3.1 History<br />

The craniosacral concept was developed by Sutherl<strong>and</strong> <strong>between</strong> 1898-1954.<br />

He exp<strong>and</strong>ed Still´s ground principles of osteopathy to the cranium. Through<br />

thoughts, experiments <strong>and</strong> clinical observations, he researched <strong>and</strong> identified<br />

relationships <strong>between</strong> the mobility of sutures, fluids, membranes <strong>and</strong> certain<br />

dysfunctions respectively diseases. Sutherl<strong>and</strong> discovered a slowly pulsating<br />

movement that was independent from the heart <strong>and</strong> breathing rhythms <strong>and</strong> that<br />

could be influenced by subtile manual methods of treatment. The similarity<br />

<strong>between</strong> the dynamic of the embryological development <strong>and</strong> the pulmonary<br />

breathing lead to the phrase: “primary respiratory mechanism” 29 (=PRM).<br />
