What is SacroOccipital Chiropractic Treatment?
SacroOccipital Technique, (SOT) is a gentle treatment method designed to address a deeper level of the nervous system than typical chiropractic. Founded by Dr. Major DeJarnette, a chiropractor, osteopath and engineer, SOT blends techniques from both traditions with knowledge of structure relationships in all parts of the body. Disruption in nervous system function can be addressed from interactions with muscles and joints to as deep as the tissue surrounding the brain and spinal cord. This is what makes SOT especially effective for the relief of headaches, jaw related issues and post-concussion syndrome.

DC, CSCP
I found SOT when I was looking for treatment for my own struggles with Post-Concussion Syndrome. Realizing the unique power of SacroOccipital Technique to heal complex issues in the entire body, I devoted myself to the in-depth study required to master the technique. As the only Certified SOT Cranial Practitioner, (CSCP) in the San Francisco Bay Area, my mission is to help patients with hard to solve issues heal and maintain ongoing health.
