The CATS method depends on the cranial sutures still being movable or not fused. The cranial adjustment community claims the sutures remain open into the 40s and 50s. The man stream community believes they are fused or closed by 25.

A study I read long ago tried to find commonality in diagnosing whether the sutures are fused or open and read the abnormality. 10 different practitioners 'reading' 10 different patients had no commonality in their reads beyond random chance.

There is a lot of alternative therapies in Marin County. Are the CATS treatments adjusting the cranial plates or is there a value to releasing spasming muscles in a myofacial or pressure point therapy? Studies show sham therapies can have a 60% placebo value, even more when the cost of the therapy is higher.

Each person has to do their own checking to see how they respond. As I usually say, don't spend the rent money on these protocols but if you believe the promotional explanation, some may be worth a try.
