About This Book

A compact clinical manual for students and practitioners that begins with detailed instruction in vertebral palpation and tactile examination, then explains nerve-tracing and the theory, varieties, and identification of subluxations. It lays out general principles and a sequence of specific adjusting techniques, followed by discussion of disease causation, the process of cure, adjunct therapies, and spino-organic (nerve-to-organ) relationships. Supplementary material includes a table linking conditions to adjustments and practical chapters on office equipment, examination schedules, patient management, prognosis, and professional limitations.
