory ability. With them, we have part of the
internal environment of the patient, whether in a primary care or in a
complementary treatment in the context of examination and treatment
program.
For purposes of this discussion, I have divided the self-organization of
the people in a principle of life breath and a principle of breathing air.
However, in reality they are one - one in the inherent ability of the individual
to express the life physically, mentally, emotionally and philosophically. As
an osteopath I can use all the possibilities of modern medicine and surgery
to help the patient who seeks my support. And when a party I can thanks
to my conscious perception, my flair and my applied palpatory skills work

As Dr. AT Still noted in his e Autobiografi, he has the basics of
Science of osteopathy not invented - he discovered it. Equally Dr. WG
Sutherland invented the concept Cranial not - he discovered his
fundamental principles. He found that the cerebrospinal fluid is exchanged
with what he called the Breath of Life. If you control the fluctuation of the
cerebrospinal fluid, by bringing him down to a relative standstill point,
immediately there is a transmutation, an exchange between the highest
known element and the cerebrospinal fluid. This exchange results in a
nourishing factor, which may be called sparks and bioenergy, as well as
Further, still to be discovered factors that whatsoever cerebrospinal fluid
is ends throughout the body physiology to fi between the cerebrospinal
fluid and the central nervous system, the capillaries of the choroid plexus,
and where, act. Complicated, lifeless machinery - such as in a car, a
dishwasher, a moon rocket - needs a spark in their systems, so that they
can start and run. Biological systems have built for millennia a spark and
a Bioe nergy system in its mechanisms. This is not an esoteric or
religious imagination; It's a simple, bioenergetic, physiological fact.

Body goes from head to toe in his involuntary mobility ten times per minute
in anatomic-physiologic flexion / external rotation and extension / internal
rotation - through a micro mobility throughout the functional model of the
whole body.
I have an arbitrary body with which I walk, I can shake or be otherwise
do something I want. And at the same time, while I do that, as I stand here,
these involuntary flexion / external rotation and extension / internal rotation
takes place in the entire mechanism that belongs to us.
Let us also science Liche" evidence is lacking that the primary
respiratory mechanism is responsible for all this involuntary system
throughout the body, we can still say categorically - and this claim can be
put up defi nitely - that this is the only way in which the primary breath
mechanism operates. There are within the primary respiratory mechanism
no muscle work or other arbitrary mechanisms that induce him to this flexion
/ external rotation and extension / internal rotation - this is really the only
way, as he works.
There is a mechanism, and this means that we have to study it as a
mechanism. We have the bones, the meninges, the central nervous system
and the cerebrospinal fluid study as working units - as work units belonging
to something that does what it does, because it was intended and
because that simply is just the only way, how it can work.
My task now is to talk about the amount of cerebrospinal fluid in this
mechanism. According to Dr. Sutherland is the Liquor cerebrospinalis the
primary, fundamental principle in the primary respiratory mechanism. After
Dr. AT Still, he is the highest known element in the human body, and there
are other places in its written s, suggesting that there is something different
from other Krperfl uids that there is something in the cerebrospinal fluid,
which a basic law expresses.
The cerebrospinal fluid is a fluid drive. He fl uktuiert and changes and
does not require the rolling and unrolling of the central nervous system, so
that it can uktuieren fl. He fl uktuiert, point. This fact you have to accept. I
have accepted it on the day, when I heard them say Will Sutherland. I
assumed that it was true, and I have never found a contrary proof in my
patients. I do not care really what makes him the Fluid Drive - I want to let
him work easy - it is a principle.
The cerebrospinal fluid has an automatic fluid Drive, the things GEI 109
sought to initiate a twist left, it stopped before it ever anfi ng. Well,
What is the result of a pronounced twist like this? The central nervous
system must be twisted in a twist as well as the reciprocal tension
membrane and the bony elements. Due to the pronounced torsional
mechanism of aqueduct of Sylvius was twisted this patient like a tube and
it was not a good fluid exchange between the third and fourth ventricles
instead. They probably had their lives a torsion mechanism, but then had
befallen her something: She had fallen, had twists, sat down too hard or
I-115
brings.In any body tissue there is trouble, all fascia, in all lymph channels
of the body. So I'm not only a CV4 technique in the field of the fourth
ventricle, I make a CV4 technique that influenced food the whole pattern of
the cerebrospinal fluid throughout the body infl.
In one case, I had to sit 45 minutes and wait until the liquid through came
in a still point, and through him, before this Supraokziput was hot. When the
patient returned the next time, it took only 40 minutes and the next time only
30 So we moving in the right direction. In about six to twelve months it will
take the normal seven minutes, and the patient will be alive. He will still
have rheumatoid arthritis - that's not the point. But he will be alive again.
I want to emphasize here that the CV4 technique is a lively treatment. It
is necessary to read the quality of the liquid in the mechanism and the
quality of the
Tissue. In a CV4 technique is not simply a routine in which one invests his
hands, something does, and then passes it. You really need the quality of
the entire mechanism Read, if you apply a CV4 technique.
How much pressure exerted on her Supraokziput, varies from patient to
patient and from
Treatment to treatment differently - some are tougher, and some are gentle
it. You can get overreact when you make a CV4 technique on Supraokziput,
especially if the patient is a dysfunction in okzipitomastoidalen area has regardless of whether this dysfunction has existed for 25 years or 25
minutes. These patients have a compression of supraocciput in relation to
the temporal bone on the side of dysfunction - and now you compress it
even more. Dysfunctions in okzipitomastoidalen area are notorious for
triggering overreactions. You can really have a problem,
if one makes a CV4 technique in the field of okzipitomastoidalen
dysfunction while haphazardly applies the same power from both sides of
the supraocciput.
Let me give you a little tip - but it is different in each patient, and will not
work for everyone so, as I describe it. You will it, depending on the quality
and requirement on each patient must adjust. So here's my tip: Because
this Supraokziput has been driven into the temporal in the os already up,
it's on this side have the compression that you want to achieve by a CV4
technique. Therefore, you are the side where the Supraokziput has
okzipitomastoidale dysfunction, only support and turns on the other side of
a compression until one of the Tide Liquor CEI 117
considers it until you can feel the reaction of cerebrospinal fluid, which is
that it is quiet and comes to a point where he changed his inner fulcrum.
This approach from the sacrum from being used in all cases where the
cranium suspected such a strong trauma that you can not ranwagt there,
but still a bit of theory erapeutisches want to do for the patient. We know it
when we bring the liquor into the silence, comes to an exchange of fluid
balance; the vital, physiological centers are stimulated; the tension in the

their complaints are.In case of psoas spasm, her puts a hand under these
spastic lumbar and the other hand on the abdomen about it so that the
problem is between your hands. Now feel after this involuntary tidal
mechanism of cerebrospinal fluid, which you have already felt throughout
the body. He feels in this area of dysfunction equal to?
No, he's eingeschnkt, there is so much disability that interferes with the
fluctuation pattern. It can be seen that one does not feel the same vigor as
in the whole person. Mark you, how that feels this dysfunction.
Now make her your treatment.You give the patient an appropriate for this
day and this particular problem treatment. What a technique you use, does
not matter. When you're done with the treatment, and thinks you have your
correction or whatever made, lay your hand back under these lumbar and
traces of the same Tide that you first felt it throughout the body. Then, when
you realize that the lumbar region just treated can express the involuntary
movement better, it means that your treatment of the lumbar spasm has
yielded truly corrective results, because the
"Boss," the entire involuntary mechanism, is now also present locally in this
area. You can feel that it's happened, something's going on.
However, if you go back to this area, re-examined and the same feeling
of stasis fi nd still treating the patient, I can guarantee you that you have not
accomplished much. Even if it leaves the practice, they will be back arrived
at the same complaints with which they came in. This tide can thus be used
as a small, invisible diagnostic clue. We can use this silent, involuntary
mechanism as a hint that leads us in our treatment programs for the rest of
the body.
Ask yourself quietly in each patient: How is the quality of this primary vital
function in this patient? What is the quality in the healthy areas,
as it is in the area of dysfunction, as it is before and after each office visit?
If you work with the stress patterns and disorders of your patients, you're
always aware of quiet, the fact that this fluctuation pattern, this entire unit
constantly is your silent partner and helps you to bring about corrective
changes in the areas of dysfunction; because your goal for these patients
is to restore health. Patients are not only there so that is cracked or
corrected its dysfunction. They are there to get rid of the stress, the loss of
function, movement disorder, the I-125

"This maxim has given us AT Still. Health is much more than just the
absence of disease or trauma. It is a living, dynamic Learn anatomical and

Certain basic principles of osteopathic practitioner takes for granted:

These principles are based the time, the tissues and the tides the tools the
body uses to express health or certain traumatized or diseased areas.
The body is a unit
Provided so a certain time to exist, the body is a complete system consisting
of tissues and fluids in constant mobility and motility. It is equipped with
voluntary and involuntary mechanisms which make it possible to use it in
everyday life and for maintaining health. Dr. Still gave us the science of
osteopathy, which allows us to understand the body as a unit, including the
cranial concept.
Dr. Sutherland has hufi g stresses that its contribution to the detailed
anatomy and physiology of the craniosacral mechanism, a continuation of
the science of osteopathy within the meaning of Dr. Still's vision. A body - a
functional unit.

be, if it manifests itself. I do not know its origin; I feel not that they occur in
every patient, and I do not induziere to begin their rhythmic pattern. They
showed me the first time several years ago when I treated a patient and
watched the 8 to 12 times per minute and other decongestants Tide did
their work in patients. Since then I have often observed this massive tide
and can report that in every patient it is not universally the same, it is
expressed individually in each patient. I never know when they will
themselves runs, and I do not know where to return when they aufh work
rt in a particular patient.
There are hundreds of self-regulating mechanisms in the body
physiology, but now we want the involuntary mobility of rapid, 8 to
12 times per minute running and the slow, stattfi ndenden within 10 minutes
6 times Tide deal. Both tidal movements can be palpated when developing
a trained sense of touch. Palpated to the presence of these tides, should
be done preferably as a party, as in quantum mechanics. In this process,
the therapist joins with its sensory input, to participate in the movement of
the respective Tide while they performed their work in the patient's
physiology. Both tides are noticeable both in health and in injuries and / or
illness. The quality of Tidenbewegung varies however, depending on
whether a healthy, a traumatized or diseased state prevails, sometimes
depending on the problem locally, sometimes referred to as a total unit of
body tissue function.
Both tides are inherent, innate and involuntary self-regulating
mechanisms, whose main objective is the maintenance of health. They are
factors that contribute to the efforts of the body, in the case of

The fast Tide: The fluctuation of the cerebrospinal fluid, the friend of 8 to
12 times per minute stattfi, is one of the fl uid components of the involuntary
movement of mittellinigen and paired structures. The cerebrospinal fluid
and its tidenartige fluctuation has been studied for years. Its fluctuation
pattern can be modifi ed to meet what needs physiology in patients. An
understanding of how you can use the CSF and its fast Tide will likely
promote the understanding of the function of the slow tide. A Tide in the

The cerebrospinal fluid is a component of the primary

Recognizes the science of osteopathy and accepted all the physiological
mechanisms that created the health of every human being s and

fundamental aspects of these health principles.
The fluctuation of the cerebrospinal fluid Cerebrospinal can be observed
by means of palpation. The existing pattern of rapid fluctuation Tide can

years ago and since then many times. There are different types of
osteopathy in the I-133
even the relatively healthy. If this Tidenwelle has reached its highest level,
there is a short pause and then she begins herauszuebben. It seems that
the full addition Ebben from all tissues and fluid spaces as well
takes a lot of time, such as filling. After another short break, they come
back in, pause, ebbs addition - and this happened 6 times in a 10 minute
period.
The quality of the slow Tide varies with problems of different patients and
may be different in each case in the same patient at different times.
Interesting case study shows how this slow Tide works: The patient had a
serious clinical problem there, which required weekly treatment, to give it
as a support for his recovery the maximum self-treatment input. While
several treatments to slow the tide did not show. But when she appeared,
her first wave was a powerful intumescent filling the body and physiology
mediated a feeling as if she had to force their way against the resistance of
the fluids and tissues of the body literally. She came to its climax, paused
and then ebbed out with almost the same urgency. Then was a brief pause,
and the second wave came in, and with it a sense, as they try to cope with
the consequences of the first wave - a reassuring infl uence. The third wave
appeared in her Auff Bucket Fill and out Ebben practical as a relief. Thus
the appearance of the slow tide in this treatment was completed; total
issued three waves in 6 minutes. In the meantime, went on the selfcorrecting treatment in matters of local somatic dysfunction, but was during
the three cycles of the slow tide and even then effi ciently. The following
weekly treatments slow the Tide did not appear every time.
Off Obviously it was necessary for the physiology of the patient precisely at
the time of their appearance in his treatment program.
Unlike the fast, 8 to 12 times per minute stattfi Ndende Tide, which can
be modifi decorate with a variety of techniques in their function way, the
slow tide seems to be a in themselves and in the patient's physiology to be
inherent unit in which you do not try to decorate them or their work to modifi.
I fi nd it more effi cient, simply continue my efforts, self-correcting, to induce
healing changes in the local areas of dysfunction, and integrating all the
effects of the slow tide in the local treatment, while it is in the whole body at
the filling and ebbing. Through bringing a ligamentous or fascial strain

somatic dysfunction, to finally bring the healthy element to the fore, which
should be there. If this health factor then shows the palpating hands of the
practitioner, this makes every effort to work with him instead of with the
superimposed stress mechanism. In other words: The practitioner seeks so
to speak hand in hand with the body physiology of patients coming from
inside recovery.
He affirmed the structure and function and their reciprocal interaction and
developed palpatory skills to use these principles. The body physiology of
the patient directs the practitioner in his efforts to meet their needs by giving

