OCMM Clinical Research Flashcards

1
Q

What are the goals of craniosacral movement?

A

Reduce venous congestion, mobilize articular restrictions, balance the SBS, and enhance any reduced force, rate and amplitude of the CRI

Q

OCMM treatment can affect and be aimed at what?

A

Outer fascial layers, sutural ligaments (fibrous joints connected by dense CT-synarthrosis), intracranial membranes, also structures that pass thru, between or out of bones, has subtle brain effects

Any dysfunctional bone postition places stress on what?

A

The brain, arteries, veins and venous sinuses thru direct connections to dura and arachnoid

Q

Cranial dura at the occiput and foramen magnum is contiguous with what?

A

Spinal cord dura and therefore influences all spinal nerves and can pull on the vertebrae; vertebral SD similarly pulls on the dura influencing the cranium

Q

Where does the eustachian tube travel?

A

Passes within the temporal bone and exits in the auditory canal; tube lies in the groove between the petrous temporal bone and the greater wing of the sphenoid

Q

Where is the trigeminal ganglion located?

A

Rests in Meckel’s cave on the superior surface of the petrosal ridge of the temporal bone; its cover is dural

Q

Suture compression and overriding sutures are common in what population?

A

Newborns

17
Q

XI and brachial plexus strains may be related to what?

A

The birth process

18
Q

Describe some newborn considerations

A

Stress of CN IX and X at the jugular foramen and condylar compression causing CN XII dysfunction can also cause suckling dysfunction in the newborn; IX vagal SD cna be due to OA, AA and/or C2 dysfunciton

19
Q

What is the clinical use for occipital condylar compression?

A

Poor infant feeding, infant colic, head and neck pain, post trauma to head and neck

20
Q

What is the clinical use for BMT?

A

Assymetrical or diminished CRI, cranial N entrapment, sx related to dural strain or venous sinuses, HA

21
Q

What are the clinical uses for SBS decompression?

A

Diminished CRI, mood disorders, cranial N entrapment, URI/head congestion, pediatric developmental problems

22
Q

What are the clinical uses for a frontal lift?

A

Restricted frontal mobility, to augment SBS flexion, frontal HA, sinus congestion, pediatric developmental issues

23
Q

What are the clinical uses for parietal lift?

A

TMJ, HA, decompresses squamosal (parietal-squamous) suture, compressed with trauma clinching/grinding of teeth

24
Q

What are the clinical uses for pterigo(spheno)palatine ganglion inhibition/stimulation?

A

TMJ, migraine, tension HA, sinusitis

25
Q

What are the clinical uses for temporal pull?

A

Temporal HA, vertigo, tinnitus, TMJ issues, balances the tentorium cerebelli, disengages the jugular foramen, release the petrosphenoid, occipitopetrous and occipitomastoid sutures

26
Q

What are the clinical uses for TMJ decompression?

A

TMJ restriction, mandible restriction, neck pain

27
Q

What are the clinical uses for V spread?

A

Any cranial vault suture restriction

28
Q

What are the clincal uses for occipitomastoid release?

A

Trauma, migraine, TMJ and vertigo

29
Q

What are the clincal uses for sagittal suture release?

A

Migraine, tension HA, trauma release

30
Q

What are the clinical uses for CV4 still point induction?

A

Decreased CRI, URI, HA/migraine

31
Q

What are the clincal uses for CV4 pump?

A

Fatigue, depression, insomnia
