Meet the doctor
A nurse first, then a chiropractor
Dr. Doyle was in nursing school when one S.O.T. adjustment cleared up her own severe sciatic leg pain. She finished her nursing degree, worked as a nurse at Northwestern, then went on to Life Chiropractic College in Marietta, Georgia.
She has practiced chiropractic since 1982, with extensive post-graduate study in Chiropractic Craniopathy and the Sacro-Occipital Technique. “Chiropractors are like wine,” she says. “They get better with age!”

Plate II · The Sacro-Occipital Technique
Two ends of one spine
S.O.T. was developed by Dr. Major Bertrand DeJarnette in the 1920s. It looks at the sacrum, at the base of your spine, and the occiput, at the back of your skull, as two ends of one system, and it is gentle by design.
Dr. Doyle checks how the pelvis sits and how the spine and the skull are moving.
Padded wedges, called blocks, go under the pelvis while you lie on the table. Your own body weight does much of the gentle work.
Low-force corrections follow, from the sacrum up the spine. No quick twists.
Many visits end with relaxing cranial adjusting maneuvers at the head, the other end of the same spine.
