Balanced Health with Sacro Occipital Technique (SOT) Chiropractic Care
The Sacro Occipital Technique (SOT) is a gentle and precise chiropractic approach that helps balance the body by addressing the relationship between the spine, pelvis, and skull. At Dr. Claire Chittleborough Chiropractic, SOT care is used to restore natural alignment, relieve pain, and support your body’s ability to heal.
​
As a trusted SOT chiropractor, Dr. Claire uses this technique to identify subtle imbalances that may be affecting your posture, movement, or nervous system. Through careful assessment and tailored adjustments, your body can move more freely, function more efficiently, and feel more balanced overall.
What Is the Sacro Occipital Technique?
The Sacro Occipital Technique focuses on the connection between the sacrum (base of the spine) and the occiput (base of the skull). By gently restoring alignment in these key areas, your nervous system can communicate more effectively throughout the body.
As a skilled SOT chiropractor, Dr. Claire uses specific blocks, light adjustments, and breathing techniques to bring the body back into harmony.
This method can be especially beneficial for people experiencing:
-
Headaches or dizziness
-
Neck and back tension
-
TMJ or jaw issues
-
Pelvic or hip imbalance
-
Chronic fatigue or postural strain
All back and neck pain conditions
A Holistic Approach to SOT Care
Dr. Claire’s treatment philosophy is built on addressing the whole spine and body, not just the site of pain. Even if you experience discomfort in one area, the underlying issue may originate elsewhere, often as a compensation pattern. By combining her experience as an SOT chiropractor with gentle chiropractic spinal adjustment care, Dr. Claire helps release these deeper imbalances and supports long-term improvement.
SOT is not just about the spine but can include cranial adjustments and organ reflexes - the nerve complexes that go to the organs and feed back to the spine - can also be assessed
This holistic perspective is what sets SOT apart from traditional chiropractic techniques, focusing on restoring balance to the entire system, not only individual joints.
