Q

General goals of craniosacral treatment?

A
  • reduce venous congestioni
  • mobilize articular restrictions
  • balance WSWBS
  • enhance reduced force rate and amplitude of CRI

Q

Temporal bone has a torsion, what could potentially result from this?

A
  • Bell’s palsy
  • also potentially trigeminal dysfunction as the ganglion rests in meckels cave on superior surface of petrosal ridge of temporal bone

Q

How do you do occiptal condylar decompression?

A

Contact as close to the foramen and condyles as possible and add slight OA flexion and apply traction pulling the occipital tissues in a posterior and lateral direction

Q

BMT how to?

A
  • gently exaggerate membranous asymmetry until balance is noted
    • CRI moves against force but you resist without changing force and position
    • hold until CRI stops at still point

Q

Frontal lift how to?

A
  • engage lateral inferior edge of frontal bone and apply anteior force with anterior rotation until release is felt
17
Q

Frontal lift uses?

A
  • restricted frontal mobility
  • augment SBS flexion
  • frontal headaches
  • sinus congestion
  • ped dev issues
18
Q

parietal lift how to and uses?

A
  • parietal traction until superior elastic release is felt
  • TMJ
  • HA
  • Decompress squamosal suture
  • compression from clinching griding of teeth
19
Q

Pterigosphenopalatine ganglion inhibition?

A
  • posterior and lateral to molars medial to the pterygoid
  • direction of force is superior slightly medial and posterior with medial rotation
  • hold and wait for releaxation
20
Q

pterigosphenopalatine ganglion inhibition uses?

A
  • TMJ
  • Migraine
  • Tension headacahes
  • Sinusitits
21
Q

Temporal pull?

A
  • pincer grip on ear as close to temporal bone as possible apply gentle traction laterally posteriorly and superiorly
  • maintain tension at feather’s edge of barrier until release is felt
22
Q

Temporal pull uses?

A
  • temporal headache
  • vertigo
  • tinnitus
  • TMJ
  • balance tentorium cerebelli
  • Disengate jugular foramen
  • release sutures
23
Q

TMJ decompression?

A
  • indirect balancing with compression of jaw towards TMJ until relaxtion is felt
  • switch to direct release at lateral mandible pushing inferior and anterior until release is noted
24
Q

CV4 Still point induction?

A
  • thenar eminence inferior to superior nuchal line and medial to OM suture
  • compression lateral to sutures induces compression or ex rotation of temporals
  • encoureage extension by leaning back
  • sequentially resist inferior motion (flexion) by not reducing pressure
  • motion diminishes
25
Q

CV4 still point induction uses?

A
  • decrease CRI
  • URI
  • HA
  • Migraine
