Welcome to this edition of the newsletters article on the
thoracic four reflex work involving the gall bladder, common
bile duct and ampulla of vater. The bloodless surgery proce-
dures in this paper are the observations of Dr. De Jarnette
and his colleague, Dr. Mel Rees who developed the tempo-
ral sphenoidal reflex areas you see on your S.O.T. wall chart.
In clinical practice with a D4 reflex, CMRT and TS patient
there are nine areas of pain reflex. Dr. Rees marked these
with a skin pencil for pre and post comparison. In point
form, these markings are:
1. The pain warning sign of bile system problems that
brings in more patients than any other is knee pains.
You will isolate the reflex pain to a small area on the
medial inferior of both knees which is the bile duct
sphincter of Oddi reflex. Mark these ouch areas with a
skin pencil.
2. Mark the temporal sphenoidal T4 that is most painful. This will be the headache area that so
many of these patients will present. This will extend to the superciliary arch then over the
head to the occipital, commonly on the right hand side.
3. A common patient complaint will be pain areas on the right shoulder girdle. With a skin pen-
cil mark the painful shoulder areas. These are on the right scapula as lateral painful nodules
and on the top of the right shoulder meaning common bile duct abnormalities.
4. You will be surprised at how many patients will show you a pain
area just above the right elbow on the inside of the arm which is
the reflex area for the intestine area where the common bile
duct empties. Mark this with a skin pencil.
5. Mark the painful to palpation third cervical transverse, com-
monly on the right hand side. This will be one of your contacts.
6. Mark the right hand web nodule which will be painful in gall blad-
der abnormalities.
7. Mark the right foot gall bladder area.
8. Mark the ampulla of vater reflex master area which occurs one and a half
inches to the right of the umbilicus then three quarters of an inch down. In
metric, this is roughly 40 millimetres to the right and twenty millimetres down.
In some publications, a misprint gave this reflex point as three inches down
rather than three quarters of an inch down, so please note this.
9. Mark the centre of the sternum painful area. This will be your final pre-
ganglionic area and is a region you have encountered previously in this series
of articles.
There are several other areas that De Jarnette recommended you should note and
test for before you begin your gall bladder and bile system CMRT work, including:
a) If the gall bladder is acutely inflamed, when you squeeze the right thumb index finger web
there will be noted contraction of the abdominal muscles.
b) If the gall bladder is acutely inflamed when you squeeze the right foot gall bladder reflex area
you will cause abdominal muscle contractions. This foot reflex area is usually more promi-
nent than the finger thumb web reflex.
c) If these two reflex areas are tender but no abdominal reaction is elicited then you have a
chronic gall bladder disorder to contend with.
Here is a real dilemma for you to experience. You palpate and test these areas and suggest to the

