Seminar Six:
The Midline Continued
|
Occipital Triad and Cranial Base
Introduction to the 'inherent treatment plan', review of the holistic shift and the action of potency within the fluids.
- Introduction to the stages of birth.
- Classical cranial base dynamics, the classic patterns of the sphenobasilar junction (SBJ) and clinical skills.
- Introduction to force vector issues and force vector entrapment.
- Traumatic impacts of cranial base patterns.
- Clinical applications and connections.
In this seminar, the concept of the “inherent treatment plan” is introduced and palpation sessions explored. Emphasis is on letting go of conditioned motion, orienting to the holistic shift and primary respiration. The “occipital triad”, the occiput, atlas and axis, is explored via palpation. The concept of intraosseous lesions is introduced and viewed within the context of occiput-atlas-axis dynamics. Compressive issues between these relationships are explored within a clinical context. The “unit of function” of sphenoid-occiput-atlas is also introduced as an extension of this enquiry. We will begin to explore the stages of birth and their impact on the system. Clinical issues relating to fluid congestion are explored within the wider context of the fluid tide and the fluid drive of the system. In this seminar, the classic cranial base patterns are introduced within a biodynamic framework and clinical approaches are presented. The traumatic impacts and clinical issues relating to cranial base patterns are discussed. Within this context, further trauma skills will be developed and force vector issues will be explored via palpation.
