A Brief History
The Cranial Concept, which evolved from the founder of Osteopathy, A.T. Still, DO, and one of his students, William Garner Sutherland, DO, offers a unique advance in the art and science of healing by directing the body’s inherent ability to normalize function and promote healing.
Cranial Osteopathy is the application of the principles of Osteopathy to the entire body, including the bones, membranes and fluid surrounding the brain and spinal cord. It has a physiological explanation based on the study of anatomical structure and function and clinical observations of the response to treatment.
“To find Health should be
the object of the Doctor”
– Dr. A.T. Still
