Which statement is NOT correct about the described Chapman points?

• A. The anterior urethra point is at the medial aspect of the pubic ramus near the superior pubic symphysis
• B. The anterior prostate and broad ligament point is at the trochanter downward on lateral aspect of the femur to within 2 inches of the knee joint
• C. The posterior prostate and broad ligament point is between PSIS and SP of L5
• D. The posterior prostate and broad ligament point is located on the iliac crest

Answer: (D)

Chapman reflex points are small, reproducible locations on the body's fascia that correlate with specific visceral organs; they guide palpation and treatment in visceral osteopathy. For the pelvic organs, the anterior points tend to be near the pubic region and along the medial thigh area, while the posterior points appear in the lower back/sacral-paraspinal region. The anterior urethra point is described as being at the medial aspect of the pubic ramus near the superior pubic symphysis, which fits the typical anterior-perineal/pubic region pattern. The anterior prostate and broad ligament point is described along paths extending from the proximal thigh region, consistent with how some Chapman mappings place anterior points for pelvic structures. The posterior prostate and broad ligament point is described as lying between the PSIS and the L5 spinous process, placing it in the sacral–paraspinal area, which matches the usual posterior approach for pelvic organs. The statement that the posterior prostate and broad ligament point is located on the iliac crest is not consistent with standard Chapman mappings; the iliac crest is not a typical site for these posterior pelvic points. Therefore, that location is not correct.
