For Healthcare Providers

PCPs · PTs · Neurologists · Dentists · ER Providers

Dr. Foss accepts referrals from medical providers across the San Antonio metro for cases where chiropractic, manual therapy, and cranial work add value to medical management.

Common PT Co-Management

Patients who plateau on PT, structural issues that require manipulation, and post-discharge maintenance. We coordinate directly with your PT plan.

Dental & TMJ Co-Management

TMJ dysfunction requires both occlusal and cranial-cervical management. SOT Craniopathy directly addresses the cranial component most TMJ protocols miss.

Post-Concussion Syndrome

Persistent post-concussive symptoms — headache, vertigo, cognitive fog, neck pain — often involve cranial dysfunction that responds to SOT cranial protocols.

Pediatric Referrals

Torticollis, plagiocephaly, recurrent ear infections, feeding difficulties, sensory processing concerns, ADHD-spectrum kids needing nervous-system support.

Chronic Pain Stuck Cases

Chronic low back pain, fibromyalgia, complex headache presentations, and patients who haven't responded to medical-only management.

Visceral / Functional

CMRT addresses GERD, functional GI issues, menstrual dysfunction, and adrenal-stress patterns through neurologic reflex work — complementary to medical management.
