What is cranial osteopathy?
W. G. Sutherland discovered the intrinsic movements of the cranial membranes, proving there were micro-movements of the cranial bones. The biomechanics of the hundreds of cranial articulations are coherent. The consequences on the sensory organs, cranial nerves and various parts of the brain are obvious. With this in mind, cranial work on babies and children whose cranial bones are still forming should be a priority. However, cranial osteopathy is only useful when it is part of osteopathic therapeutic methodology.
