Cranial Adjusting

Cranial adjusting offers relief from a multitude of symptoms including, but not limited to, headaches, dizziness, sinus congestion, TMJ (jaw pain), confusion, ringing in the ears and some hearing problems.

Until recently, medical science assumed that the cranium was fused after childhood. But now science has finally caught up with the theories that date back hundreds of years, that the sutures (lines that form the junctions between the various cranial bones) actually move in a rhythmic pattern in the living skull. This rhythmic movement, among other things, helps to pump cerebrospinal fluid (the nervous systems version of blood) through the central nervous system. When this mechanism is disrupted it can cause a multitude of symptoms including: headaches, dizziness, hearing problems, ringing in the ears, depression and an instability of the upper cervical spine. Dr. Jeffers uses a combination of Sacro-Occiputal Technique (SOT) and Applied Kinesiology Cranial Technique. This procedure involves gentle manipulation of the structures of the head to restore proper motion and position of the skull. She has seen some profound changes over the years as a result of this procedure.
