Abstract
The question of this experiment is whether a Cranial Base Release has any influence on
distress, heart frequency or bloodpressure. Therefore my base Hypothesis is that a Cranial
Base Release has no influence on the heart frequency, the bloodpressure or the amount of
distress that a person perceives. My end hypothesis is that the Cranial Base Release has an
influence on the heart frequency, the bloodpressure and amount of distress that a person
In chapter 1. I will start by explaining what stress is and the effect it has on the body. In stress
there is a change in homeostasis. The system which controls the homeostasis is the
Autonomic Nervous System. I will then explain how the autonomic nervous system is built
up. Finally it will become clear that the relationship between distress and the OAA is through
the Vagus nerve. I will clarify the structure of the N.Vagus and its functions. This will be build
up from its origin in the brainstem through to the neck, thorax and abdomen. The tonus of the
vagus is a tool which is used to describe the amount of stress somebody is under, I will
describe why a checklist and blood pressure monitor have been used to measure the amount
of distress/ the vagus tonus.
In chapter 2 the technique which was used will be explained and why this technique is used
on the OAA complex to influence the amount of distress.Furthermore the explanation of the
methodology which is used: 40 people were divided into two groups through both there
dysfunction and their distress score. The group with the distress score higher than 10 and the
neck dysfunctions were put in the experimental group. The people with a distress score lower
than 10 and no neck dysfunctions were put in the control group. Both groups were during the
first treatment given the opportunity to climatize and after 5 minutes on the treating table their
blood pressure and heart frequency were measured. After that they were treated during 15
minutes with a Cranial Base Release Technique. After this treatment their blood pressure and
heart frecquency were again measured.
The second treatment was after 2 weeks and followed the same procedure except that people
filled in their form after the treatment instead of before as in the first treatment.
Chapter 3 will be a overview of the data and the statistical procedure that was used to evaluate
the experiment.
In chapter 4 it will become clear that there is an significant effect on the amount of distress
that a person perceives, through the treatment of the OAA complex after 2 weeks. There is no
significant effect on the blood pressure or the heart frequency.
My conclusion is that during the treatment there is a lowering in heart frequency, and this
indicates that there is a lowering of the vagal tone. But this effect is lost after the treatment.
Therefore this technique is good to get a patient in a lower orthosympatic tone, so that other
techniques might attain more effect. On the long term there is an effect on the distress through
this technique.

Very much glad and hope you did well your thesis.A long time you are not writing here may be you are quite busy with your work.But I requesting to continuing your writing and keep in mind by your writing may help lot of people to get knowledge.You can also write chiropractic and remedial message therapy.
