Q

What causes a Chapman point?

A

Increased sympathetic tone causes lymphatic stasis that is palpable as a tender myofascial, rubbery nodule. A primary visceral afferent produces a secondary myofascial tender point.

Q

“The sympathetic nervous system is diffuse in distribution the and is the sole enervator of both the musculoskeletal and vasomotor systems. Therefore somatic dysfunction could impact on reflex patterns between both the musculoskeletal and autonomic nervous systems through the sympathetic intermediary, as well as the vasomotor system and could also become a common denominator in a wide variety of disease entities. The only way to alter sympathetic activity is osteopathic manipulative treatment.”
