I recently became aware of the term "Crossinology" through a rather long, twisting, and ultimately unimportant path.

www dot crossinology dot com

It stinks of woo, but am I just coming late to the party? My usual skeptical references don't have anything in the way of records.

My particular favorite: it explains how the Brain Integration Technique works with the electromagnetic (sic) flow of information in the brain, and how they "change brain function from the inside out."
 
Crossinology... apparently named for it's inventor, Susan McCrossin. I'd never heard of it either. I checked on Wikipedia, but it's so obscure it's not even on there yet.

It does make some very bold claims on her website...

Welcome to Crossinology® Brain Integration Technique (BIT), a revolutionary stress management process that permanently improves the flow of information in the brain in less than ten hours, with no drugs or surgery.

This relaxing, non-invasive therapy has been shown to:

End ADD, ADHD, Dyslexia, and other specific learning disablities
Permanently improve memory and concentration
Permanently improve spelling and reading
Permanently improve planning and multi-tasking
Permanently improve balance and co-ordination
Crossinology BIT is a proven method, backed by research including a 64-point electrode study. Most treatments involve medication, giving on-going exercises to do indefinitely, purely removing emotional stress, or changing the format of how material is presented to the student. The work we do actually changes the functioning of the brain. We do not engage in the prescription or recommendation of any pharmaceuticals, supplements or devices.

BIT optimizes brain function in children and adults
BIT is an alternative, drug-free therapy for the correction of ADD, ADHD, Dyslexia, and other learning difficulties
BIT is a permanent, self-maintaining solution that does not require exercises or medication

I clicked on the research link, but all I found was three papers by the woman selling the treatment... two if you ignore the one about about Ritalin. From the description of the other papers, I'm guessing this is just some kind of biofeedback therapy using an EEG.

I have to go... my crackpot detector is buzzing.

Mine just exploded:

From that site:
BIT uses kinesiology, acupressure and Applied Physiology formatting to provide a powerful way to set up the ‘biocomputer’ of the body for correction. Accordingly, Prerequisite Training for BIT will cover the following topics:

The history of kinesiology
The science behind kinesiology and ‘muscle monitoring’, including Spindle Cells and Golgi Tendon Organs
The procedure for muscle monitoring, and ensuring an accurate muscle monitor
Using acupuncture meridians, points and alarm points with kinesiology
The language of building circuits, including the Pause-Lock mechanism, stacking, modes and mudras, and challenging circuits
The Frontal-Occipital Hold, and how and why it corrects imbalances
Determining percentage of imbalance
Calibrating your own self-muscle monitor
Correcting environmental sensitivities and toxicities, including allergies, Candida, and electromagnetics
