๐ฟ SOT: Reducing Tension, Restoring Balance ๐ฟ
At Shaw Chiropractic Clinic, we use Sacral Occipital Technique (SOT) to help your nervous system function at its best.
Neurosurgeon Alf Breig showed that the brain and spinal cord act like one continuous tension system. When the spinal structures are under postural strain, it can create Adverse Mechanical Tension โ a pulling or strain on the nervous system that can affect a myriad of bodily functions.
โจ How SOT Helps:
SOT gently balances the neural tube, spinal cord, and the cavity around it using specific blocks and precise, low-force adjustments. This reduces tension and helps the brain and body communicate clearly.
๐ก When the nervous system is balanced, your body can return to a stable internal environment โ meaning better coordination, smoother function, and natural healing can occur.
