The science is not just about the issue of cranial plates moving or not. Studies have been done where multiple CST practitioners are told to diagnose the same patients. There is little to no consistency between their diagnoses. Their observation of the CS Fluid rhythms are all over the map.

An instructor at a respected Osteopathic College has written extensively about the many fallacies of CST. The manipulative skills on the spine can be of benefit but the cranial work has no consistency or logical basic.

There are many skills an osteopath may have that can be useful other than CST. If they take a more hands-on and wholistic approach, they will not get stuck in the common MD system of doubt the patient.

Just like chiros, you need to use common sense and rational thought. Just because they say it is so, does not make it so.
