What Is Chiropractic Kinesiology?
Chiropractic therapy, also known as "spine (fixed-point) rotation reduction method", is used to restore the spine and the back of the spine by rehabilitating techniques such as splitting and plucking, pressing and relieving. A method for treating diseases such as spinal injuries.
Chiropractic
Right!
- The treatment of spinal (fixed-point) rotation reduction can promote rotation and stretching of the intervertebral space, fibrous annulus, and intervertebral ligament, resulting in peripheral pressure on the prominent nucleus pulposus and easy protrusion of the protrusion. The spinous process was deflected, and the vertebral joints were able to return to their normal (or compensatory) anatomical positions to adapt to the surrounding muscle groups (known as "osteosynthesis" and "tendons" in ancient medical records), and the joints were released. The compression of the sac and the ligamentum flavum on the nerve root improves the vertebral artery blood flow. In addition, applying rotation to those with small joint stiffness can also release adhesions, increase range of motion, and relieve pain.
- In the application of this therapy, the surgeon should first touch the patient's spine with his finger, check whether the position of the spinous process of each related vertebra is normal, whether there is tenderness near the spinal spine, whether the paravertebral muscles become thick, contracture, peeling, etc., and then The corresponding rejuvenation technique was used for treatment. For the examination and diagnosis of disc herniation, Feng Tianyou proposed the following four characteristics: (1) The position of the spinous process of the vertebrae is skewed. When the doctor makes a spine palpation with the thumb, he can find a series of signs of the deviated spinous process; (2) the wide and narrow interstitial space of the affected spine; (3) the tenderness of the paraspinal process, or with lower limbs Radiation pain; (4) Strip-like stripping of the superior spinal ligament of the affected area, touching the blunt thickness, and tenderness is obvious. Anyone who has one or two characteristics clinically can be diagnosed.
- This therapy has a good effect on traumatic spinal diseases such as cervical spondylosis, lumbar disc herniation, and some traumatic paraplegia. Some patients even have immediate results. In addition, some diseases such as hypertension, arrhythmia, posttraumatic syndrome, visual impairment or blindness, and deafness caused by spondylosis can also obtain certain effects during the rehabilitation process.
- For cervical spondylosis, dizziness after trauma, posttraumatic brain trauma syndrome, ear and eye deafness, and numbness in shoulder and arm pain, the symptoms of head, face, neck, and arm are the main symptoms. The diseased vertebrae should be checked and determined at the cervical spine, and Apply the corresponding rejuvenation technique.
- For arrhythmia, epigastric pain, intercostal neuralgia, and diarrhea, the main symptoms are thoracic and abdominal symptoms. The diseased vertebrae should be checked and identified at the thoracic spine, and corresponding methods should be applied.
- For patients with low back pain, numbness in the lower extremities, and defecation disorders, the examination and rehabilitation techniques should focus on the lumbar spine.
- Elderly and frail, women pregnant, menstrual period, patients with acute infectious diseases or serious heart, lung, liver, kidney and other organic diseases, tumors and bone tuberculosis, even if the surgeon's technique is extremely skilled, this treatment is also used with caution .
- 1. With this therapy, accurate positioning of the diseased vertebra is a prerequisite for effectiveness, and skilled rehabilitation techniques are the key to improving efficacy. Examination of inaccurate positioning or omission of the diseased vertebra, and wrong judgment of the direction of the spinous process can all make the curative effect insignificant and even worsen the condition. The rectification method must be accurate, with gentle force, and must not be rough.
- 2. During the treatment, one treatment can not dial out the deviated spinous process, and it is not suitable for continuous treatment. You can cooperate with massage methods such as split muscles and massage to relieve spasms, and then apply the treatment. Some patients need to be treated once every few days, and 4 or 5 consecutive treatments can be used to correct the skewed spinous process. Don't rush to achieve success.
- 3 When this therapy is applied to the cervical spine, improper techniques may stimulate the vertebral artery and cause collapse, and individual patients may cause iatrogenic spinal injuries and lead to severe paraplegia and other serious consequences.
- Clinical data show that patients with cervical syndrome, lumbar disc herniation, and other diseases can be relieved or significantly effective after treatment with this therapy for an average of four or five times; in some cases, it can be cured with one treatment. Since several cases of patients with cervical spondylosis have reported high paraplegia in clinical application of this therapy, some people think that considering the characteristics of the neck anatomy, it is not appropriate to use this therapy. However, most people believe that cervical spondylosis is a syndrome, and this therapy is a targeted treatment for neck symptoms caused by facet joint interlocking, disorder, and spinous process deviation. Generally speaking, as long as the laws of indications and treatment methods are strictly grasped, even if novices apply this therapy, it is extremely rare to cause iatrogenic injuries to patients. In addition, the principle of paying attention to proper rest and functional exercise after manual treatment is also essential to consolidate the treatment effect. In recent years, the expansion of the scope of treatment of this therapy shows that it is a unique TCM therapy with great development prospects, which needs further research and improvement.
