This advanced lecture and lab course places emphasis on the role the cervical spine plays in the management of cranial function and position. Intercervical, atlanto, occipital, and cranial assessment will help the clinician appreciate occiput, sphenoid and temporal orientation and thus how to proceed in determining what PRI manual or non-manual techniques should be considered. Correlations of airway obstruction, hyoid and vocal cord dysfunction, cervical and cranial symptomology, and temporal-mandibular dysfunction to the left sidebending or right torsion physiologic pattern will be discussed.
Prior attendance of Postural Respiration is required.
