Abstract: Many health problems arise from a mechanism in the body about which many doctors are unaware: the cranial-sacral mechanism. Members of the chiropractic and osteopathic professions have made a major effort to understand dysfunction in this area and how to correct it. Unfortunately this knowledge has not been widely dispersed, and a majority of individuals continue to suffer with health problems which could be corrected if a larger number of doctors were aware of the wide range of problems developing from disturbances in the mechanics of
the human head.

Many of the areas in which application of the cranial concept might be of great benefit are controlled by specialist practitioners in other disciplines who are not yet aware of this very potent and vital system operating in their patients. These specialties include headache and neck pain clinics, paediatrics, obstetrics, dentistry, psychiatry, ear-nose-and-throat doctors, and the general medical practitioner. Other conditions that may be caused by cranial problems are headaches, TMJ dysfunction, hypertension, impaired brain circulation, disturbances in the endocrine and digestive systems, vision, hearing, and general neurologic disorganisation.

Parents and teachers often assign improper labels to children such as ‘slow learner’, ‘poor reader’, ‘dyslexic’, ‘poor listener’, ‘”hyperactive’, or ‘poorly disciplined’, not realising that the sensorimotor confusion arising from cranial disturbances underlie each of these conditions. Unfortunately, these patients tend to travel from doctor to doctor receiving only temporary, if any, relief from their condition.

This paper presents a basic clinical approach to Cranial work which has been found to allow good outcomes in cases such as those mentioned.
