Explanation of the many different types, their inhibition patterns
and how to treat with a neurological P-DTR approach. General indications:

Cranial nerve conditions, autonomic nervous system imbalance.
Endocrine system imbalance, neurologic disorganization (often jaw).
Skull trauma, whiplash, dental malocclusion & tooth extraction.
Gait dysfunctions, dysfunctional interactions between different body regions.
Poor body habits (e.g. propping one’s chin on their hand).
