After having outlined the theories of cranial osteopathy (SUTHERLAND, KARNI, UPLEDGER, and, more recently, CLAUZADE and DARRAILLANS), the authors refute the latter point by point. "Primary respiration" is in fact a way of thinking, and the various bones making up the calvaria and base of the skull, which are solidly synostosed in the adult, are clearly incapable of the pretended rhythmic displacements "described" by the osteopaths. Moreover, the C.R.L., like any liquid, is incompressible and mildly pulsatile. Conversely, although the brain clearly shows rhythmic pulsations, which every neuro-surgeon notes every day, the latter are exclusively connected to the vascular system.
在概述了颅骨整骨疗法的理论（萨瑟兰、卡尔尼、乌普莱杰，以及最近的克劳扎德和达拉伊兰斯）之后，作者们逐一反驳了后者的观点。“原发性呼吸”实际上是一种思维方式，而构成颅盖和颅底的各种骨头，在成年人中是牢固地骨性融合的，显然不可能进行整骨疗法从业者“描述”的那种所谓有节奏的移位。此外，脑脊液（C.R.L.）和任何液体一样，是不可压缩的且有轻微搏动。相反，尽管大脑明显显示出有节奏的搏动，每个神经外科医生每天都能注意到，但后者完全与血管系统有关。
