Q: What is Bio Cranial Therapy?

A: The Bio Cranial Therapy was developed in the United Kingdom over a period extending from the late 1970’s and 80’s. The Founder and Developer of Bio Cranial Therapy is Dr. Robert Boyd, a UK based Osteopath. BCT is totally New Therapy with a totally New Understanding about the nature of a vast number of disorders from which Mankind suffers.

Q: What kind of illness can be treated with Bio Cranial Therapy?

A: The most commonly treated conditions are pain syndrome, such as low back pain, shoulder pain, headache, foot pain, migraine, carpal tunnel syndrome, sciatica, herniated discs, pinched nerve, tendonitis, arthritis, stiff neck, frozen shoulder, rotator cuffs, tennis elbow, spinal stenosis, fibromyalgia, trigeminal neuralgia, post-herpes neuralgia, TMJ, etc. However, BCT also addresses other illness such as dizziness, vertigo, Menier’s syndrome, blurred vision, stress, anxiety, allergy, chronic fatigue syndrome, sinus problem, stroke rehab, neuropathy, ringing of the ear, asthma, Bell’s palsy, irritable bowel syndrome, Parkinsonism, menstrual disorders and many skin problems such as acne, acne rosacea, psoriasis, eczema, etc.

Q: Is Bio Cranial Therapy useful for injuries – sports, auto accidents, home, industrial, etc.?

A: Bio Cranial Therapy is almost always the first choice, once localized trauma such as a fracture has been excluded.

Q: Does Bio Cranial Therapy involve any other adjuncts such as herbs, needling, and medications?

A: No. BCT is entirely non invasive. It is not chiropractic adjustment, it is not acupuncture or acupressure, and it is not massage. It doesn’t need any needles. The Bio Cranial protocol is highly specific and the patient will be aware of nothing other than what will seem like a gentle stretch of the neck. There is obviously much more to it than that but the whole thrust of the procedure is to facilitate the body to “unlock” itself under the guidance of the Practitioner and allow the release of the healing from within.

Q: Do you always need to combine Bio Cranial Therapy with Acupuncture?

A: No. Bio Cranial Therapy alone can treat many illnesses very successfully without the combination of Acupuncture. However, under some circumstances, combination of the two can treat more disease and can get a better result or a higher successful rate, such as treating stroke rehabilitation, infertility, impotence, drug addiction, alcoholism, eating disorders, sleep disturbances, weight control and smoking cessation.

Q: What is the difference between Bio Cranial and other cranial techniques?

A: Bio Cranial addresses a level in the causative processes never before realized. Dr. Boyd (Founder and Developer of BCT) believes every one of us arrives in this world structurally (and therefore physiologically) “flawed” in varying degrees. Bio Cranial is the only therapy to recognize not only this, but also the nature of the “flaw” and what needs to be done about it.

Q: How can a single, cranial technique, achieve such dramatic result?

A: The human body is a total unit, and is the engine just about every process-taking place. If it is flawed, then so are the body’s normal processes performing below par – irrespective of whether “symptoms” are present or not. There is only one state of structural normality (and abnormality), and that is determined at the cranial level. Bio Cranial is the unique system that addresses that need by bringing the body into total (global) balance.
