What marks completion in Ear Pull/Tentorium Cerebelli Release?

• A. Maximum treatment effect attained
• B. Recheck reveals continued restriction
• C. Immediate patient release
• D. Tissue edema observed

Answer: (A)

Completion is indicated by reaching the maximum treatment effect—the point at which the ear pull and tentorium release produce the full, palpable release of restriction and the cranial motion pattern becomes balanced and no further perceptible change occurs with continued technique. In other words, you stop when the tissues and motion have achieved their optimal response and additional manipulation no longer yields a noticeable improvement. If a recheck shows continued restriction, that signals more work is still needed rather than completion. Immediate release would be premature and could cut off the opportunity for a fuller release, and tissue edema would point to irritation or excessive force rather than a completed correction.
