Does Reviv fix cranial strain patterns?

Yes it does. But unlike osteopaths, Reviv fixes them the right way :)

This is a scenario I’ve gotten a number of times now.

Someone has been to an osteopath and been diagnosed with a cranial strain pattern. For example ‘right side bend’.

And they are wondering if Reviv will help undo it.

And I say yes. Almost even before the person finishes telling me what strain it is.

What’s more… I know I will deliver each and every time if that person sticks with Reviv.

How am I so confident?

Let me explain.

What are cranial strains?

Cranial strains are distortions in the relationship between the bones of the skull. Osteopaths, who focus heavily on these patterns, believe they can significantly impact health and function.

The skull consists of 22 bones connected by sutures - areas of soft tissue that allow subtle movement between the bones.

In 2017-18, I studied quite a bit of osteopathy and learned their perspective on these strain patterns.

Osteopaths spend years developing the sensitivity to feel these subtle distortions and believe they can manually correct them through gentle manipulation techniques.

At that time I used to love drawing arrows on pictures of people’s faces like the ones on the boy at the top of the article. I used to think I was practicing interpreting the cranial srain patterns on people.

Now I consider that to be not a good use of time It’s like coming up with names for all of the different ways you can crush a Coke can. Why come up with lots of names when you can just inflate the damn thing!

What are the different types of cranial strain patterns?

Osteopaths classify several types of cranial strains:

Vertical strains: Where the skull is compressed vertically
Lateral strains: Where the skull is twisted sideways
Torsion patterns: Where the skull has rotated around its vertical axis
Sidebending-rotation: A combination of lateral bending and rotation
Compression patterns: Where the entire skull is compressed inward

Each pattern supposedly requires different treatment approaches and can create various symptoms throughout the body.

Why I think this is the wrong way to look at the problem?

While osteopaths aren't wrong about the existence of these distortions, I believe they're overcomplicating a simpler issue.

Think of the skull like a crushed Coke can. And your job is to bring it back to its original state.

You’re gonna be sitting there playing with it for a very long time. And probably still won’t get it completely back to its original form because its very hard to work on something that is crushed from the outside.

And it is far easier to work on it from the inside! That is essentially what Reviv does.

You see when the soft tissue "deflates," the skull essentially collapses inward, creating various strain patterns. Just like the crushed Coke can.

Trying to correct each individual strain pattern is like trying to manually unbend each dent in the crushed can. You might fix one area only to create problems elsewhere.

The fundamental issue isn't the specific pattern of distortion - it's that the whole thing was crushed.

Just as you'd restore a crushed can by reinflating it rather than working out each dent individually, it’s far easier to fix the skull by simply inflating it.

Reviv inflates the skull

The Reviv approach is essentially like attaching an air pump to your skull and skeleton, and pumping it like the video above.

By wearing the appliance, you're gradually allowing the soft tissue to stretch and expand like a balloon, which provides the space that allows the cranial bones to return back to their proper alignment naturally.

This process happens a little bit each day, steadily restoring proper structure without the need for manual manipulation or anything else.

The beauty of Reviv is its simplicity - you don't need osteopaths or other bodyworkers to achieve results. You also don't need to worry about diet or exercise regimens.

It works anyway! And it works beautifully!

Closing thoughts

I think trying to address specific cranial strains is not a good use of time unless you’re recovering from an impact insury.

This also explains why manual therapy results are often temporary - you’re just shifting things around like the crushed can.

And Reviv is the equivalent of blowing into the can and allowing all the little dents to work themselves out till you pretty much have perfection.

In the process you are fixing all of the cranial strain patterns in a way that it stays fixed. Because you haven’t just moved the bones, rather you have also stretched the soft tissue that was holding the bones in the wrong position earlier.

And if you haven’t done Reviv you’re probably scratching your head right now thinking i’ve completely lost it.

Whereas those that have tried Reviv are probably scratching their heads thinking… “yeah… this is all starting to make sense.”