patient that they have a gall bladder problem. They say this cant be
possible as they have had their gall bladder removed some years previ-
ously. Here is what has occurred. Because the surgery was done under
anaesthesia, the brain did not fully record this and is not aware that
the gall bladder has been removed and thinks the gall bladder is still
there and in trouble. Part of your CMRT work is to handle this neuro-
logical confusion. It is a bit like the organ equivalent of phantom limb
syndrome, in which a person loses a leg but still feels a need to scratch
a perceived itch or feels pain or par aesthesia in that limb.
A patient can exhibit any one or all of the following symptoms of gall
bladder and bile system abnormality.
1. The lower G.I. tract distended by gas.
2. Gastro enteric distress.
3. Gastric vertigo.
4. Pain over lateral scapula.
5. Right shoulder girdle pains.
6. Knee pains.
7. A right frontal sphenoidal headache.
8. Nausea.
9. Irregular bowel action.
10. Bowel movement yellowish and with an oily appearance.
11. Jaundiced whites of eyes.
12. Nervous to extremes.
13. Pain between xiphoid and umbilical.
14. A tension over McBurneys point.
15. Occipital pull described by the patient as headache in back of
head.
In the procedure for the T4 reflex patient you are dealing with bile sta-
sis. You are endeavouring to do the following seven things:
1. Anaesthetise the very painful common bile duct so you can work
in that area.
2. Relax the sphincter of Oddi.
3. Relax the spastic common bile duct.
4. Relax and empty an inflamed impeded gall bladder or convince
the brain that a surgically removed gall bladder is no trouble.
5. Drain the liver of impeded bile backup.
6. Adjust the occipital side slip which will be found.
7. After this has been completed you then remove the anaesthesia
with the preganglionic technique.
T4 Technique
Your patient is supine and you are seated to the patients right. All
reflex areas to be worked on have been marked with a skin pencil and
the following seven steps are then performed.
Step One: As soon as the patient is turned from the prone to the su-
pine the doctor applies TS pain control anaesthesia. The doctors left
hand finger contacts with light pressure the active TS T4 on skull. Doc-
tors right hand holds a light contact over the ampulla of vater abdomi-
nal reflex. This is a one to two minute hold being enough time to block
the pain receptors so that the following steps can be more readily per-
formed.
Step Two: Now move your left hand under the patient and contact the
T4 transverse process majorits held there under the patients body
weight. Your right hand begins at the soft tissue under the xiphoid and
works its way down to the ampulla of vater area, in sweeping circles.
This is to relax the common bile duct. If you have done your TS pain
control sufficiently, this should be well tolerated by the patient.
In earlier times, thus in the development of CMRT when it was still
termed bloodless surgery, this step was known as post-ganglionic
clearing or neutralisation of the postganglionic exciter. Simply, you are
clearing out the pain-causing signals that the viscera are sending to
the brain. Now, with the spasmodic calibre narrowing visceral reflex
neutralised you can proceed to drain the bile ducts and the gall blad-
der.
Step Three: Now you must relax the gall bladder and use palpatory
pressure so that it will empty its contents. If there has been gall blad-
der surgery this will relax the stub by clearing lace adhesions and thus
convincing the brain that the gall bladder area is normal. If the right
hand web reflex is more painful than the foot gall bladder reflex, then
you contact the marked nodule in the web between your left hand in-
dex finger and thumb with a squeezing pressure. Your right flat hand is
placed over the bile duct area with the fingers over the gall bladder just
under the liver. The rest of the flat hand will be over the bile duct and
ampulla of vater. This hand contact presses floorward and then head-
wards as the left hand contact uses rotary moves over the web nodula-
tion. Do this for one minute or until you feel the gurgling sensation as
relaxation occurs.
Step Four: If the foot reflex is more painful than the thumb web, then
the foot contact is used for this step. The right foot area where you
find this gall bladder reflex is just to the inside of the colon hepatic
flexure reflex foot area. Flex the patients right knee and bring his right
foot up to rest over his left knee so you can readily reach the reflex.
Use a right hand double finger reinforced contact to the foot reflex as
your left hand contacts over the ampulla of vater. No vigorously ma-
nipulate the marked foot contact as the bile duct soft tissue contact is
pushed floorward and then headward up under the liver. Repeat this
for one minute or until you feel the gall bladder bile duct areas relax.
Step Five: This is the third cervical contact. The third cervical on the
right hand side is contacted with left thumb anterior, fingers to the
posterior. The right hand contacts those tissues to the right and infe-
rior of the umbilicus. You lightly stimulate the cervical while lower
hand moved floorward then headward. You continue until you hear
and feel the gall bladder, common bile duct and intestines move with a
gurgling sound. If gall bladder surgery has been performed you will still
get the gurgling sound. Remember with this step you are normalising
gall bladder to brain reflexes. It is telling the brain that the gall bladder
which isnt there but should be is returning to normal function as you
proceed with this technique.
Step Six: This is now a pump out and emptying technique. You reach
under the patient with your left hand and make firm contact with the
painful dural port area at the fourth dorsal. The right hand vigorously
carries the bile duct tissues up under the liver and rib cage to the right
and then to the left as headward pressure is maintained.
If the gall bladder is still intact it will discharge its contents. If surgical
removal has been the case, it will produce ease in perception of the
gall bladder troubled reflex.
Step Seven: You only use this step when you are certain that all the
bile duct reflexes are normal. In practise you would have 5 or 6 visits
before adding this, the pre-ganglionic step. A good suggestion is to go
to the CMRT 1966 step of De Jarnettes, thus, the postganglionic. De
Jarnette used the holding contact over the right shoulder and mildly
stimulated two areas in postganglionic procedure, the rib or duct area
and secondly, the ampulla area, we have already worked on. The pre-
ganglionic has these same contacts, duct and ampulla, but whereas
the postganglionic is a soothing hold contact for the spinal accessory
nerve, the preganglionic involves contacting that central sternal exciter
area (after visit five); found at the sternum at the mid nipple line.
This area is painful to touch and you tell the patient so. You then per-
form 10 vigorous circles as the other hand is on the duct reflex area
and then 10 vigorous circles as the other hand is on the ampulla area.

Effectively, you are putting a force into the nervous system to stimulate a previously troubled viscous, either inflamed or chronically sluggish
into activity.
As with all of the articles in this series, the information is there to flesh out your CMRT procedure that you have learned in your basic series
and which you have read about in the definitive work, De Jarnettes CMRT Manual, 1966. This volume and the charts you will need are avail-
able from Averil at SOTO Australasia headquarters. As well, dont forget that wonderful resource, the Rose Ertler memorial library, which is
maintained by Dr. Rozeboom and has generously been made available to SOTO Australasia members. Bye for now.

Asthma is reaching epidemic levels. So I thought I would do a word
search in De Jarnette Craniopathy. In just one book, the 1982 Cra-
niopathic Instructors Manual, I found the following. I copied the para-
graph where asthma is found. Imagine if this were done for all of the
SOT- Craniopathic manuals.
