CHIROPRACTIC SKILLS AND
TECHNIQUE 511
Chiropractic Examination Skills I: Palpation
This lecture
and laboratory course addresses the biomechanics and chiropractic
assessment procedures of the spinal and pelvic joints. The student
is introduced to the concepts of biomechanics as they relate to
the kinematics and kinetics of the spine and pelvis and the strucure
and functioning of the tissues of the musculosketal system. This
information is coupled with the diagnostic tools of static and
motion palpation as they pertain to the assessment of spinal joint
functioning.
