Reflections
Have you ever thought - in your Quiet Hour - what S.O.T. really means to you? When you have found an answer (or found it unanswerable), ask yourself this: "What would CHIROPRACTIC have if it had never had SACRO OCCIPITAL TECHNIC?" ......
- Dr. Jonathan Howat, Cranial Communication Systems
- Jonathan M. P. Howat, DC is in private practice in Oxford, England and founder of Sacro Occipital Technique Organization (SOTO) – Europe. Diplomate in Craniopathy and Dean of Academic Affairs for the Cranial Faculty in the College of Chiropractic (United Kingdom). Dr. Howat lectures world wide on SOT, Craniopathy, and Paediatrics and has Fellowships in the Cranial and Peadatric Faculties. He has written and developed the modules for the Masters Degree in Craniopathy, is author of “Anatomy and Physiology of Sacro Occipital Technique” and co-author of the text, “Complementary Therapies in Dentistry.”
- Dr. Marc Pick, Marc Pick Creations
- Marc G. Pick is a Doctor of Chiropractic practicing in in Beverly Hills, California since 1973. In a desire to enhance his services, he attended Emperors College of Traditional Oriental Medicine from 1987-92, and in 1997, he completed the American Chiropractic Association’s 300-hour postgraduate course in Neurology.
He earned his Diplomate and Fellowship status in Craniopathy through the International Craniopathic Society sponsored by the Sacro-Occipital Research Society International (SORSI) and has lectured throughout the United States, Mexico, Japan, Korea, Australia, England, France, Canada, Italy and Switzerland since 1979.
Since 1973, he has performed several thousand hours of human dissection and founded Project Human (the construction of a prosected latex humanoid cast from the parts of human cadavers).
Naturally inquisitive about the intracranial impact of cranial manipulations, he began investigating the visual effects of cranial manipulations upon the intracranial structures during MRI scanning and was published in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics (JMPT) in 1994. His more recent work is the text, “Cranial Sutures”, published and released through Eastland Press. The text is a comprehensive guide to sutural analysis, morphology and manipulative strategies and is designed to aid the practitioner’s manipulative applications through a greater understanding of the skull’s interarticular relationships. In 1998, Dr. Pick was approached by the Pacific Asian Association of Chiropractic (PAAC) to develop and conduct an ongoing course in human dissection to be held annually at the medical school in Honolulu. Since that time the course has been officially accepted as part of the medical schools “Outreach program” and is currently offered once each year. He has also just acquired an assigned space in the Gross Anatomy Lab at UCLA School of Medicine were he is currently conducting personal research in synthetic humanoid reconstructions.
One of Dr. Pick’s latest accomplishments is his creation of a latex fiber optic model of the Human Central & Peripheral Nervous System. This was placed on loan to the Wellcome Trust for their 2002 Exhibit that was displayed at the Museum of Science in London.
