The past November and current December 2006 issues of the Journal of the American Chiropractic Association have had two extensive articles discussing chiropractic diagnosis and treatment of sacroiliac joint dysfunction. While the information is important, well presented and of value, what I found amazing or shocking is that Sacro Occipital Technique (SOT) was not even given a minor mention.

To some degree this lack of awareness in our research circles is the fault and responsibility of SOT organizations worldwide however we cannot focus on the past but need to move forward. We do need more research and doctors willing to stand up and be heard in the research circles and arenas. As always, I am happy to assist whenever possible. Since SOTO-USA is carrying the majority of the honor or burden of producing research for the international SOT community we need your help financially so we can continue with this support.