The task of diagnostic palpation in K
raniosakralen mechanism
Lecture February 1983rd
Palpation of the craniosacral mechanism
Dr. AT Still mediated the osteopathic practitioner following concepts: The
role of the artery is outstanding. The body has an innate ability to heal itself;
and between structure and function is a reciprocal relationship. Dr. William
G. Sutherland added another fundamental concept added: Arterial flow is
the highest, but the High Command has the cerebrospinal fluid, the
fluctuation can be observed within a natural cave with the help of palpation
when working superiorly.
Although Dr. Sutherland on the mechanism of primary respiration - the
craniosacral mechanism - said, we know that the body physiology is an
anatomically-physiological function unit to which this includes the Primary
respiratory mechanism. The craniosacral mechanism is not a separate
area.
To demonstrate this rhythmic, involuntary, portable, two-way structurefunction relationship, we want to think about the following:
CSF: He is constantly producing, and indeed, as we assume, of the
lateral ventricles and in the third and fourth ventricles of the central nervous
system are in choroid photosensitive Plexi. From the fourth ventricle of fl
ows of cerebrospinal fluid around the Subarachnoidalrume to the brain
and the spinal canal down to the sacrum. By Granulationes arachnoidales
in superior sagittal sinus it is reabsorbed into the venous system. He also
follows the perineural channels or servings of cranial and spinal peripheral
nerve and is then absorbed into the lymphatic fluid system, the third
circulation of body physiology. With regard to the circulation, are the
cerebrospinal fluid and thus the physiological Krperfl uids a common
functional unit.

fill cerebrospinalis with the incoming tide of liquor. In the opposite phase
the ventricle with the ebbing tide are slim. This constant, involuntary,
rhythmic motility of the central nervous system contributes together with the
fl uktuierenden cerebrospinal fluid at and the reciprocal tension membrane
to a good venous drainage of the brain, the pituitary, pineal, and other key
functions.
Notes on palpation: It is difficult to sense the motility of the central
nervous system, and generally not necessary. The expansion of a
compressed portion of a Grohirnhlft e can be palpated during a correction
phase of a membranous joint Trains occasionally.

Fulcrum and the reciprocal tension membrane controlled. The relative
mobility of the sphenoid infl uenced the frontal (or both Ossa frontalia) and
the bones of the face, and the occipital bone infl uenced the temporal
bones, the parietal bones and the mandible.
The membranous articulation patterns in craniosacral mechanism are
described in terms of their relationship to the SSB. They include torsion
(left or right), Sidebending rotation (right or left) and compression. In
addition, there is in connection with the mutual relations of the individual
sutures specifi c membranous joint Trains, eg a strain of occipitomastoid
suture, so the relationship between frontal and sphenoid or frontal and
parietal, or a strain on Angulus mastoideus the parietal -. And more so many
more as there are articulated connections.
The basic, described in reference to the SSB pattern, ie, for. Example, a
Torsion, are reflected in all parts of bone and connective tissue throughout
the body physiology. The same is true for some heavy specifi c
membranous joint Trains such. As a dysfunction of occipitomastoid suture.
Notes on palpation: The bony elements are located on the surface face
of the craniosacral mechanism and are more accessible for tactile evaluate.
However, it is important to understand that they are part of a membranous
hinge mechanism. And the art of diagnosis is to palpate the mobile
operation of these bony elements in health and dysfunction. The bones
were, taken from a moving mechanism for the ride.
Sacrum: The sacrum plays an important role in the mobility of the body
physiology, because it has a complicated overriding pattern for arbitrary or
postural pelvic movement and a constant, rhythmic, involuntary flexionextension-mobility as part of the craniosacral mechanism. The sacrum
forms the lower pole of the reciprocal tension membrane and part of the
Sutherland fulcrum and the three lever arms or sickles. Blocked by trauma
in his involuntary mobility, the sacrum can restrict the movement of the
entire reciprocal tension membrane and the connective tissue of the body.
Such a restriction may contribute to many problems throughout the body
physiology. A loss of involuntary mobility of the sacrum is not necessarily
lead to a loss of an arbitrary or attitude mobility of the sacrum, and the loss
of involuntary movement is often overlooked.

Rotational patterns of SSB, the prodromal symptoms begin on the side

both a
Artistry and science. From the science point of view to them represents a
quantum leap in the sensory perception. Once the practitioner places his
hands on a patient in order to diagnose and treat palpation, he takes with
him participate in this quantum experience. It is completely impossible for
him to be a neutral or independent observer, while he works with the living
tissues of the patient.
The practitioner is an involuntary primary respiratory mechanism within
a living body physiology arbitrary. His patient has the same qualities: an

Patient out-working units and also enough time to allow the tissues

proprioceptive sensory input, he must wait a few moments or even minutes
until the awakened Primary respiratory mechanism and the mechanisms of
body physiology begin to work. These mechanisms include all cells, fluids,
tissue and their tidenartige movement, mobility and motility.
If the palpated area healthy, he will inform the clinician that fact by
appropriate tone quality of the randomly moving tissue as well as the quality
of the involuntary mobility of the basic rhythm, where the primary respiratory
mechanism during flexion / external rotation, extension / internal rotation of
mittellinigen and bilateral structures follows. Prevails, however, in areas

taken are lousy? Do you feel anything? Do you feel really, what's going
on? You know really what's going on? We need to develop our sense of
touch, by training the sensory area of the brain, that was never exposed to
this type of sensing previously. We take an orange and an apple in his
hand and feel that the fruit has an uneven surface che and the other a
relatively smooth - great! But how are things now with the fine motilities
and mobilities that stattfnden here in this body that we feel? We need to
develop palpation tools that match the complexity and simplicity of this
primary respiratory mechanism. We must learn to feel. But this does not
happen by teaching. I can teach you anything about it - you have it even
on a
Learn one-on-one basis. Patients have taught me, from inside out. As I
listened from my heart out, I learned from her inside, how to work with the
body physiology. I do not even now all I have to actually know, I'm still
learning.
Five years after I started with this new way of working, I moved from
Michigan to Texas. When it was so far over three hundred people came to
me and said, "We like what you're doing. Where can we get further treat
us in this way? "You can believe it or not, but that was the first time in five
years, had in those working in this way, that people said he liked them.
Before that date, not a single person had told me that it was a good
approach. I only reason that the approach was good because he knew
worked.
Interestingly enough, was the fact that I felt nothing in those first years,
not determinative of the effi ciency of treatment. I could not feel anything
from what I feel today, but I worked with a body physiology in patients who
knew that something was happening. You did something for these patients
- not because I feel it, or give her instructions or could tell her: "Be quiet,"
or they could do anything else, but simply because I took over the job, the
range in the patient to get hold of the bit had to say. It was about my hands
to position and then quietly listening using my hands to read with the help
of my hands, to feel quietly what the patient was trying to tell me. It was not
the ego of the patient or his intellect, but the rest of his tissue function, which

What the practitioner should do to palpation of the mechanism:

Feel with sensorimotor input.
Read with sensorimotor input.
Listen with sensorimotor input.

And another note for Th ema listening: If you listen to the body physiology
of the patient, Be aware of how much is happening in the anatomicphysiologic overall structure of the patient's body - compared to the little
that is happening, if the therapist is not listening. The deeper enters the
practitioner in himself to listen through his palpatory contact through the
activity in the body physiology of the patient, the more information is shown
to him during his investigation.
Listen to this process on, think about and give yourselves completely to
what comes from the anatomical-physiological totality of the patient. Let
that it is stored as sensory input for you as a practitioner who receives this
input and accepts, without judging its contents. This allows the anatomicphysiological mechanism of the patient "the inherent physiological function
to allow, enbaren their own, infallible Potency to off, rather than blind force
applied from the outside." 29 The practitioner agrees that the body
physiology of the patient uses it.

to get the reaction of the concepts, rather hinders. He repeatedly remarked Dr. Wales

to develop of potency. The diagnostic tool with which we learn to read
these potency and understand is the use of Fulkrums. We
will use the principle of Fulkrums, by leveraging our hands and fingers so
that we created an environment s, in which the principle of potency is
useable detectable for us and for diagnosis and treatment.
The dictionary-defi nition of "potency" is "the state or quality of being
strong, or the extent of this power; Force; . Strength "and" potent "is defi
ned as" be able to control and exert infl uence; Have authority or power.
"For years we have heard that the body has all the factors by which he can
get healthy or heal in the event of trauma or disease. This statement is
basically true. The body has the ability to express by means of these
inherent potency health, and he is capable of compensatory mechanisms
in response to trauma or
Maintain disease using different Potencys. In the very center perfect health
in the human body resides a potency that manifests him in health. Also
lives in the very center of any traumatic or disease-related condition in the
human body a potency that manifests their reciprocal relationship with the
body in trauma or disease.
It is up to us to learn, to feel this potency. It is relatively easy to feel the
tension and stress patterns of trauma and disease; but within this be off
enbarenden elements there is a potency that is capable to control and exert
infl uence because it has authority or power. They centered the disorder.
This can be felt and read by means of sentient contact.
To get a clearer idea of what it means to feel the potency within a specific
problem, we take as an example a natural phenomenon that demonstrates
the strength in the potency - a hurricane. It can be shown that the principles
and manifestations of a hurricane similar to the principles and
manifestations of disease and traumas in the human body.
I have the potency considered a Fulkrumpunkt that around and through
which the human physiology inherent biodynamic Krft e their work in
health do as well as inherent biodynamic Krft e maintained for the order
by him or her illnesses traumatized states in the body. This potency is
similar to the power or the energy field in Fulkrumpunkt a moving seesaw

me with their problems. I became aware of this field of silence, which forms
the center of each trauma or any disease. Slowly, over a long
Time out, the knowledge and understanding developed, why it exists and
what is its role in the trauma or disease process.
Would have had any change in the eye of Carla occurred before she met
on the Texas coast, then have also the entire pattern of their spirals,
changed the intensity of its winds and other factors in order to adapt to this
change in potency in mind. Likewise, I can observe that whenever any
change in the area of silence in patients stattfi friend, said a completely new
design in the related traumatic or disease patterns or otherwise manifested
in the Potency. And that did not discover about me. It exists out of itself.
It asks only that you recognize its existence and that it takes time to develop
a feel for the touch and perception, with which one can see it. As always,
the problem remains that which is to express in words, and methods to fi
nd that it can become a part of our experience. It's just something that one
learns only from itself.

