What is Neurovascular?
– Dr. Terence Bennett identified one of his primary guiding principles to be the fact that “[P]ottinger and others had said that every internal organ, gland and tissue had either a direct or reflex connection with the surface of the body” (Bennett, p. 2. derived from Pottinger, “Symptoms of Visceral Disease,” C.V. Mosby, 1922). Based upon this proposition and other aspects of Western anatomy, physiology and his own clinical experience, he mapped out particular points on the body that he correlated with specific tissue, gland and organ function, and dysfunction. Bennett identified 38 specific points on the cranium and anterior torso that were used for diagnostic and/or treatment purposes.
