Abstract/Notes	Narrative: Sacro-occipital technique (SOT) occipital fibres is a Chiropractic technique developed by Major Bertrand DeJarnette, DO, DC with multiple aspects integrated into a single system of care. Occipital fibres technique (OFT) assists the Chiropractor in locating and adjusting thoracic and lumbar vertebral subluxations. It also helps identifying specific viscerosomatic/somatovisceral reflex organ problems while incorporating visceral soft tissue therapeutic applications. OCT can facilitate the management of dis-ease while at the same time providing a philosophy of care. This is a retrospective study that reviewed the records of 65 patients adjusted using SOT occipital fibre technique (OCT) and was conducted in parts during 2011 and 2012.