In order to develop this sense of touch, you first have the principle of
Fulkrums learn and can then work out a way to use the fulcrum in the
diagnostic approach. The dictionary defi ned fulcrum as "support or support
point on which a lever turns, it moves or lifts something." So it's something
that you can put pressure etc. infl uence. There is a statement by Dr. WG
Sutherland, where he describes the fulcrum in relation to the two en hlft
the tentorium and the falx:
"The fulcrum is that silence, not moving lever connection, through which the three
sickles act on or physiologically in cranial membranous tension mechanism when they
really get the voltage aufr. As with all Fulkren, it can be moved from one point to another,
but there is with respect to its leverage feature silent and motionless. "31

In forming my sense of touch, I can still go one step further. By the Still
Point of Fulkrums and through the depths of my fingers touch, I can develop
a conscious awareness of the potency and structural function in the tissues
of the body of my patient. This perception goes beyond the physical
sensations all around donor compounds the five senses of the practitioner.
In my opinion, it is not what I feel with my finger-touch. Instead, it is what

Most dysfunctions of the body change in the center of the disturbed area
on a micrometric level of structure and function. Can you feel how the Krft
e can melt away the dysfunction pattern while watching her?
Can you feel the flatness and the loss of vitality, of any so-called
"Nervous breakdown" and all cases of a syndrome accompanied
postencephalitic? Can you feel how increases in such a case, during your
treatment, normal vitality?
Can you with a freshly experienced whiplash determine the direction of
the force of the accident, when you lay your hands on the diagnosed aff
enes tissue? Can you feel fatigue in the tissue, be it throughout the body
of the patient or in specifi c sick or traumatized areas? This is an extremely
important factor in diagnostic and therapeutic considerations: Do I
understand what I feel?
These are just some of the myriad ways in which the upfront diagnostic
touch off. In each area mentioned qualitative, quantitative, prognostic,
diagnostic and therapeutic considerations apply. In this
Field of self-effort, the diagnostic touching, no one is an expert. This lively
body lying on the treatment table in front of you, is the teacher.
He challenges you to discover his problem.
In developing the diagnostic touching there are several steps that can be
summarized as follows: Positioned your hands or your hands on or below
the tissue, which want to investigate her. Established a Fulkrumpunkt for
each hand contact, can of the work from her. Let your hands and palpating
Fulkrumpunkte become one with the tissue to be treated. Let that function
and dysfunction of the tissues by your hands and FulkrumI-179
or a dysfunction there that will teach you the experience that it is
necessary to build a more solid contact to the Fulkrumpunkten, so you can
watch how shows the dysfunction in this area. Experience and the nature
of the problem studied are perfecting your understanding.
Let me clarify what I mean when I say pressure on Fulkrumkontakt and
not on hand contact. When the down expresses an end of a lever which
operates on a fulcrum, automatically lifts the other end of the lever. But
that's not the kind of lever mechanism that I mean, if I by force - speak or
print application to my Fulkrumpunkt. My hand contact is not lifted, in the
patient's body into it. My hand contact is gently but firmly with the patient's
body in contact and I turn proportional to the degree of dysfunction that I
feel in the tissue, pressure or force directly down on my Fulkrumpunkt on.
The hand contact remains gently but firmly in contact with the body
physiology of the patient. So if a man has about a 50-kilogram sack lifted
wrong, I turn to my Fulkrumpunkt probably a significant
Downward pressure on in order to counterbalance this by lifting the 50kilogram

the same degree of intensity, because that I would block the sense
impressions that one receives from the bioenergy fields in patients who

our work, our hands are apparently still on the patient, the movement,
mobility and motility, we feel the patient is, however - depending on the
problem - considerably. In the tissues, there is a planned pattern by which
they go when they show their dysfunction. They work their way through to
a point, seems to stop the every sense of movement or mobility. This is the
Still Point. It's quiet - and yet fully biodynamic force. That is the potency
range for this dysfunction pattern. A still point within this functional unit. At
this time, carries out a change that can not really feel the therapist, but
rather perceives as the feeling that a change has taken place. After that
manifested a new pattern, because the fabric create a new functional state.
It's a more normal function pattern, compared with the limitation that existed
at the beginning of the investigation. The extent of the correction, the friend
stattfi may not seem large, but it is an existing Gewebspathologie
appropriate physiological correction and it is everything in this can
accomplish a treatment to correct the physiological tissue.
By following the biodynamic inherent Krft en and their potency and the
biokinetic inherent Krft en and their Potencys by the potency or the Still
Point in Gewebsmuster the patient, I could in most pathological conditions
I have encountered in patients achieve therapeutic success. Needless to
say, that the terminally ill patient, for example, those with cancer, eventually
died. But the results of this treatment brought them in the meantime,
symptomatic relief, and that more relief than with other therapeutic agents
would have been possible.
In other cases, where the potential was available in the direction normal
health for a reversal of the pathological condition, the physiology of the
patient responded with its maximum performance to return to normalcy or
recompensation. A fellow practitioner once told me the following to me:
" If one uses Diagnostic and Therapeutic Touch as you do, disease states through While

with a minimum of complications and long-term consequences. In traumatic conditions is

to move from one point to another, but this remains silent in its lever
function. You can take a glass of water and transferred a fine vibration on,
until you see that the water forms a pattern that is centered in the middle of
the glass. There is a silent point is formed around the in response to the
vibration pattern of the water. It is important to understand that in the
periphery to a friend Fulkrumzentrum around an incredible activity stattfi,
and also that the potency in Fulkrumbereich is part of that total kinetic
energy pattern. Fulkrumpunkte exist in all material s, masses in the air, in
liquids, but also in solid substances.
There is a potency in all Fulkren for activities in the functional processes
of the body; and as the world of nature, in this body exists, this function
processes its own power make biodynamic ready. It takes ability, time and
patience to learn how to sensed this function to learn how you can feel the
movement initiated by these living structures in tissues - not voluntary
movement that emanates from the clinician or patient, but that movement,
the already there when this patient quietly lies on the treatment table. It
takes time and patience to learn how to follow the patterns that show up in
this pattern, how the potency is aware in the Fulkrumpunkten and how
during diagnostic or therapeutic study perceives the moment in which a
change in the potency has occurred. Likewise, one learns only gradually
over time, to feel how the pattern develops after it has passed through the
still point, and analyze this material and translate it into clear physiological
ideas. In words taken to developing a diagnostic touching sounds quite
complex, but in the practical implementation, it is a relatively simple matter.
People with no experience in this field are hufi g skeptical. They do not
believe that diagnostic touch can fulfill everything that is ascribed to him on
positives. However, a sense of skepticism is a valuable aid in this work. It
helps one to keep our feet on the ground. The therapist asks a living body
for information. If he absolutely can not believe that it is possible to receive
this information by diagnostic touch, he will get very little information. Only
when he allowed his mind to the possibility to ff nen that you can actually
receive information in this way, and if it means brings just as much
skepticism that the body is challenged to prove himself as an information
provider, I-189

Diagnostic Touch Part 3:
Application
Part III of diagnostic Touch , originally from the Academy
of Applied Osteopathy published, has been largely
replaced for this book by material that Dr. Becker had
prepared for a presentation at a meeting of the Academy
s, and contains all 26 photos that Dr . Becker had made
for this lecture - in the original article, there were only ten.
A dentist has two tasks when a patient first comes to him, he must first
diagnose the patient's problems and then offer him professional help for
these problems. Diagnostic touch helps both. The patient and his problem
is a challenge for the practitioner.
When working with diagnostic touching is the patient of teachers. His
problem quasi represents the space where his inherent biodynamic Krft e
and their infallible Potency the students - that is, the practitioner with his
diagnostic touch - teach. When diagnostic touching it comes to learning how
to feel the inherent biodynamic Krft e and understands and how the hidden
in them, infallible Potency is aware. I ask the biodynamic and biokinetic
Krft e of patients and their Potencys to tell me their findings through my
Fulkrumpunkte. And they do, without ever being wrong. If an error occurs,
then this is due to my inability this Krft e and Potencys perceive correctly
and to interpret.
I've learned that this force are fields in the patient always in action. The
coated fabric of its connective tissue elements and the fl uid contents
automatically move with it, while the bioenergy patterns unfold in its
functioning. I have to go as it were out of the way and follow the bioenergy
patterns. One can compare this role at a concert with an accompanying
musician. A good sideman follows the singer for whom he plays and lets
them take the lead. If the practitioner chooses to approach via fulcrum and
pressure, it stimulates its fulcrum-pressure points on the bioenergy factors
in patients and can then take from the pattern in the patient through its
activity cycle.

pensions biokinetic Krft s in the body physiology, over, around and through
the manifest this activity pattern. It is comparable to the force at the point
which serves as a fulcrum for a balance board or with the eye of a hurricane.
A fulcrum has energy and strength. The practitioner noticed this pause rest
time and their potency when he studied these patterns through its
diagnostic touch.
Once the clinician has positioned his hand contacts and established a
Fulkrumpunkt for each of them, he initiated by applying pressure or force to
his Fulkrumpunkt an activity in the inherent biodynamic
Krft s and the inherent biokinetic Krft s in patients. He can then ability to
sense how the tissue elements and these energies go through on a
micrometric level three distinct phases of activity over its Fulkrumpunkte:
1.
It feels as if these energy fields and fabric elements working
towards the balance point for this pattern within their pattern.
2.
A silent pause resting phase, the potency is achieved and all
movement seems to stop. Until then, the practitioner can follow these
changes with the help of his hand contacts and Fulkrumpunkte and
so the problems of
Better understand patients. If the pattern through the silence goes, fi nd
a change in the potency instead. "Something happened," because of this
change in potency. This is the correction phase in the course of
treatment.
3.
In the fields of energy and tissue elements motion is felt again.
The pattern that is unfolding now, manifests itself as a more normal
functional models for the disturbed area.
These three phases can in one minute, go through their cycle within a
short time, for. Example, but it may also be that it takes several minutes,
depending on the extent and intensity of pathological physiology, at issue
here.
Phase 2, the physiological break Serenity moment, is the goal that the
practitioner wants to achieve through diagnostic touch. Pressure on fulcrum
of the practitioner uses the power in the potency, the break-rest phase the
body physiology. The physiological energy fields donate the moving force
for both the diagnostic information that deepens the insight of the
practitioner, as well as for the therapeutic benefit of the patient.
As a practitioner who uses diagnostic touch, I have directed my attention
to the potency in this patient because I know that when a change in this
potency friend stattfi, a completely new, Richi-193

The bioenergy field of welfare exploitation ends or health
The bioenergy well ndens fishing is the most powerful force in the world. It
is dynamic. It is rhythmic. It is a force field that begins with the moment of
conception and continues until the last moment of death.
The body is an independent mechanism provided with the ability to
homeostasis, which serves for the stabilization of its internal environment.
So he can maintain his health and treat disease, trauma and stressful
situations. All he needs to fulfill his life-sustaining basic needs, he relates
from his external environment. Physically, mentally and emotionally, he is
in constant contact with the external environment, ranging from his
immediate environment to the farthest universe. Why then separate internal
and external environment? Instead of the term e to use "man" and
"separated his environment," they can also be summed up in one word:
biosphere.
The bioenergy field of health is a tangible experience. It is possible to feel
exactly how the bioenergy of Health is working in our patients. It is a quiet,
rhythmic sensations all around ends of a complete exchange between the
patient's body and the rest of his biosphere. In a healthy state fi complete
replacement rather than a friend without any area restriction, stress, trauma
or stress.
Everyone has his own bio-energy field of self-well-being, which
constantly changes from the cradle to the grave. Every man, every woman,
every child has his or her individual pattern. When a young woman who
suffers from an intestinal inflammation for years, another health pattern is
determined normal than an athlete of her age. If the practitioner can feel in
a patient that this and its biosphere are in harmonious exchange, he can
dismiss him with the certainty that he is healthy again.
Power factors in the body physiology
To create a trauma in the body physiology, force is required from the
outside, and some of that force remains as a part of any traumatic
experience. Some of these adventitious force factors that I would call
biokinetic energy, the body absorbs. This force is a part of physiology in I213
go with them. their own inherent energy, together with the bioenergy
throughout the body physiology of the patient benefits Your pattern of
activity gives me the diagnostic information that I interpreted to the effect
that the patient has a rotational compression dysfunction in the area of the
fourth and fifth lumbar vertebrae and that s on both sides there is
considerable muscle spasm in the psoas. The pattern continues to show
me by it reaches its focus, comes at a still point, go through a point where
"something happens" and finally hineinentfaltet in a corrective, normalizing
change of all structures involved in the Potency. The total time for the
treatment varies between five and fifteen minutes. The patient leaves the
treatment bench very relieved and if its tissues were not damaged too,
will return with him within the next few hours or days everything back to
normal.
According to the patients I have not done much. In the three-phase cycle
of the process he may have sensed changes in themselves or not. Even an
outside observer would probably say that I have not done much, because
he sees neither me nor the patient in motion. Had he but put his hand
between my elbow and my fulcrum-point pressure on the knee, it would be
a different story. I have applied enough pressure to create a counterweight
to the 40-kilo bag, enough pressure to compensate those biokinetic force
that had been added to the body physiology of the patient to produce the
described patterns of dysfunction. When I met this force in patients who
bioenergy factors began in him, at its maximum effi work zienzlevel to
factors return the biokinetic force back to its biosphere. What remained was
the pattern of bioenergetic good fishing ndens this patient. Sometimes I am
so strongly leaning on my fulcrum-pressure points that I got bruises. The
patient does not feel this, because by I build a counterweight to the Krft s
in it, I have his sense of the factors that make its dysfunction patterns
canceled. He feels only the relief that is formed when the energy to which it
is going to be compensated. So it's much more than simply a "laying on of
hands." It is in every patient and every time you use it, a knowledge of body
physiology, bio-energy and the biokinetic energy and a

