Thru The Chapters

In today's episode, we will begin the chapter on lower cervical corrections by discussing adjustments on the knee chest table, which can also apply to the HiLo table as well.  These adjustments are intended to be very precise, so we will look at how to do them with precision. 

In today's episode, we will be discussing corrections of the mid and upper thoracic vertebra on the knee chest table.  It is important to understand the proper technique in order to create a correction and not merely a cavitation. 

In today's episode, we will conclude our discussion on palpation. This includes positioning as well as technique for proper assimilation of information. 

In today's episode, we will begin Chapter 16 on Thoracic Corrections.  We will be covering adjustments on the knee chest table as well as the lower thoracic spine exclusively.

In today's episode, we will look at the elements of a clinical examination and how we should put the information together to determine what is in the best interest of the patient.  This is not about choosing one method of diagnosis, but it is about compiling data into a complete clinical picture. 

In today's episode, we talk exclusively about corrections on the knee chest table.  This includes proper patient set up and relaxation, as well as doctor stance and technique.  This is an important table for all Gonstead Chiropractors to use on a daily basis and it begins with a proper understanding of what to do and how to do it. 

In today's episode, we will finish our discussion of the Vertebral Subluxation Complex and how we can think about it scientifically. We will conclude the chapter by discussing different proposed mechanisms for how the VSC can contribute to lower health and adaptability. 

In today's episode, we will begin discussing Lumbar Corrections.  We will do this by discussing how we make these corrections on the pelvic bench.  Next week, we will discuss the same corrections on the knee chest table.  

In today's episode, we will discuss sacral corrections at the lumbosacral joint (base posterior sacrum).  We will also introduce the knee chest table and its proper application. 

In today's episode we will continue to discuss the vertebral subluxation complex.  We will look at the biomechanics around this lesion and how it has effects that go beyond biomechanics. 

In today's episode, we will begin discussing the correction of the sacrum.  This includes both involved side up and involved side down.  It is important to consider the movement of the joint in order to create the best correction possible.

In today's episode, we will complete the chapter of biomechanics and begin Chapter 3 on Subluxation.  This is an important transition to understand how biomechanics influences subluxation, and how subluxation influences biomechanics. 

In today's episode, we look at the compound listings as well as both push and pull moves. 

In today's episode, we will discuss the biomechanics of locomotion as well as coupled motion and how this will improve out understanding of what we are seeing on an X-ray. 

In today's episode, we will begin discussing ilium corrections beginning with the EX pull move.  This move is difficult, but it gives us all of the necessary components to properly perform any of the adjustments on the pelvic bench. 

In today's episode, we continue to build a biomechanical base by looking at the physical components of the joint.

In today's episode, we cover the proper procedure for patient palpation.  This includes an understanding of how to interpret our findings to ensure that we know what we think we know. 

In today's episode, we will begin Chapter 2 and an introduction to biomechanics, particularly the biomechanics that are relevant to the chiropractor.  This is an essential foundation for understanding everything else that is yet to come in this book. 

In today's episode, we will begin our exploration into motion palpation.  This is something that is rarely taught as a system within the system, but here we will look at the basic technique and principles for obtaining reliable information from the patient's body.

In today's episode, we will talk about the method for proper scoping.  How the scope should be held, how to maintain proper contact, and proper glide speed are all topics that will be addressed.  This episode is essential for anyone who is just getting started and wants to learn how to scope properly. 

In today's episode, we will begin Chapter 11 on Instrumentation by talking about the theory of Instrumentation. In order to properly interpret our Instrumentation findings, we must first know what we are looking for and what it means. This section will teach us how to do that. 

In today's episode, we will cover the proper technique for taking full spine films.  It is important to use proper technique as well as patient positioning to ensure that the films are of the highest quality.  

In today's episode, we will be looking at misalignments of the Occiput as it relates to the Atlas.  This section will give us a thorough understanding of the biomechanics as it relates to Occipital misalignment so we can create a plan for proper correction. 

In today's episode, we look specifically at the atlas.  Once it has been determined that there is a subluxation of the atlas, it is necessary to evaluate it on x-ray in order to determine its exact location and the proper method of correction. 

In today's episode, we will complete our reading of the book by discussing some final physics concepts and how they help us to understand biomechanical motion.
