Description
This course introduces the concept of clinical biomechanics as it applies to the practice of chiropractic. The objective of the course is to gain an understanding of the clinical biomechanics of the spine, pelvis, and extremities as this forms the foundation to be able to scientifically diagnose and apply treatment to correct the vertebral subluxation complex. This course includes the study of procedures used to evaluate normal and abnormal joint dynamics (subluxation) of the spine, pelvis, and extremities to determine if Chiropractic Manipulative Therapy (CMT) is indicated. The concepts of the subluxation complex and motion and static listing systems are introduced.