For a man whose left very badly injured leg had taken months to heal, the
lumbar region of the spinal cord appeared in a state
to be of shock. The bioenergy field in this area felt abnormal. Even as his
leg was already healed, the man always felt his legs as very cold. As the
lumbar region with the aid of corrective treatment restored his normal
bioenergy factor of health, this feeling disappeared. Such a situation I
observed also in two other cases: In one case, the patient had a completely

Philosophy and methods of treating
Revised version of a lecture delivered in 1983 during a basic course of
the Sutherland Cranial Teaching Foundation in Colorado Springs,
Colorado.
This lecture on treatment philosophy and treatment methods is only a
summary and a reminder of what you have already learned during this
course. In the first few days of the course you have been working to feel
and function to make a diagnosis. But in reality, you've already dealt with
all the time. Diagnosis and treatment are in fact inseparable.
It is very difficult to express in words health. Health is a word of unknown
meaning. For us health is simply health. We have no Defi nition for it. We
can not prove that we are healthy; we can not prove that we feel health.
Yet health in the broadest sense, health is very important, a little. It is the
reason that we're all here - I do not mean here in this classroom event, but
here on Earth. We are here because we own health. As clinicians, we want
to recognize and learn this quality of health in the living body physiology of
our patients. We use our palpatory skills to read these vibrant body
physiology and can thereby, that the body of the patient physiology us their
patterns of health as well as their shows arisen due to illness or stress
patterns.
Therefore, diagnosis and treatment are inextricably linked.
If one learns the science of osteopathy, you get no specifi c instructions.
It is a way of experiencing, a way of developing. I am advised when
developing my principles of osteopathy for my operation in any impasse
that you can imagine. I fought back me on the main road, only to determine
that I was stuck in a dead end again many times. I've done all known errors
that you can do only - and until I'm finished, I'll probably do more. Even Dr.
Sutherland learned until the last week of his life more than the science of
osteopathy and developed better ways to adapt to it. It is an entertaining
journey.

can help his recovery. Then you have to look at if you studied a patient
again. The Tide feels better? If so, then it is good; but
when the patient returns in six months and you have the feeling that the
tide is again limited, this is an indication that you probably should evaluate
your view new that you release more a bit, a listen little harder, learn a bit
more and again shall work for these patients.
We are talking about treatment principles. I'm not trying to teach you
something - no one can teach this kind of work, you can only learn
themselves. Dr. Irvin Korr, one of our famous physiologist, said several
years ago at a conference that it was impossible to convey palpation skills,
because only one person can put your finger on one spot. This is
I-229
Chronic pattern and closed circles
Of course, not simply melt away every problem. The physiology of
Tissue that works with old scar tissue - scar tissue that has been around
for twenty years - is not just wake up and be healthy; you have to train back
to health those tissues, so to speak. Chronically injured tissue must be
trained. Chronic disorders have a tendency to form a closed circuit. My
experience with a certain unwinding technique that had showed me was
that the patient felt better after all the movement - the treatment was as it
were oil in the whole thing into it. But when the patient returned the next
week, he had the same dysfunction, in the same place all the same. A
closed circle - once initiated, it was endless. It was constantly in a circle.
The body had formed a neuromuscular biofeedback closed circle in the
truest sense of the word.
Such a situation means that one has to pass through this feel dysfunction
pattern. One wonders: What does health from this field? And if one has
approached to said dysfunction pattern must be a
In drill hole so that it dissolves; it needs to do something other than just
staying in a closed circuit. Then you can begin to achieve a correction of
this problem. Was it for years since, only the belts must be soft, voltages
in the musculoskeletal system have to change, the autonomic systems
must adorn their function modifi, the lymphatic system has to wake up and
find that there is something to do, and the breath of life must in hineinfl ow
literally in these tissues, and as strong as the rest of
Body. Many things have to change, and they will do slowly.
You can feel how this thing gradually - no, not moved eyelet for a
correction, but as it were, on a self-self-ed and how the health pattern the
prevailing pattern.
Identify pathologies
Another similar idea: If you learn hindurchzuspren to the pathologies in
living tissues, they are not like a book based on headlines identifi ible. You
feel the function of the body physiology as it is designed without a label.
For example, it does not deal with just a bursitis or a I-231
ter have, where I want to be yet, please, even if I am released from your
treatment program. So, I'm trying the overall pattern of body physiology to
fi nd, illustrating how that person copes. Because that makes me
understand how the pattern looks, with this patient has previously lived, and
how this pattern works in flexion / external rotation and extension / internal
rotation. Then I can go back to the problem area and see how this patient
is true to his type pattern in relationship.

zen body and her fl ssiger content in reciprocal, mutual relationship with
the primary respiratory mechanism. The initiation of a function in one of
these elements in turn initiates a physiological action in all elements. That
is the reason why it works. There are just words, but the palpatory
experience proves it.
Response to treatment
How often do I treat? I like to have at least one week between treatments,
unless you have a patient with an acute inflammation of the
Psoas muscle who kills you if you do not receive it earlier. When the
Patient the next time you come, lay your hands on him and begin your
diagnostic program to determine how things developed or not developed.
Does it feel like: "Yes, I have this week been trying to get some work done,
but I'm not sure if I have understood you," then you know that you still have
to do anything else. The patient then comes in the following week again,
you are doing the same thing. One week later, his mechanism says, "Hello,
Doctor, I'm starting to hear you; but I'm with these other things not done
yet - I'm still working on the last three instructions "So it lengthens the
treatment gap to two times, and then once a month.. I try to keep my
patients to treat just often enough to feed back repeatedly to what I'm
working on - back to the patterns that are healthy for these special people.
In the course of a treatment series, it can also happen that you take
positive responses from the body physiology produces a few splendidly
which you were not injured," was the response is positive and the patient or
the patient then remembered such, for months or even years earlier inertia
dysfunction?.
Obleich this usually is not the reason why patients seek treatment, the
therapist meets with the palpatory examination on a single-sided or doublesided restriction of involuntary mobility of the sacrum, which means that the
mobile, motile, 8 to 12 times per minute stattfi Ndende, rhythmic fluid Drive
cycle of body physiology of the patient does not deliver its full
Nhrpotenzial. However, since the patient is due to other problems and did
not come his blocked due sacrum, to develop a treatment program for what
the patient is suffering, and then takes during the treatment phase some
time to solve the dysfunction of the sacrum, so that it in his involuntary
movement work freely again. This solution process coordinated with all
other treatment corrections toward health. There are many different forms
and types of inertia dysfunctions and all require a specifi c findings, a specifi
c diagnosis and treatment. The syndrome of the sacrum with whiplash is
used here as an example, because there are so hufi to observe g,
diagnose and correct towards health.
When working with the body physiology and their inherent unity of
involuntary and voluntary mobility, motility and Fluid Drive, revealed when
the therapist examined by palpation detectable pattern. Here are three
exemplary cases of e "shocked" lumbar thickening of the spinal cord: The
first case is one of my colleagues, the lever through a skylight

system back to adjust so that the water can fl ow Lebensfl ows and the

carry out, if the patient is at home - and usually it happens that way. If the
patient then reported at the next visit of this change, the practitioner can
verifi adorn this result. A fact when working with the body physiology in
patients is that the body physiology during treatment in practice though
initiates its corrective change towards health, the actual treatment results
but set up between treatments. Next visit in practice, completed changes
confirmed and you look at what is still necessary to continue the treatment
program. The body physiology as a teacher is highly accurate in their
diagnosis and their treatment outcomes.
In the third case, a similar restriction in the lumbar spinal cord showed
thickening; However, the cause was a completely different. A man in his
fifties suffered a few years from chronic circulatory disorders of the lower
Krperhlft e and had already been unsuccessfully with several doctors. In
his medical history showed that he twenty years ago a number
had received from 28 rabies vaccination; these were injected into the
abdominal muscle that is innervated by the lumbar thickening of the spinal
cord. Over time, the toxic eff ects of these vaccinations had the quality and
functioning of the spinal cord affected in this segment. The
Tonusqualitt in the muscles and in the lumbar thickening was very poor.
This provisional diagnosis has been explained to him; but he refused to be
treated further.
Findings associated with dysfunction of the lumbar thickening of the
spinal cord, are not rare. The three cases presented here are examples of
different types of mechanisms which can trigger a reaction in the spinal
cord. In this case, the reaction consisted of an overload or a shock in specifi
c sensory, motor and autonomic segments of
Nervous system. If the coming of the traumatized area aff erente sensory
input persists, established the shocked spinal cord in the lumbar thickening

Session will continue. If on the other hand, although some kind of
correction stattfi friend, but there is no evidence that the body physiology of
the patient has improved its quality in the traumatized areas, meet these
so-called corrections not what the physiology needs. A before and after
test conducted to help assess the health quality in the areas of relative
health and in the areas of closed circuit are,
valuable insights into the work with the living mechanism of the patient.
The day will come when the patient enters the practice and announced its
mechanism: "I'm fine," A Test of the elementary tools of his body
physiology, namely the functional unit of mobility, motility and fluid Drive will
confirm this statement.. Closed loops are gone and all traumatized units
work toward health before.
The dentist, who developed his sense of touch, to work with the body
physiology of the patient, can also include palpation herausfi ends: When it
comes to a heart attack, carried out at the same time an implosion in the Th
oraxhhle. Watch the first time I was able to in the case of a woman who
in the
Sixties, was treated for relatively minor complaints made and then suffered
a massive heart attack. She survived him and came after for other
treatments in the practice. When I evaluated the quality of function in the
thoracic region, it felt as if the entire wall of the Th ORAX in a fascial
restricted state - a striking change compared to thoracic tone in the chest
before the heart attack. It was like bein pregnant an excessive shock or an
implosion the chest cavity - an implosion, which had to fi nd and treat
disease, so they disappeared and more recovery was possible.

Eff ect. The
Patient experiences no relief. So I go further down and put my hands under
the sacrum - and the thing is completely blocked, it can still go in extension
neither in flexion. To test the movement in this area, I put one hand under
the sacrum and the other arm across the hip legs. While the patient is now
bringing his feet alternately in flexion and extension, I feel like moving the
entire basin as a unit. This means that his sacrum is completely fi xed later
in this pool, because otherwise would be, if he moves his feet, the hip legs
feel the sacrum and how three independently movable from one another
units.
The sacrum was thus blocked in its basin - but where have expressed all
the symptoms of the patient? Above, at the other end. Up there they

In our thinking there is a conscious and unconscious tendency to separate
Cranial Osteopathy from the body Osteopathy. This idea of a separation,
they now may be consciously or unconsciously, we must eliminate from our
minds. It is essential that we remove this dichotomy in our thinking and
understand the body in the science of osteopathy as something whole. He
is from head to foot a functional unit. When it comes to tackle a problem,
one must always consider this issue as something that affects the entire
science of osteopathy.

