Cranial osteopathic manipulation technique for brain and cranial nerve function, known as the fourth ventricle compression (CV4), has been recognized. Rib raising (RR), aimed at reducing rib restriction and conditions associated with sympathetic hypertonia, is also employed. This study aimed to assess, in about 109 healthy individuals, the effects of osteopathic techniques (CV4 and RR) on autonomic nervous system (ANS) activity, as measured by heart rate variability (HRV).
