BLOG:
Craniosacral Therapy as a Treatment Adjunct
|
|
This week, I want to tell you a story about a patient, a quick conversation I had with the owner, AND a recent research article all pertaining to osteopathy and craniosacral techniques.
On Saturday, one of my receptionists came to me and asked if I would consider staying late after my last appointment to see a vestibular dog. I only work half days on Saturdays and we have a major soft spot for the vestibular dogs, so I said ‘sure’!
So, at the end of my morning, in comes a female geriatric German Shepherd cross and her stressed out owners. The ‘dad’ is an urology-surgeon and knew about the human vestibular techniques. He had done them in the past with his mother for a vestibular incident. So, he asked around and was directed to our clinic website, found information that made sense to him, and called in.
Fast forward, I used the side lie technique and Semont maneuver to treat, did the head & eye movement coordination testing / training, blind folded balancing, and finished off with a little bit of craniosacral to the temporal bones. Just before I placed my hands to assess her craniosacral rhythm of the temporals, I said to the owner, “Okay, now I’m going to do a little bit of voodoo. It’s an osteopathic technique
called craniosacral.”
His reaction shocked me. He said, “Oh, I’m good with that. I work with physios and they do all sorts of stuff that I don’t understand, but it works!”

For over a year, I worked with Physiotec (an online exercise platform) to create a exercise prescription platform for canine rehab practitioners. And this is it!
I've put hundreds of exercises together onto this handy platform. You can find the exercises, print off a handout, send them a link to the VIDEOS of the exercises. There's so much: Massage, owner-friendly joint therapies, exercises, advisement, etc,
etc!
NOW... be aware that this platform is run by / owned by Physiotec (and they charge separately for it's use)... and the support for the website is via physiotec as well. The MAIN GLITCH I am finding now... is that when you e-mail or call tech-support you will NEED to LET THEM KNOW that your question pertains to FOURLEGEXERCISE! (Otherwise, it's a bit of a schmozzle to get sorted, because they direct you to the
Physiotec website vs FourLegExercise website!!!) Check it out and LET ME KNOW (what you think, your experiences, etc... so that I can report back if there are issues!)
I hope you find it useful!
Go there... Check it out!!!

Have a great week everyone!
Until next time... Cheers!
