Low back pain: treatment of forward and backward sacral torsions using counterstrain technique

S Cislo, MA Ramirez, and HR Schwartz

The sacral foramen tender points are newly identified, specific indicators of somatic dysfunction. The use of counterstrain to release these tender points and relieve the associated somatic dysfunction is a safe, specific, and nontraumatic means of treating any patient even in the presence of illness or acute trauma. These new tender points and their releases provide a means of treating sacral torsions with counterstrain.