Dr. Sutherland According to one can, with regard to the direction of
movement, actually feel a difference between the inner and outer layers of
the cranial vault bones. If you watch carefully, the inner layer moving
somewhat differently than the outer. To work with it, you sit there quietly
and gently amplifies the pressure on this Ossifi cation center until nds the
point of balance fi. Still then you hold this point of balance, reads it and

The experience to learn as we go with our minds and our hands by the

membrane is able to take the sphenobasilar mechanism in different
patterns is useful because these patterns clearly a clinical have relevance
for certain types of problems. It is also important to understand these
patterns in the broadest sense. When we go through this pattern of

Let these thoughts of Dr. AT Still use and briefly talk about the role of
osteopathic dysfunction in cause and effect. How manipulate every day or
many times we mobilize the osteopathic dysfunction or dysfunction in our
patients and are thinking that we are doing everything for these cases in
this area of our treatment program, which is possible for us? If we would

way of handling this case with effects and causes.

symptoms of a problem, but does not purport to change the cause. This
also applies to the mere manipulation or mobilization of an osteopathic

the symptom complex for some time. If this patient then the

Balanced membrane voltage
Revised version of a lecture recorded on tape held
1976 in a basic course of the Sutherland Cranial Teaching Foundation in
Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
If a load leads to a dysfunction pattern, keep the membranes of this stress
pattern upright. The result is that the "normal" fulcrum is pushed over to the
dysfunction point, ie the point at which the field was gone in a dysfunction.
Within this pattern dysfunction there is a point of balanced membrane
tension. There is a Fulkrumpunkt, a relative point of stillness around which
to organize all Krft e. By bringing all these Krft e in balance, then the
mechanism goes through a still point, a Fulkrumpunkt, a moment of silence.
While this still point, the fulcrum shifts back towards the so-called normal
pattern of this man - towards the Sutherland Fulkrums - and the result is the
correction that is possible on this day. Through this process, changing the

How to use the principle of balanced membrane tension? Suppose you

appearance dysfunction. We initiated this Torsionsmuster, admits that it is
in the full range of motion, it stops then gently in this area and does not
allow that it goes back to the neutral state. While you hold it there, it goes

At the beginning of life the cranium is still trying to develop a structure.
The plates of the Ossa frontalia and parietal bones arise from connective
tissue and are connected with each other membranous. The bones of the
skull base are preformed from cartilage. At birth, there are 11 small pieces
of this arising from cartilage bone: four parts in the occipital bone, three in
Os sphenoid and two each in the temporal bones. This bone portions are
connected by cartilage zones with each other and by the reciprocal tension
membrane with its three sickles and its lower tacking ungspol the sacrum.
Over time, if the Ossifi mature cation centers and grow together, these
eleven different units are in fours: Os sphenoid, occipital bone and the two
temporal bones. Just think of all the fascia, all the connective tissue
elements, which are attached to the skull base and form the framework of
the body. Think well to the rhythmic fluctuation of the cerebrospinal fluid
and the 8 to 12 times per minute stattfi Ndende movement (the structures)
of the center line and the bilateral (structures) in all these developing
tissues. If the base of the skull could develop freely, as would be the
structure function of the body? Then again thinking about the reality: There
is at least minimal, but seriously hufi ger e changes the base of the skull,
caused by Krft e from outside - can prenatally, perinatal, postnatal or later
happen. How then are the patterns of structure and function in baby, child
or adult?
The only joint circuit in the cranium, which operates at birth is, the
connection between the condyles of the occipital bone with the Gelenkfl
surfaces of the atlas. In adults, there is the occipital bone from a bone while
it consists of four parts in the child until the age of seven or nine years: a
basilar which lies anterior to the foramen magnum, the two lateral Partes,
which limit the foramen magnum side and the posterior occipital squama,
which is connected to the cartilaginous Partes lateral. The condyles
converge anteriorly and diverge posteriorly. When the head of the fetus
passes through the pelvis at birth, can the contractions with a compressive
force that is transmitted uid on Amnionfl, drive the condyles in the articular
facets of the atlas, which in this age of single bony contact and a

of his or her activities of daily living. If you can diagnose the proprioceptive
contact and work in the treatment to restore health in the dysfunctional
tissues, this is a one-to-one relationship between the practitioner and the
inherent vitality of the baby or child.
Another case history illustrates this point: A nine-year-old boy had fallen
a year ago and since then limped. On examination I found a ligamentous
joint dysfunction in the left hip area. In the palpatory examination of rhythmic
external and internal rotation to the right hip e showed healthy but on the
side of this dysfunction foreign and internal rotation were limited or inactive.
The ligamentous joint dysfunction has been corrected and joints with a
renewed investigation of alternating internal and external rotation of both
hips this was equal on both sides. This showed that a recovery towards
health in the left hip joint reaches
had been.

Body physiology plus power factors
This article, the original 1959 Yearbook of the Academy of Applied
Osteopathy (now American Academy of Osteopathy) was published,
was entlichung for Verff in this book largely revised.
In today's literature fi nds a lot of discussion about the effects of force on
the body physiology. All traumatic events require that you analyze what is
going to happen to the body physiology and what course of action you must
now apply to the daraufh treat in problems identified. However, it is also
important to see this traumatic experience in a different light - namely to
recognize the role played by traumatic force in their relationship with the
body physiology. To illustrate this point, however, one needs first a clear
picture of the body physiology to be - and that can be extracted at least
partially from an explanation of the term s homeostasis. In the first part of
this article will therefore briefly describe this concept, while it comes to some
of the principles in the second part, which involved
must be to understand the role force in cooperation with the body
physiology.
Homeostasis
In his book Th e Wisdom of the Body Walter B. Cannon perfected the
theory eorie and work of Claude Bernard in relation to the processes of selfregulation in the body and gave the whole thing the name of homeostasis,
what he described as "a tendency towards uniformity or stability in the
normal conditions of the body
Organism "defi ned. The Th eorie homeostasis can with the principles of
AT Stills osteopathischem concept are compared; the similarity is off
Obviously.
Cannon begins with the perception of instability. His goal is to
understand how the body can remain stable at all. Homeostasis is the body
principle, which refers to the automatic stability, the body constantly I-277
only references to the state of the body at the time of sampling. Carrying
out the test a few hours later by, the body has developed a whole new set
of quantitative and qualitative values. The fault lies in the instruments
themselves. In order to be accurate and reliable, an instrument must
necessarily only have limited adaptability and can in this limitation only
cover a small reaction region, while a number of factors that contribute to
this reaction, remain unaffected.
But the problem is not insurmountable. The practitioner who is willing to
learn about the many parts of the body in relation to their position as well
as to their functional aspect, that is the way you work in the integrated body
has taken a big step towards an understanding of this system. He needs
to know
where in this scheme scaffold each part is sitting, and its maximum
Arbeitseffi ciency in his functional status within the framework herausfi ends
by taking the entire physiological functioning of the body as a reference.
And that requires more than just a check of the end products of its
capabilities. So a doctor checked as the passive range of motion of the hip
e not only on the basis of internal and external rotation of the femur relative
to the pelvis. He would also like the body's ability to rotate the hip joint itself
outwards and inwards, so know how it demonstrates the body with its own
self-regulating, reciprocally balanced mechanisms. Exactly what Dr. Still
meant when he understood of anatomy (and physiology) is sprach.47

Body physiology plus power
The aim of this article is part of it, to unite the factors strength and body
physiology together. The physicist and philosopher Victor F. Lenzen
provides in his book Causality in Natural Science a significant interpretation
of the application of force to a specific body - not as an activity or pure
symbol, but as a characteristic external body in the vicinity of a certain body.
He says that a force from the outside is not just something that happens to
the body, but is one of the environmental factors that work with the body.
The body physiology never rests. The "silence" body is never still. His
inner environment is basically fl uous and constantly on the move. Any
external force is therefore added to a moving mechanism is inside. The
body physiology is a collection of living cells, bathed in moving liquids
whose biodynamic structure is changed when a force comes together (from
the outside) with the body physiology. Cellular systems assume new
functional models, if power added factors. It comes to subjective and
objective symptoms such as movement limitations, pain, neuralgia,
myositis, fibrositis, ligamentous and membranous joint dysfunction and
other disorders. As long as the force are factors since that body physiology
has to compensate for its normal physiological function this growth. The
patient must include factors that force in any arbitrary activity and at every
involuntary activity in its internal milieu with every move that he makes.
Which has been written into the structure and function of its cells, in its
homeostatic mechanism.
My current opinion is that this force factors that are, so to speak driven
into the body physiology, wearing a wavelike motion in the liquid matrix and
each cell. This will in turn recorded by the peripheral nervous system and
this impression in the nervous system is part of the pattern of the CNS. Is
he strong enough, the CNS receives this data, and then reappear in the
commands erent eff in the motor system, enter the trophic system and the
autonomic nervous system. The whole mechanism has a new feature
pattern geschaff s, which corresponds to the body physiology plus power
factors. All this is in addition to the local injuries that had to endure the body
and are usually the only thing that will be treated by a doctor.
Cellular Intelligence is a recognized quality of all biological tissue; and I281
Instead of the diagnostic process to test the stressed area related to
limitations in the functioning and disturbing the patient, the practitioner
should reverse this process. The area is anatomically and physiologically
accommodated as possible in the position in which he feels most
comfortable. Since in the course of most accidents, a force has acted on
the patients in him is then to fi nd, induces the practitioner while he seeks
to focus the maximum effi ciency, a degree of compression - but not so
much that it interferes with the physiological action this tissue, but enough
to work with tissues when you are looking for their new equilibrium baseline.
This is a part of that Tonusqualitt, of which I spoke in the last section. The
whole point is to go to the focus of the most comfortable position, but not
look up to what extent the area is limited, but to read the Tonusqualitt the
maximum effi ciency. Tissues are telling the story.
An example: A woman who had put in a car accident with total loss her
leg under her body was positioned according to their accident history - now
the Tonusqualitt and the physiological function of her injured leg was
almost as good as in the other leg, especially if a moderate compression
was added thereto, which corresponded to the force of sudden
Gestopptwerdens. The same applies to other similar cases. Each sample
shall be considered individually for each patient and for each added force
vector. It is really noticeable how this added power to dissolve factors, if
the injured areas were set precisely in their anatomical and physiological
position. To position it so that the physiological function patterns are
brought to the point where this Sichauflsen and Sichverteilen the force can

is that only the basic body physiology remains inherent in the injured areas.

Case 1: A man in his mid-thirties. He suffered for 18 months to shoulder
pain, a Brachialisneuralgie and repeated acute movement restrictions of the
neck and had the usual for these complaints local dysfunction who were
treated three or four times. Although the treatment did every time some
relief, but a few hours after the problems were there again. Finally came
out that he, just before all these problems began, its 125 kg engine of his
car after repair alone
had again lifted into the body. Thanks to this information we found to be
the main problem, which upheld everything, it was dissolved in two
treatments and he was even years later symptom-free. In his case, the
power of his effort when lifting the sacrum between the two Ossa Ilia had
blocked, namely at the level of S2. However, there was no restriction of the
movement of Ilia in relation to the sacrum to the sacroiliac joints. With the
loss of free movement and the integrated function of the sacrum between
the Ilia were the paraspinal muscles and ligaments, including those that
extend to the shoulder girdle, limited in their built-in function, and when he
used these structures randomly, there was always runs auchendem stress.
By the force was dissolved vector caused by the raising of dysfunction and

Case 2: A twenty year-old woman had a past in one year
Car accident a complicated fracture of the left ankle suffered. Even after
its apparent healing they still suffered during the day at a generalized
Swelling of the left leg, from the foot to the pelvis, at night, however, the
symptoms subsided.
When examining showed ligamentous joint
dysfunctions in the right sacroiliac area and in the hip joint, knee, ankle and
foot, and indeed throughout internal rotation dysfunctions.
Eight
osteopathic treatments with the aim to correct these various dysfunctions,
brought a certain reduction of the pattern and an improvement of symptoms
and swelling, but the necessary satisfactory progress did not show up. In
the ninth treatment told the patient that they have slept at the time of impact
on the backseat. I asked them to take the former position on the treatment
table, and she curled up in the right side position together and produced the
entire pattern of internal rotation for all the in symptom complex aff enes
structures. The car was driven at about 50 km / h of a bridge pier and the

hospital, he was treated twice a week to resolve the shock in his tissues
and his body physiology. It took almost a month, until it shocked body

that their normal repair mechanisms - now freed from the burden of the
additional force factors - were able again to fulfill their job completely.

number of each 50-kilo sacks raised while his lower back so damaged that
it was still wrong. Worn down by his constant Eingeschrnktsein the man
was about to leave to stiffen the aff enes area in an operation. His
radiographs showed the following findings: a spondylolisthesis first degree,
a pronounced spondylarthrosis the lumbosacral segments with an almost
complete fusion of the front edges of the fifth en Lumbarwirbelkrpers and
the first sacral segment and a marked degeneration of the intervertebral
disc in the fifth en space, which in itself by a strong contraction this area
showed.
Over the next five months he underwent a total of 28 treatments and after
five months of treatment per month. During this period, there was a
complete resolution of his limitation. He could ride, win a 100-meter race
against his son and draw buckets full of sand from a well on his ranch. After
all this was accomplished, he was sent to another radiologist to follow. The
report of the radiologist was a duplicate of the first findings; Nevertheless,
his symptoms did not occur again in the last six years. Of course, the man
continues to confront all complaints potential of a congenital unstable spine

can do much to bring areas where a reversal is possible to work again.
The following is a letter that Dr. Becker wrote to a colleague on Sept. 4,
1981:
Regarding: body physiology plus power
factors Dear Doctor,
To answer your question, I have read the article again after twenty years.
Although he is too wordy and redundant in many ways, but his basic
message to Th ema body physiology plus power factors applies today as it
was when it was written. However, it is necessary to briefly out
why it was written.
The first part of the article on "homeostasis" can be summed up as the
fact that in the body physiology structure function and functional structure
are interdependent and their own internal processes. Besides there are the
arbitrary mechanisms of the body and the rhythmic involuntary mechanisms
that work to flexion with external rotation and extension to be created en
with internal rotation, in every cell of the body,
from head to toe.
Against this background, I want to emphasize something related to
palpation: I spent ten years at the palpatory skills that one needs at
meaning produce in normally well-integrated and stable people usually greater anxiety
than injuries of body parts.
"From this perspective, the emotional aspects are an important part of whiplash. They
do not depend on the circumstances now and are in no signifi cant relationship with
previous psychiatric disorders. " 53
This succinct report describes the situation very clear and serves to
emphasize some of the already mentioned in this article aspects: the
integers

What happens with the venous drainage of all these important nerve
centers? What happens with the venous drainage of the eye sockets? The
motility of the nervous system usually has its own rhythm. With a terminal
filum and the pia mater, which are limited in the sacro-coccygeal region, but
there are further functional limitations within the central nervous system.
Is it any wonder that these patients are anxious, have depression, appear
hyperexcitable and distraught? Some may tell you that they feel that their
eyes would be drawn out of the eye sockets or pressed into it. Is
considering a blocked dural membrane and an insufficient
not easy to understand the venous drainage, why?
Another such limitation is the disturbance of the normal fluctuation
pattern of cerebrospinal fluid - a serious pathological process leading to
dysfunction and as serious as the venous stasis.

within the craniosacral mechanism in the normalization of the patient. A

pattern and the Tonusqualitt the dural membrane and corrects for
whiplash always runs retenden membranous joint dysfunctions.
Yes, psychological factors play a major role in whiplash. They are effects
of physical factors - factors so that contribute reversed to maintain the
psychological consequences. Diagnosing and treating the physical factors
brings hufi g a major breakthrough in solving not only the psychological
impact, but also the pathological physiology. In my personal experience,
these symptoms disappear quickly when the normal physiological motility
of the central nervous system, the normal mobility of the surrounding
membranes as well as the fluctuation of the cerebrospinal fluid is restored.

