2024 - The NOW
August 2024
A Time of Wonder
I wonder if a new medical paradigm
is emerging?
Awareness of
“Mewing”, the Glymphatic System and the Cranial Rhythmic Impulse
is growing worldwide
….all possibly stimulated and reinforced by the Tongue and the Swallow.
Medical possibilities abound.
Dialogue and Discussion
need to materialize as well.
The NOW | Waiting
The Evolution of Equilibrium
My story of 40 years and the amazing changes that evolved – and are continuing to unfold – under cranial osteopathic treatment
as my primary form of medical care.
Disorder Unfolding into Reorder

Mewing and Beyond
The Cranial Connection
…and Tongue to Toe
with the Swallow within the fascial network of the body.
How?
Putting the puzzle together
with the Cranial Osteopathic Perspective
Osteopathy meets Orthodontics
The intersection of the cranial osteopathic perspective with orthodontics is critical and revolutionary!
Patient awareness is mandatory when making orthodontic decisions.

The Glymphatic System Meets the Cranial Rhythmic Impulse
WHAT IS THE GLYMPHATIC SYSTEM?
“…to answer fundamental questions about this system…
we will need fresh perspectives, new techniques,
and collaborations across disciplines…”
WHAT IS THE CRANIAL RHYTHMIC IMPULSE (CRI)?
Are the unidentified ‘pulsations’ and ‘oscillations’
observed in current glymphatic research confirmation of
William Garner Sutherland’s 1899 ‘aha’ observation in medical school?
Will there be “collaboration across disciplines”?
Is Cranial Osteopathy
the “fresh perspective”?
The Orofacial-Pelvic Connection
PAIRED BONES
Interconnectivity
in Motion and Balance
– Two Temporomandibular Joints in the skull
– Two Sacroiliac Joints
in the pelvis
Discover the debilitating effects than can occur
when one of these joints
is not balanced or is restricted
with a dental appliance
and a spinal fusion.
StoryTelling
How to initiate a
“A Perfect Storm”
in the world of the
Cranial Osteopath.
The Tongue, the Swallow and the Hands
Osteopathic and Orthodontic Perspectives in the NOW:
Dialogue or Denial?
Embark into differences in
anatomical functionality
and orientation
… and the impact in medical understanding and treatment.
Venture into controversy:
“Is there no motion or
is there subtle motion
between the sutures”?

Current Principles
Three principles in the evolving contemporary Cranial Concept
as outlined by Tasha Turzo, DO, cranial osteopath
specializing in orofacial development.
– Gumby Awareness –
Fascial Flexibility
– The Cornstarch Effect –
Touch, Tissue and Thixotropy
– Tensegrity and Biotensegrity –
Tension and Compression
The Orchestration of Osteopathy
Outside the Box
“Previous to all discoveries
there exists a demand for that discovery.”
Andrew Taylor Still
The consciousness of the Cranial Concept
has spread worldwide in the 21st century.

A Disease Theory
Within the context of a Disease Theory,
current treatment of disease processes
all share one basic assumption:
EXTERNAL CONTROL
is necessary to treat pathology.
Osteopathic Orientation
THREE GENERAL PRINCIPLES OF OSTEOPATHY
The philosophical foundations
inherent in an osteopathic orientation
should be clearly understood
before introducing the Cranial Concept.
