Osteopathic system developed by William Garner Sutherland based on rhythmic mobility of cranial bones, dura mater and sacrum within the Primary Respiratory Mechanism (PRM).
Set of cranial osteopathic techniques working directly on the reciprocal tension membranes (falx cerebri, falx cerebelli, tentorium cerebelli, diaphragma sellae) via precise bony contacts on the skull and sacrum, to normalize intracranial membranous tensions and restore the Primary Respiratory Mechanism.
Gentle therapeutic approach derived from Sutherland's cranial osteopathy, popularized by John Upledger, focused on releasing restrictions of the craniosacral system.
Therapeutic approach developed by John E. Upledger integrating CranioSacral Therapy with processes of releasing physical and emotional traumas memorized in body tissues (energy cysts), allowing the body to complete and integrate emotional responses initially interrupted during shock or trauma.
Chiropractic approach developed by DeJarnette based on the relationship between the sacrum and occiput, using positioning blocks and dysfunction categories to treat the whole body.