Tonusqualitt the fascial pump and the muscular activity of the body, to
return the fluids through the veins and lymphatic vessels. If these pumps
just "chronic pain patients"; they have never been and there will never be.
Your limitations are effects that can be diagnosed and treated; and thanks
to the potential reversibility of the pathology occurs in a large percentage of
patients to a considerable extent to a recovery towards more normal
function. This automatically brings out the negative classifi cation as a
"chronic psychosomatic" I say this because I too was often very surprised
when it came to the patient well again. and of course the patient was
relieved when he discovered that he was recovering from long-lasting
symptoms.
I also had my failures, primarily due to lack of diagnostic skills, but even
if I had too little time for the necessary corrective changes. It takes time to
crank the engine in some of these long-lasting static Faszienpumpen; But
if they will finally come to life, the recovery to a new level of health is
irrefutable.

TER for this one individual that should be evaluated by the practitioner to
determine the baseline of health for the purpose of diagnosis and treatment.
The health that have a man or a woman in her sixties, is off Obviously
different from that of a man or a woman in her twenties. The physical
characteristics of a body which is long and slender, are different from those
of a short and stocky body. The impact of past illnesses and injuries that
have occurred during a life, of which the patient recovered well and he has
well compensated, are all a part of the overall pattern of health for this
individual. All of these factors belong to the findings of the baseline.
Let us now consider the various body systems in detail: The connective
tissue system is a framework of multiple layers, ribbons and
feinstgestalteten mechanisms by millions and trillions rooms where sit the
working cells of the body. It is a living system that has a Tonusqualitt,
health or ill health expresses so that the palpating hands of the examining
practitioner they can detect. In connective tissue, the system of muscles
and bones sitting.
The skeletal system is comparable to a vibrant, finely-designed Mobile.
These include the shapes and contours of the individual bones of the foot
as well as the 22 bones that make up the cranial mechanism. Each bone is
articulated with its neighboring bone or several bones, so that the entire
skeletal system, extremely eff does its job during the time spent by the
person on earth ectively. Throughout the entire life are all in motion, from
head to toe. The body muscular systems, together with the connective
tissue fascia that she with the skeletal system
connect a scaffold that serves the coordinated movement of the individual.
There are other muscular systems in the body, which serve to maintain the
internal functioning of life: the cardiovascular, the kostorespiratorische,
gastro intestinal and urogenital system. These systems of muscles and
bones have a vibrant Tonusqualitt that is felt for the diagnostic and
therapeutic hands of the practitioner, and can be evaluated as part of the
baseline of the health of the individual. There are many other soft tissue
systems in the body; This includes all viscera. The central, peripheral and
autonomic nervous system are also counted to the soft tissues. They form
a vast communications network that serves the functional processes
throughout the body.

Flexionskurve above and below the range of abgefl eighth place. The
junction regions of the various scoliotic voltage patterns are particularly
empfi ndlich regarding whiplash-related disorders.
With regard to the physiological dynamic structure and function in their
functional relationships are mutually interchangeable. We have already
briefly discussed the structural aspects. The physiological function of the
human body can be roughly divided into two main categories. One is the
arbitrary use of the body in its everyday activities. If you're healthy, you use
all body resources for the most part unaware of the diverse activities of daily
living, started when you get up in the morning, then goes to work, play and
then go to bed to sleep through the night, so that one of is the next day
ready. The musculoskeletal system, the digestive system, the respiratory
system, the cardiovascular system and all other systems do their work
easily and professionally.
There is another function complex, the friend stattfi in the body. Again,
this is for the overall health of the people is of fundamental importance. It is
the primary respiratory mechanism, which can be divided into five parts: the
inherent motility of the brain and spinal cord, the fluctuation of the
cerebrospinal fluid Cerebrospinal, the mobility of intracranial and intraspinal
membranes articulated mobility of the cranial bones and the involuntary
mobility of Os sacrum between the ilia Ossa. All these five units work
together in a harmonious, rhythmic patterns of the overall function; they are
inseparable in their inherent functional capacity that allows them to function
throughout the body physiology, from head to toe. This simple, rhythmic
motion (alternating flexion / external rotation and extension / internal
rotation) fi nd place in the whole body mechanisms, no matter what other
patterns show at a structural analysis: the scoliotic curves, the different
types of physique and all other data.
It's a small movement that is not easy to notice when the practitioner has
not yet trained its Palpationsfhigkeit. But it's there and you can
fi nd when the practitioner down on his sense of touch to their level of
functioning. Its importance lies on the one hand in the fact that it is part of
the normal physiology, and secondly that this rhythmic motion helps to
maintain the normal health of the individual. So this is the individual who
will be now exposed to a disease caused by a whiplash sprain.
I-307
gen content of all body cells, this power exposed. This reduces the chronic
Eff ectiveness of all structures, which are surrounded by the fascia. Since
the fascia virtually envelop all somatic structures in the body, this may be a
factor contributing to the fact that a complete recovery can not stattfi ends.
In many cases, but the whiplash-energy releases during or shortly after
the accident entirely, and only acute, traumatic injuries and decompensated
physiological body mechanisms will need a treatment to restore health.
However, there is also a certain percentage of cases where it does not
dissolve, and is an additional factor in the physiological function of the body
of the model of health of the patient. You will then become a part of the
body physiology, with which the patient must deal when his body strives to
heal.
In patients, the presence of this unidirectionally acting force field to fi nd,
is more difficult the longer ago the accident. In some cases, however, even
I could find another 35 years after the car accident. One must not
necessarily fi nd, but you have to understand that it may be present in the
functional processes of the fascial body physiology necessarily. His
presence is a medical condition, which can be observed by means of
palpation, and it contributes to persistent fascial dysfunctions.
Technology for detecting an unresolved whiplash-energy
field:
A patient who has been exposed to a frontal impact in an accident, you
can take the supine position on the treatment table. The practitioner seated
at the head and lets his hands slide under the torso of the patient to make
contact there. The patient's weight is sufficient to secure a good contact
with the hands of the practitioner. The hands are not lazily under the patient.
The practitioner projected his sense of touch through his hands in order to
get an overall impression of the whole body. Then
he tempted to feel specifi cally oraxwand to front Th. While continuing
projected his sense of touch, the practitioner should close his eyes and the
Feel vector presence or absence of a unidirectional directed force, which
runs through the whole body anteriorly. To close your eyes, is not absolutely
necessary, but may increase the sense of such a phenomenon. If there is
such a force vector is, it will make about one minute noticeable in the body
physiology of the patient, and indeed towards the ceiling.

