What are you thinking man? Talking about the subluxation like it is some kind of bone out of place is so 1950’s. It is all about the nervous system and measuring it is no great problem at all. It can be measured, cross-referenced to a multitude of other measureable factors and corrected by the use of an impulse at a precisely derived point.

[kirokids]

Rolfing is a soft tissue technique. The NeuroImpulse adjustment is a point specific thrust to generate neural stimulation at the right place at the irght time, usually over a joint.

It is derived from the chiropractic toggle recoil thrust and has come a long way since then. Interestingly, it can be applied to soft tissue and seems to cause myofascial release.

I think I see. (Did some more research on rolfing, thanks very much!) So this is an altnerative to the typical approach of palpation of the spine to determine subluxations?

[kirokids]

Thanks for revisting after 1 year. This is very much an alternative to what is known as motion palpation since we are also gathering neurological evidence, not just biomechanical information about join motion. Since neural function is what chiropractic is all about, we believe chiropractors need to examine more than just range of motion and feel soft tissue changes.

[kirokids]

There are many methods varying from motion palpation of the facet joints, more subtle palpation of the soft tissues, measuring overall or global active range of motion of the spinal areas including extremity joints and using neural tests to determine nervous function.

Motion palpation is taught at all chiropractic colleges and is fine tuned in courses like NIP and others at post-graduate level.

There is no such thing as a Subluxation. Ask five chiropractors to read an X-ray and find subluxations and you'll get get five different results. Chiropractors don't even agree on what a subluxation actually is.

Does anybody outside of the Chiropractic community know that I, as a Chiropractic student, had 1 full year of Anatomy WITH cadaver dissection? Do you know that the average undergraduate education is 120 credits, and here at NYCC (New York Chiropractic college) in order to graduate we need a total of 225 credits? Gee for a profession of quacks we sure have a lot of graduate level education.

@workingstiff76 You need to find five good chiros. I already done this test and got 100% of agreement.

@Scottrchrdsn But golly willikers Scotty! You are in chiropractic...Everyone is Scotty. Chiropractic is in innate. Chiropractic helps the body express its g-d givin innate intelligence. Scotty! We're related dude! We're both from the same species. Yee ha! Our war is over... Come Scotty! Let's git you a chiropractic spinal adjustment! Viva Chiropractic!

[chiropractic47]

@Scottrchrdsn You seem to have this awkward and aloof facination with death Scotty. I have a good ear and some patience...go on chap...tell me more about yourself...when and where did this all begin.... Along with the appropriate psychological counseling, please consider nervous system relaxing chiropractic care. Peace.

[Scottrchrdsn]

I bet you have killed somebody, or at least caused a few strokes.

[chiropractic47]

@Scottrchrdsn Sorry chap...all my patients (10,000 active patient files) have been accounted for and all are in general good health. Nope... no deaths on my watch, and I still pay $1500/year malpractice insurance, with no claims made. What did you kill Scotty?

[Scottrchrdsn]

@chiropractic47 I have a VERY serious question to ask you. And, I want a truthful answer (presuming you are capable of such). Question is: How many people have you, personally, killed by doing cervical manipulations that caused a stroke? If you have seen even half the patients you claim you have then I bet you have killed a few.

[chiropractic47]

@Scottrchrdsn By keeping you at your computer trolling YouTube chiro vids instead of roaming the streets murdering prostitutes...I'd say your chiropractic envy has saved you Scotty.

[Scottrchrdsn]

@chiropractic47 Chiropractic has never saved anybody.
