Dear Colleague:

The SOT® Research Update is a service offered by SOTO-USA to help doctors become aware of the latest Sacro Occipital Technique® (SOT) research related events, papers, and concepts affecting our practices. Please contact me directly at drcblum@aol.com if you are aware of others who might be interested in receiving this quarterly newsletter.

We look forward to seeing you at this upcoming SOTO-USA Clinical Symposium and SOT Research Conference to be held in Bahamas - February 27 - March 1, 2019. This conference's theme will be SOT related cranial manipulative care. The program is already available for review by clicking here. All those presenting will be contributing both a research presentation and hands on technique instruction. Also included in the conference proceedings will be selected CMRT related research articles from the prior 10 years offering a wealth of information to build our evidence base and offering clinically useful cranial applications. Space is limited so if you are interesting in attending this conference please sign up and make your travel plans now.

This newsletter will share information about the SOT related papers and workshop accepted for the upcoming 2019 ACC RAC Conference in Baltimore, Maryland and the 2009 World Federation Congress in Berlin, Germany. Also shared will be those papers accepted at last year's ACC RAC in Dallas, Texas, a paper accepted at the Australian Chiropractic Association (ACA) National Conference Research Symposium, and papers accepted at the 2018 SOT Research Conference in Kauai, Hawaii.
