Unlike traditional chiropractic methods that often focus on spinal adjustments, SOT emphasizes the relationship between the sacrum and occiput to optimize cerebrospinal fluid flow and nervous system function. SOT employs gentle techniques, such as padded wedges and light cranial pressure, rather than forceful adjustments. This holistic approach addresses not just symptoms but the underlying structural imbalances, making it suitable for a wider range of patients, including those who may be sensitive to more aggressive treatments.