produce a Krft owned hypersurface ection of the neck and spine; Again,
perhaps many anterior and posterior structures are injured. An impact from
the side often creates a complex exercise and injury patterns.
While the car accident, there are the added factor of a unidirectional field
directed force, in which the moment of inertia of hundreds of kilos of mass
to move through the body physiology towards the point of impact. These
vectors in force field do not follow the normal planes of movement of the
ligamentous joint mechanisms of midline structures in the body physiology
In this context, "describe Tiger" old injuries, illnesses old and old patterns
of a physiological disorder have been compensated by the people. Patients
have many months or years felt good and had no serious problems with
these s problems that can again come to life, however, if the person has
had a car accident.
Hufi g is then the patient who comes to you complain - not about the
Fact that he had a car accident, but that this created many years ago and
so far held control problem now again making trouble. He has tried it as
before with the same treatment, but this time the problem is not to. If you
then raises his history, you will find that he had a car accident - a few weeks,
a few months or sometimes even a year before it came again woken Tiger
to annoy him. Not with a lively Tiger is the problem: the whiplash, with all its
consequences on the primary respiratory mechanism, this tiger disturbed,
and is now back to life, tearing around in this patient and the I-313
express in a full physiological movement restricted. When it comes to
membranous joint dysfunction in the cranial mechanism, the fluctuation of
the cerebrospinal fluid may be disturbed. This in turn prevents adequate
transmutation of nerves in the central nervous vitality
vous system, a major factor that is necessary for the healing of the injured
in whiplash nervous. The drainage from the brain venous ladders in the
skull becomes more difficult - another factor that contributes to a disease of
the central nervous system.
The cranial dysfunction in case of whiplash include membranous
restrictions of Sutherland Fulkrums and the inner membranous lining of the
skull cup, unilateral or bilateral dysfunctions between occiput and atlas,
dysfunctions of the temporal bone, modifi ed forms a okzipitomastoidalen
dysfunction etc. disorders of the fluctuation of CSF accompany
dysfunctions of the primary respiratory mechanism always; so they are
always present in such cases.
These modifi ed form a okzipitomastoidalen dysfunction is an interesting
point. Here it is not, as usual, produced by a blow to the occiput, which
drives this inward, but. By the sudden train of whiplash-force acting as the
suction cup of a Klempnerpmpels about the deep cervical fascia on the
basilar part of the occiput Your debilitating clinical result may or may not be
as large as in the conventional okzipitomastoidalen dysfunction - but this
depends on the specifi c effect on the brain venous director and the
tentorium in the cranium from.
One limitation of their normal mobility experiences hufi g the reciprocal
tension membrane. This includes the dura lining the skull inside the falx,
the tentorium and spinal dura that envelops the spinal cord and spinal
nerves accompanies each when he leaves the spinal canal through the
intervertebral foramen. As the Sutherland fulcrum is restricted in its entire
normal operating pattern, and the two hlft en the tentorium each at the
Margo sup. petrous have been et heft, this dysfunction can affect each of
the nine cranial nerve, the temporal near the Os by
Run Dura. This in turn may lead to many bizarre symptom pictures. Even
the "sleeves" of dura that envelops each spinal nerve, can exert a restrictive
infl uence, as the restriction of the dura, which triggers a trigeminal
neuralgia in the cranium. The dynamics of this mechanism is that the for
normal metabolism in the nerve function is so important I-315
Extremities are now working against the resistance of a fi xed base in the
basin. Pathological stress in these areas will maintain in his sick, little effi
cient state and the wedged sacrum, with its loss of involuntary flexion and
extension movement, is a major factor in the collapse of the compensatory
homeostatic mechanisms and decompensation of scoliotic voltage pattern.
Since the sacrum forcibly yanked out of its place in the basin as well as
forcibly reset again was in a combined ligamentres and membranous
dysfunction patterns, it immediately loses its ability to act as an
automatically changing to, free-floating fulcrum. The sacrum is now xed at
the level of the second sacral segment in position in the tank fi; the larger
L-shaped portions of the sacroiliac joint are usually not so very aff s. The
upper thoracic vertebrae and the cervical vertebrae areas have lost a
floating fulcrum that existed about 45 to 60 cm from the sacrum. You must
compensate for this loss by they behave more like a whip. Ligaments and
other tissues that are already stressed out because they still need to heal
are now forced to work even harder to maintain the dynamic function of the
spine.
In order to illustrate the whole, it can be the comparison between a
Tree and stuck in the ground staff use: The tree can yield from wind and
shows no stress because its roots provide him sufficient compensation
capabilities. The driven into the ground rod may indeed turn forward or
backward, but its resistance is much higher due to buried into the ground
portion; he does not have the same elasticity as the root of a tree structure.
Just making a fi by whiplash xiertes sacrum every movement of the thoracic
or cervical resistance.
Normally, the sacrum moves between the Ossa Ilia involuntarily in flexion
and extension (in the expansion phase of the cranial base, the base of the
sacrum sinks to the bottom and moves anteriorly, while the caudal end
moves posteriorly, in the flexion movement is reversed ). A free sacral
mechanism allows for operation of the trunk and the cervical spine.
However, if the sacral mechanism is restricted in his freedom to move and
work with the Ossa Ilia as a unit, it becomes a fi xed fulcrum that creates a
resistance to the free movement in the trunk and cervical spine. A
restoration of function and mobility of the sacrum is necessary for virtually
all car accidents.
I-317
lenbereichen can feel. If the practitioner with gentle hand he holds these
areas to receive diagnostic information, he will have a feeling as if he were
sitting at the end of a lever which moves with the quiet pattern of
physiological function and the patient's breathing. It feels as if this
movement work from a fi xed base in the basin, which is indeed the case.
Usually when so suspended the Beck mechanism free, conveys a
movement in the cervical and thoracic vertebrae areas not that leverage
end-feeling; you only feel the movement of the local feature in the neck and
Th ORAX. You sensed as a lever-like motion in the neck and chest areas,
you should check the pool on a possibly impacted sacral mechanism
towards.
Treatment in the event of chronic whiplash
The key word for a therapeutic approach is: physiological function. This
applies both for the diagnosis and for the treatment, for all treatment
programs are continuously monitored diagnostic analyzes, of the first to the
last treatment. You need the diagnosis to determine how the pattern of
health in the normal physiological function of the patient is or should be; you
need a diagnosis to determine the pathological anatomical physiological
function, as it is the first office visit or subsequent visits; and you need a
diagnosis to determine the effi ciency of a treatment program in the case of
course, to know when the physiological function of the patient has returned
to health. The treatment of chronic whiplash cases is very complex,
because the physiological function is disturbed in so many different
patterns. You have to consider in diagnosing and treating a lot of the
individual patterns that show up in every case adapt, in these cases.
Sometimes it is in a chronic case difficult to realize that it is based on a
whiplash because the possible restriction patterns are the whole person
subject s and has become over the years a subtle Dysfunktionieren, and
because the focus of individual complaints, any system or may involve a
combination of systems in the body. Mostly the patient brings his current
symptoms are not related to his old, hufi g already forgotten whiplash
experience.
I-319
Mechanism. The sacrum was completely xed between the two Ossa Ilia fi;
it could not move independently of the Ossa Ilia itself, whether forward,
backward, up, down, or otherwise. The normal rocking motion was not
passed on from the pool by the muscles and ligaments. There was simply
no movement - it was blocked. All aff enes muscles were about to dry up -.
"Dried up fields"
We started once a week with a treatment in which only my
Put his hands under his sacrum and worked on this by trying to accept
everything that was found in the entire mechanism - whatever it might be, if
it would have on this sacrum any infl uence, we wanted it to happen. I
compressed the already compressed in sacrum strong enough that it
noticed my presence, and called for it to thus to wake up. For a while
nothing happened. Three months later, I suddenly realized that the sacrum
anfi ng, like a very hard piece of wood instead of behaving like a stone. After
The treatment of chronic whiplash I would now like to explain using the
following four steps:
1.
Deriving brought in with whiplash, unidirectionally-oriented,
non-physiological energy fields throughout the body physiology of
the patient.
2.
Restoring involuntary flexion and extension mobility of the
sacrum between the ilia Ossa and solving a fascial train down in the
pelvis.
3.
Correct specifi ligamentous joint dysfunctions associated with
the car accident.
4.
Reconstructing and returning a compensatory scoliotic
myofascial tension function in an "Easy" -Normalitt for the
individual.
I-323
force for the solution used. From its below the sacrum hand the practitioner
projects his sense of touch towards a balance point, comparable to that
used in the technique for deriving the whiplash-energy fields. In other
words: The practitioner seeks to transform the in his hand lying motionless
in a sacrum sacrum that can go along with the flexion-extension cycle of
moving feet. Its like a bridge over the ASIS of the Ossa Ilia set free arm he
can cooperate by gentle pressure on both spines strengthened in order to
both meet Ilia front and NEN back ff and so give the sacrum space to
resolve its blockage by him. The dentist may also involve the help of the
patient by letting breathe this deep while moving his feet and asked how
the practitioner ensures its point of balance. Let him hold his breath as long
as he can, and then exhale. This can be repeated two to three times him.
This rhythmic Dorsifl ection and extension of the feet and the ff nen of
Beck shell by the dentist will continue until the therapist feels that the pelvic
girdle begins to dissolve as far as ag in this Behandlungst is possible. It
must be achieved no complete solution. The time required for this technique
should not exceed five minutes per treatment. The body physiology will visit
until the next practice and during the follow-up treatment to the problem
work until then its complete dissolution can ends stattfi and friend also
stattfi.
Here is the key to greater susceptibility in the touch of the practitioner in
diagnosis and treatment that he projected his sense of touch of his below
the sacrum hand to the forearm-hand contacts to the SIAS and vice versa
from there on exploiting under the sacrum RURAL hand. In this way he gets
the widest possible understanding of what is happening in the pelvic ring,
while the patient cooperates by moving his feet and / or holding his breath.
To correct the dysfunction diagnosed heard the attentive Mitbedenken all
participating in the infringement proceedings the ligamentous and
membranous joints factors. The correction should be extremely gentle: Man
trying to allow the inner physiological processes show their own infallible
Krft e to solve the dysfunction, while the hand the process only directs and
analyzed under the sacrum. Th rusting and other techniques that use force
are to be stapled strength for this kind of problem. Many of these I-325
the spine areas that had direct contact with specifi c vehicle parts to
ligamentous joint dysfunctions manifest as a result of rapid, spin like
movements of the head and the cervical spine in the loading
movement patterns during the first accident moments.
The practitioner can use any osteopathic technique he mastered well in
order to diagnose this specifi c ligamentous joint dysfunctions and treat. He
should keep in mind the following points: These dysfunctions can in the
cranium, in the entire spine Reten runs up to the sacrum, at the
Ribs and in the extremities. They are caused by trauma and when they
Production was a lot of energy. Therefore, they are of organic and
importance have not only functional character. che the layers transverse
to the height of the dysfunctional region throughout the entire body fascial
surface are above as well as the deeper fascial aff en levels and below the
dysfunction.
In my clinical experience, is achieved by applying dissipative
Techniques to facilitate general myofascial dysfunctions or the liberation
of a wedged sacrum (in cases where you are dealing with one of these
two problems or both) a lot and also promotes the
Ed eyes soft tissue dysfunctions that can include to the specifi c dysfunction
pathology. I use such techniques always in front of a specifi c correction of
each dysfunction. In osteopathic techniques, which you can then apply for
the correction of those specifi dysfunctions, you should be aware of how
extensive the tissue involved, and not just concentrate on mobilizing a
specifi c Gelenkfl che. Attempts at applying the technique to feel how the
correction takes place both across the entire soft tissue as well as in all its
facets.
4. Recovery of compensatory myofascial scoliotic voltage function in an
"Easy" -Normalitt for the individual. The microtrauma in the fascial planes
of the whole body and the production of a specifi c dysfunction pathology
have contributed to the well-compensated scoliotic function between the
sphenobasilar synchondrosis top and the sacrum has collapsed below. In
chronic cases of whiplash decompensation this is not mentioned in the
complaints catalog of patients, however, the practitioner will ends in his
investigation fi when he carefully diagnosed by palpation. A wellcompensated scoliosis is part of normal

Approach to clinical problems
Summary of a text in January 1958th
Before one begins to discuss a clinical Th ema, it is my opinion advisable,
it initially recorded an overall picture before it disappears behind too many
details. The Cranial concept is part of a broader concept - namely the
osteopathic concept as Dr. Andrew Taylor Still had imagined it. Dr. William
G. Sutherland insisted that his work to belong to, which had been started
by Dr. Still. It should never be anything of the general science of osteopathy
Separate.
From Dr. Sutherland all correspondence en his comprehensive
understanding of the cranial concept and of its relationship to osteopathy in
general can be seen. And you can from them even draw more conclusions:
His concept was in its construction holistically, and his tools were firstly the
craniosacral, anatomic-physiologic mechanisms with their ability to function
by itself, and their inherent living quality and to other talent of the
practitioner, these
Mechanisms to elicit knowledge to diagnose and treat can. This type of
thought building requires at least some degree of insight into his totality
before you can remove any parts of it out of context and defi ne or discuss.
The same applies to the writings of Dr. Still.
If one thinks in terms of Dr. Still and Dr. Sutherland, it is important to
Always look people holistically. The physiological processes that represent
normality, and mean the dysfunctions in the processes that disease, are
only one part of the picture. One should always see these items as
something to an overall pattern belonging and classify their place on this
basis. Dr. Still and Dr. Sutherland wrote their works with this holistic
approach in mind. They did not separate the person from their physiological
or disease-related processes. When working with a physiological or
disease-related process they studied, they always kept the whole person
Forefront of your mind. Reference point for their thinking was the man in

Clinical observations
Revised copy of a lecture given in 1976 during a basic course of the
Sutherland Cranial Teaching Foundation in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
I would like to talk about a few things that I have observed in my practice.
Hypertension: Interestingly, it can be established in most cases, soberly
hypertension that the tentorium cerebellum down and seems to be forced
apart. It is relatively fl at and would not be high arch. I have treated a
number of such cases. Such a reciprocal tension membrane must be
trained again to function normally. This is slowly made over time - because,
how many years did it take to develop these essential hypertension? One
can this reciprocal tension membrane but teach slowly, her job is
hochzuwlben rhythmically to get right again, and the essential
hypertension can then control with fewer drugs than usual.
Dyslexia: From time to time you will on children with dyslexia taken en.
Often the parents bring the child because of other complaints to you and
not because it is dyslexic. By the way, they tell then, that it suffers from
dyslexia. You can then complete the treatment in order to help them.
Virtually all children with dyslexia the clinical findings is an intraosseous
dysfunction of the temporal bone, the petrous is turned into a kind of internal
rotation dysfunction while the squama is more or less the way it should be.
When one examines these children, the Os temporale feels almost as if it
had some sort okzipitomastoidale dysfunction, with a traumatic stress in this
tentorium that says that something is wrong here. But it is a intraosseous
dysfunction, usually the right temporal bone, sometimes the left, depending
on the child. With the help of forming Techniken56 and by the Tide of
cerebrospinal fluid down directs the joints of the petrous to the
Occipitomastoid suture and to connect to the squama, be able to

to be alive and to feel good, but it needs as we said six months to one year
of treatment per week to get the results that you want. This treatment is a
complement to their medical setting or other things that you want to do.
Brachialisneuropathie with blocked sacrum: As I have mentioned on
other occasions, one should make sure to whiplash that the sacrum float
freely along with the rest of the mechanism. I want to emphasize again
here therefore, because the sacrum not normally makes attention through
complaints. Almost always have to look for it. Patients are not saying that
it hurts them down there, but they have pain above.
The following case, in which the cause, however, was no whiplash,
illustrates this: A young man had on both sides for 15 months a
Brachialisneuropathie. When I touched his neck and his shoulders,
herauszufi correspondent to why he had a Brachialisneuropathie, I felt like
I was at the other end of a lever; because no matter what I, as I sat quietly,
at this end did: I was moved around. Now, when I'm at the end of a lever
which moves, then it must give off somewhere Obviously a Fulkrumpunkt,
which is relatively quiet. So I went to the sacrum, to investigate it, and yes,
it was in his respiratory function completely blocked. When I questioned
him further, I found out the reason. The guy loved his sports car. However,
he weighed only 75 kilos - and when he lifted his engine one day to return
him to the car, he blocked his sacrum.
The first two times, when he came into practice, I tried ends herauszufi
what was going on. The third time, I found the sacrum and solved it. The
fourth time the sacrum was free, and the fifth en time there was no more
Brachialisneuropathie. Point. So that was the end of this case. Since his
sacrum fi xed and was blocked, he had the top of the shoulder girdle do
everything against resistance. Your pool should give actually, if you move
your arms. Due to the loss of this micro-movement he had every time he
moved, move both: the Ossa ilia and sacrum, and his nerves. Brachiales
were in continuous voltage. When triggered the sacrum and could move
freely now, the tension disappeared in the brachial fascia to the plexus. The same situation obtains incidentally also a chronic whiplash upright.
Compression of the skullcap: It is possible to get a massive, traumatic

so is. Then, when you worked with him, her revitalized that energy field
that its vitality is such that it moves back toward the normal 110 volts.
You can also leave the superfl uid energy ABFL ow if it is a burden for
the patient. Here's a practical example: A man came to treat in my practice
and I could feel that his mechanism basically had 110 volts. It was a
relatively normal mechanism in many ways, but one had the feeling that he
somehow hovered at 110 volts, so it was an undecided mechanism which
said, "I would love to work, but I'm not so sure it is in this moment is a good
idea "When I treated him -. I do not remember exactly how, probably with a
CV4 technique - I was in contact with the fluid drive and the reciprocal
in the neck region and from there to Heart extending cardiac plexus. The
parasympathetic innervation passes through the base of the skull. A
cautious attention to the
Area of the temporal bone and the occipital bone is attached: The interplay
between these two bones should be such that the vagus nerve can do his
job.

