• Cranial osteopathy, a forerunner of CST, become originated with the aid of Sutherland in 1898–1900. While looking at a disarticulated cranium, Sutherland became struck by using the concept that the cranial sutures of the temporal bones where they meet the parietal bones had been "beveled, like the gills of a fish, indicating articular mobility for a respiration mechanism."

• From 1975 to 1983, Upledger and neurophysiologist and histologist Ernest W. Retzlaff labored at Michigan State University as medical researchers and professors. They assembled a research team to analyze the purported pulse and further have a look at Sutherland's concept of cranial bone motion. Later impartial critiques of these research concluded that they offered no proper evidence for the effectiveness of craniosacral remedy or the existence of the proposed cranial bone motion.