- Chiropractic is regarded as a foreign product. This method is mainstream in the United States, Canada, Japan, Italy, France, Britain, Australia and other countries. There are 50,000 chiropractic surgeons in the United States, and it is medical in Canada and Australia. Independent treatments within the scope of insurance. He originated in the late 19th century. When Daniel David Palmer of Canada moved to the United States and opened a clinic in Iowa, he found that an early deaf patient had an ectopic spine. After he pushed it back to his normal position with his hand, the patient He actually restored hearing, so he reasoned that the disjointed spine pressed on the nerves, which would interfere with normal muscles, breathing, circulation, digestion, and resistance. If the spine was displaced, it would be pushed back to its original position by hand to restore the spine. After a good curve, the condition can be resolved, which is the birth of "Chiropractic". In 1897, Parma founded the Chiropractic Society, and taught the theory and development of therapeutic methods. Since then, Chiropractic has been extended.
- Chiropractic believes that the normal physiological curvature of the spinal bone on the sagittal plane and the normal vertical state on the horizontal plane are the basic conditions to provide the function of the autonomic nerve. All the soft tissues and organ functions of the human body can be "hanged", all relying on the bones The system's help, and the skeletal system's support is all in the spine, with the skull on top of the spine, the sacrum hanging below, and the spinal cord protected in the middle. The spinal cord is the main axis of the peripheral nerves, and the peripheral nerves are separated from the middle of the spinal bone in pairs. Spread left and right and up and down. In addition to the peripheral nerves, it is also associated with the sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves of the autonomic nervous system, so it can be said that the primary point of the neural network begins in the spine. The spine is composed of seven cervical vertebrae, twelve thoracic vertebrae, five lumbar vertebrae, and a large sacral vertebra. The nerves come out from the spinal cord through the space between the vertebrae. Once the spine is displaced, or generated Compression or even the surrounding muscles and tense ligament tissues will directly affect the nerves that pass through, indirectly causing the terminal organs, muscles, or secretory glands of the nerve supply, resulting in disease clusters throughout the body.
- Chiropractic medicine uses special methods based on the perspective of biomechanics, combined with acupuncture, warming moxibustion, scraping, pricking, cupping, small needle knife, acupoint massage, and physical therapy to treat the bones of the neck, chest, lumbar spine and pelvis. Strains, stiffness, or degenerative changes in joints, intervertebral discs, and spine-related soft tissues are adjusted to restore the biomechanical balance within the spine; release of acute and chronic injuries to the soft tissues (muscles, ligaments, fascia, nerves, blood vessels, etc.) around the spine Pathological changes to adjust the external biomechanical balance and balance of qi and blood, yin and yang, to treat spinal dislocation, soft tissue around the spine and new secondary spine-related diseases, to achieve "adjust the balance of the spine and treat the underlying cause" For the purpose of this, there is also a saying that "osteosynthesis and osteosynthesis do not understand medicine at all; osteosynthesis does not reshape the spine, and a lot of pain".
- Although walking upright frees both hands and achieves a leap in intelligence, it also brings unexpected problems to humans. The human spine has similarities to the spines of other four-footed vertebrates. Before standing and walking, the general morphology of the spine is the same as that of the four-footed vertebrate. The cervical, thoracic, lumbar, and sacral vertebrae are on a curved horizontal plane. After humans walk upright, the cervical spine, thoracic spine, lumbar spine, and sacral spine begin to form a vertical alignment from horizontal alignment, and gradually form a lumbar curve and cervical curve. This Permian-style vertical arrangement will undoubtedly increase the load on the underlying spine and make the cervical spine and The thoracic spine, lumbar spine, and sacrum are more likely to strain and hurt (because the relative movement between the thoracic spine and lumbar spine is less, so the situation is slightly better). Once the spine is misaligned, it is easier to make the nerves inside the spine and the spine Tissues such as ligaments, muscles, etc. cause tension or compression, but also cause abnormal friction between bones, which should be one of the important reasons for bone hyperplasia, and the hyperplasia of bone will also affect other muscles, nerves or ligaments Organizations make an impact. Not correcting the relative position difference between the spine, just eliminating the proliferative bone is the same as the joke that cut the exposed arrow body part after the middle arrow, it is a method to cure the symptoms and not the root cause, and the "arrow" that causes the cause is still left. In the body too!
