Abstract
Objective: To measure the immediate neurological effects of subluxation based chiropractic care.
Clinical Features: A 26-year-old male patient was evaluated with thermal instrumentation before and after vertebral subluxations were detected and adjusted.
Intervention and Outcomes: Torque Release Technique® protocol was utilized for both evaluation and application of care. Low-force adjustments were performed with an FDA approved instrument (the Integrator) for reducing vertebral subluxations. Changes were measured with spinal thermography.
Conclusions: After applying subluxation based chiropractic via Torque Release Technique®, the patient showed immediate improvement in neurological function. These results were measured with pre- and post- adjustment thermal scans. The decreased asymmetry in thermal readings demonstrates that reducing subluxations may immediately improve neurological function.