The urogenital system
Let's now move on to the other issue that you have incorporated into our
discussion: a young woman with recurrent inflammation of the bladder.
The concern that it could develop kidney problems, make it the candidate
for the use of suppressive antibiotics. We need to think about the basic
anatomy of these regions. There is the Nn here. Splanchnics supplying
the parasympathetic part and a part of the sympathetic
Lead innervation with it. The lower thoracic and upper lumbar two Nn.
Spanchnici lead the sympathetic innervation to the kidney and the
suprarenal structures as well as the sympathetic innervation to the bladder
and other organs of the pelvis.
We must also bear in mind something else: The kidneys are moving up
and down with breathing and make every body movement of patients. They
ride on the surface che the crura of the diaphragm and the psoas muscle
on both sides of the lumbar spine. Uterus and bladder sit on the pelvic
diaphragm.
Strictly speaking there are in the body several diaphragms: the pelvic
diaphragm which closes the basin below, then your diaphragm, which the
Th ORAX and abdomen separated, and finally a cranial diaphragm which
bilateral from the
Tentorium is that the Grohirnhlft s underlying of the
Cerebellum separated. All three diaphragms are lowered by inhalation
and stand out on the exhale. You know that it is the diaphragm so, and
the same applies to the pelvic diaphragm and the cranial diaphragm.
The pelvic diaphragm is in many of these cases that we are discussing
here, lashed, particularly in young women. It is pushed down so that it does
not move rhythmically up and down. The pelvic diaphragm may be held on
one side or bilaterally below. This is the result of births or gynecological
surgery s and makes a function of the pelvic diaphragm impossible. In such
a case, bladder, vagina, and other organs to be disturbed in their fascial
sheaths up to a certain extent - they can not so move with the breathing
cycle, as planned.
Because healthy tissue can ward off bacterial infections of all kinds, we
tailor our treatment from it, the nerve supply that controls the blood supply
to these organs, and restore to allow the movement, which ends should
stattfi in these areas. The treatment to solve the pelvic diaphragm is
relatively simple. Dr. Howard Lippincott wrote in 1949 an article on I-343
the side under the fifth en lumbar. When bladder problems there is always
a dysfunction or a voltage in the range between the fifth lumbar vertebra
and the sacrum s. There is a fabric tension throughout the entire area of
the fifth lumbar vertebra and the sacrum s. Interestingly, one achieves a
considerable control over the irritability of the bladder, when redeemed (by
having a hand under the sacrum and the other under the Proc. Spinosus of
the fifth en lumbar vertebra to see what's going on) the voltage when So in
this area for a while working until you can feel how the function in the sense
restores that they can do what they want.
When your grandmother visited us a few years ago, they had such a
pronounced bladder incontinence, that she had to wear insoles. She was
six weeks with us, I treated every day and made this nothing more than
what I've just described. At the end of that time, she did not need any more
deposits and was for two to three hours free of urination. After her
departure crept gradually regain their old incontinence, but of course it was
a long standing, chronic problem, and she had a long-term treatment
needed. The idea is certainly to approach at a urinary incontinence in this
area and to achieve a correction of the mechanism between the fifth lumbar
vertebra and the sacrum s.
These urogenital problems, we also go up and solve the crura of the
diaphragm on both sides, as it is described in the cardiac event. This
achieves two things: Dissolve the tension not only in the C Rura, but also
in the psoas muscle, and it creates a stimulating infl uence on the autonomic
innervation of the kidneys and pelvis. While you are under the sacrum and
the fifth lumbar s, one automatically tones the nerves extending therefrom,
the parasympathetic innervation of the pelvis.
I believe that this simple method, the so-called pelvic floor lift, releasing
the mechanism of the fifth en lumbar vertebra and the sacrum, and the
release of the crura and the psoas to support the freedom of movement of
the kidneys and the autonomic innervation - to normalization chronic
bladder problems, or at least contribute something to bring help. Examine
the diaphragm pelvis and lumbosacral junction with these people very
carefully and work on it defi nitely something to solve in both areas. See if
that does not make a difference in the symptoms of patients and the need
to use drugs. A small report later I would be happy.

simply the hip joint in each leg to herauszufi ends, in which direction would
rotate it (see Figure 24 on page I-208). I check out the good leg and fi nd
whether it preferred indoor or external rotation. Then I check the leg in
which the strain has happened at the knee, and fi nd out whether it wants
to go in an opposite pattern, because usually preferred in each patient the
external rotation one side, the other side internal rotation.
If I z. B. a dysfunction pattern with internal rotation fi nd, I bring it
deliberately in the direction of this dysfunction pattern, with the same hand
position as shown in Figure 24, until I feel how it dissolves in the pelvic area.
Then I feel that the pattern has declined and now again equal to the
normality of the subject patient. This correction of the hip joint dysfunction
support at a relatively slight knee injury in which there was no broad
ligaments, the healing of the knee. It does this by looking at the long
Lever the hamstrings and quadriceps adjusted again. Then the knee
problem can get started and even perform even better correction if it does
not have to work the field with a partial dysfunction in the hip. So it is
advisable for all knee injuries to hip check area to the normal pattern that
this man is true for the basin, herauszufi ends and any existing dysfunctions
of internal or external rotation correct.

Tacking ung at the junction with the falx and is also attached to the right
and left edges of the temporal bones petrsen. Dr. Sutherland called the
three sickles: the left tentorium, the right tentorium and the falx. In sinus
problems we actually have to do it with membranous joint Trains to which
the falx or the tentorium belong.
The tentorium is both Partes petrous temporal bone attached, and the
temporal bones are in turn connected to the zygomatic bones. Restrictions
of the full breath movement of the right temporal bone restrict the
movements of the zygomatic bone on the right side, and thus the pumping
motion of the "plumber's friend," the one of the right maxillary sinus.
Limitations of the physiological expression of falx interfere with normal
motility and mobility of its anterior tacking ments to the crista galli of the
ethmoid bone and the sphenoid bone. The sphenoid is for normal loading
mobility of virtually all fourteen bones of the face responsible. Almost all
the bones that make up the face, have a direct connection with the sphenoid
bone or a clear, indirect connection with its motility. Whatever happens with
the sphenoid, will therefore have a direct infl uence on all facial bones.
During normal breathing cycle when the Synchondrosis sphenobasilar
moved in flexion, the sphenoid bone raises its rear connection to the
occipital bone; the front end of the os sphenoid descends slightly, and the
rear end of Os ethmoid lowers with him while lifting his front area. Directly
below the perpendicular lamina of ethmoid sits the vomer. The rocking
motion of the sphenoid and the ethmoid produces movement in the vomer;
and if the sphenoid dives forward, infl uenced the
Movement of the sphenoid sinus Vomer by the rostrum. In addition, the
lateral sides are each frontal bone by the big, square, frontosphenoidalen
joints taken outwards. When inhaled they are taken laterally, at the
exhalation medially. Due to the expansion capability of the bone itself, the
various sinus wide also ethmoidales laterally during inhalation phase and
medially in the exhalation phase. This self-reciprocating-forth movement of
the sinus and frontal ethmoidal during inhalation and exhalation acts like a
pump for their normal drainage.
In view of all these operations, we start with the diagnosis and treatment

least since. To test the effects of the prosthesis, I asked him to use them
again, while his involuntary movable mechanism using
Palpation was monitored. There was an immediate reaction. His
involuntary
Craniosacral mechanism and its fascial tissue went into a pattern of
Extension and internal rotation and the operation phase of the rhythmic
involuntary flexion and external rotation was not possible. All this happened
within 30 to 60 seconds. He took the prosthesis back out and you could
feel the alternating involuntary movement ceased again, in a rhythmic
health cycle of 8 to 10 times per minute. I advised him daraufh in, no longer
to use the prosthesis.
With supportive treatments that have been carried out irregularly over a
period of several months because the patient lived far away, he gradually
became his grand mal epilepsy seizures and other restrictions going. One
wonders: What would have been the result of his health pattern,
if he continues to use this prosthesis? He himself answered this question
with "death", and thus physiologically correct. When you die, go the body
mechanisms in extension and internal rotation.
This extreme and unusual case illustrates well as the less traumatic
cases, which I shall describe, the need to know and understand, which
means health in the involuntary anatomically-physiological mobility and
function of the face. The face is the front portion of the craniosacral
mechanism and is prior to the neurocranium. For craniosacral mechanism
include the linkages of the os sphenoid, the Os occipital, temporal bone,
the os frontal or Ossa frontalia, and the parietal bones that existing in a vast
round-fro movement mobility of reciprocal tension membrane and in a oneand-out of roles existing motility of the central nervous system, the
fluctuation of the cerebrospinal fluid and the involuntary movement of the
sacrum between the ilia Ossa.
The face make up 15 bones: the ethmoid bone, two zygomatic bones,
two
Ossa Maxillaria, two palatine bones, the vomer, two nasal bones, two Ossa
lacrimalia, the two lower conchae and the mandible. In the technical sense
the Os ethmoid part of the skull base, but it will mitbesprochen here. There
is also the face 79 articulated connections, the neurocranium 43. The
mechanisms of involuntary mobility of the face - except controlled from the
occiput and the temporal bone mandible - controlled by the sphenoid. The
sphenoid is a part of the main shaft in the base of the skull, is on I-353
Considering the complexity of facial mechanisms, one realizes that there
are many ways, such as membranous joint dysfunctions in the posterior
region may interfere with the inherent, fundamental involuntary mobility of
the face. I spoke with a dentist about this problem, and he mentioned the
list of procedures that can lead to traumatic results that an improperly
executed balance of occlusion, Massenverkronung of teeth, an improperly
other four centers appear about four months. The Ossifi ossify cation
centers for the laminae of the medial Proc. pterygoidei from BindegeI-361
together with the overall pattern of the reciprocal tension membrane
because there is the time of birth no sutures in the skull. Therefore, one has
to almost the end of the first year of life time to treat the disturbed Alae of
the sphenoid, before they become a part of the permanent structure of the
sphenoid bone and less likely to change.
The orbit is formed by seven bones: the sphenoid with its
Alae majores and minores, the ethmoid, the lacrimal bone, the maxilla, the
zygomatic bone, the frontal bone and the small Proc. orbital of the palatine
bone. It is the availability and ease of normal articulated relationship
between these units, which leads to a normal function of the eye socket and
contributes to a normal function of the eyeball. If one of these units is
disturbed, this can contribute to a pathology of the eye socket or the eyeball.
Within the orbit there are 12 muscles: the six extraocular muscles and the
ciliary muscle, the M. pupil dilator, the M. pupillae sphincter, the orbicularis,
the M. orbital and the levator palpebrae superioris. To the six extraocular
muscles is what the partial or complete paralysis of the eye muscles. Aside
from the inferior oblique, which originates from the medial side of the facies
orbitalis the maxilla, have opticum all originated in the area of the foramen.
The superior oblique muscle passes from its origin at the optic foramen by
a trochlea, an arrangement such as a pulley, on the medial side of the facies
of the orbital frontal bone. All six muscles have their attachment to the sclera
of the eyeball, near the front pole. The oculomotor nerve supplies the
following muscles: the inferior oblique, inferior rectus, medial rectus,
superior rectus, levator palpebrae and the sphincter of the pupil. The
trochlear nerve supplies the superior oblique, and the abducens nerve
supplies the lateral rectus muscle.
Because of these anatomical features of "Krumme branch" pattern or
traumatic impact on the Alae minores of Os can sphenoidale the majority of
the muscles of the eyeball affect the result of trauma of the frontal bone, the
capacity for action of the superior oblique hinder, and a trauma that meets
the maxilla may interfere with the inferior oblique. Rarely, however, trauma
is limited to a bone unit and usually its consequences on all bony
components of the orbit transfer. Virtually every child who comes with a
seriously de plagiocephaly to us for diagnosis will have some kind of eye
muscle paralysis or a refraction problem.
