NervesAll nerves that control parasympathetic function of the body's organs originate from cranial or sacral nerves
Cerebrospinal fluidClear liquid in the brain that supports or buoys the brain, cushions the central nervous system, and carries nutrients
Ventricles of the brainFour pockets in the brain where csf is produced
Choroid plexusTissue in the ventricles that produces most of csf
Craniosacral mechanism was first observed byWilliam Sutherland DO
He theorized thatSutures were moveable, the beveled edge of the sphenoid bone has a respiratory function, the brain expands and contracts rhythmically to move csf through the cranial vault
Who developed craniosacral as a modality?John Upledger DO
According to UpledgerThe production of csf is faster then reabsorption therefore the rise and fall of csf is achieved by homeostatic regulation, csf reaches upper limit then stops about 6-8 times/min.
The belief with craniosacral isThrough gental palpation and manipulation the system can be affected to promote balance, amplitude, and symmetry in rhythm that affects overall health
