Sacro occipital technique (SOT)

Sacro occipital technique (SOT) is a specialised, comprehensive, gentle and innovative technique of chiropractic founded in 1925 by Dr De Jarnette. It is so named because of the relationship between the sacrum (base of the spine) and the occiput (base of the skull).

One of the functions of the sacrum is to pump Cerebro-Spinal Fluid (CSF) from the base of the spine back up the spinal canal to the brain and throughout the nervous system. The occiput also helps to pump CSF. The minute rhythmical motion that circulates the CSF is essential to optimal health – CSF effectively acts as the circulatory system of the brain and spinal cord.
