Abstract BACKGROUND: Previous studies have demonstrated the existence era reflex response, measurable by surface electromyography (sEMG), after manually delivered spinal manipulative therapy (SMT). This reflex
Abstract OBJECT: Develop an analytical theory describing the dynamics of small impulses applied to vertebrae, such as in chiropractic adjustments or spinal manipulative therapy. DESIGN:
Abstract OBJECTIVE: To discuss a case of coccygodynia that responded favorably to conservative chiropractic adjusting procedures with the Activator Methods Chiropractic Technique (AMCT) and the
Abstract OBJECTIVE: To determine the dynamic force-time and force-frequency characteristics of the Activator Adjusting Instrument and to validate its effectiveness as a mechanical impedance measurement
Abstract PURPOSE: To abstract the essential elements of chiropractic prone leg checking and subject them to controlled, experimental parametric testing. DESIGN: Controlled, objective, repeated-measure analysis
Abstract OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to measure the relative movements of vertebrae during manipulative thrusts to unembalmed post-rigor mortis human cadavers. SETTING:
Abstract BACKGROUND: Circumstances surrounding cerebrovascular accidents after cervical manipulation need further clarification. In particular, more information is needed on the importance of specific techniques. OBJECTIVES:
From the Publisher Introducing the first book published on this low-force adjusting technique! It offers a how-to approach to the AMC technique, guiding you from
Abstract OBJECTIVE: To determine the general nature of the biomechanical response of the vertebrae to small forces, such as spinal manipulative therapy (SMT). DESIGN: Perturbation
Abstract: The objective of this article is to describe several cases (n = 3) in which patients with plantar fasciitis, associated with heel spurs, were
