Sacro Occipital Technique (SOT) is a method of chiropractic based
primarily on the identification and treatment of 3 bodily systems
(called Categories): The cranial sacral respiratory system, the weight
bearing system and the function of the lumbar spine. SOT was developed
by Dr. M. B. DeJarnette, an osteopath and chiropractor. The cranial
sacral mechanism is a combination of integrated functions that support,
nourish and enhance the performance of the nervous system as it
controls bodily functions. This article presents the three SOT
categories, information on chiropractic manipulative reflex technique
(CMRT) and cranial techniques as well as some published research
related to SOT.
