It is so named because of the relationship between the Sacrum (base of the spine) and the Occiput (base of the skull). Spinal fluid is produced in the brain & pumped down the spinal cord by pumps inside the skull at the junction of the skull & the neck (occiput) & at the pelvis (sacrum).

The functioning of these pumps is vital to normal health. SOT gently facilitiates the efficiency of these pumps by aligning the spine with minute precise adjustments, using wedges to optimise stability, realign distortions & increase flow of cerebro-spinal fluids, thus removing causes of malfunctions.

Distortions may occur when the body is subjected to stresses to which it cannot adapt. These stresses may be physical (birth trauma, injuries, accidents), chemical (food additives, drugs, environmental pollution), or mental/emotional. Precise analysis and gentle correction - the hallmark of S.O.T. - removes the effects of cranial stress and distortions, and helps to restore the nervous system to its normal function.

It probably comes as no surprise that most people first visit Haberfield Chiropractic because they are experiencing backache, neck or sore shoulders or are suffering from migraines, headaches or other ailments.
