Chiropractic Adjustment

General

• Go through all bones/muscles of body
• Feel for tightness

Example 1:

Steps

1. Start by feeling the back for tight spots.
2. By sacrum - feel and press down left, right, and center. Sacral Hiatus is where the spinal cord leaves the spine. Spinal tubercles are the bumps on the spine, like on a stegosaurus.
3. look at legs - put feet together, see if legs are the same length
4. See if back is higher on one side than other.
5. Start manipulating Cervical-Thoracic Junction
6. Start with T1 on the left, crack neck around T1, then drop to T2 and crack toward the other side. See more in depth on C1-C7 spine bones - How to Crack Your Neck.
7. Drop down with both hands in a haert [1] - patient breathes in and out all the way - and chiropractor thrusts down rapidly.
8. Do this in 3 locations going further down T. [2]
9. Check the length of the feet - feet got closer to the same length! See now [3] compared to before [4].
10. Now go down to lumbar spine area. First, check out the sacrum. Stabilize down on the sacrum with one hand [5], and have patient raise right leg and left leg [6]. Observe any differences.
11. Cross tight side leg over the loose one. [7]
