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
Tensegrity and Biotensegrity
TENSEGRITY
“The integrity of an entire structure
is based on its tensional capacity
for continuous movement and balance
between all the elements.”
BIOTENSEGRITY
“The body exists in a delicate balance
of tensile and compressive forces
that hold all our
physical structures in balance.”
Tasha Turzo, DO | The ALF Approach
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 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”?
