In addition, can any of you explain these techniques? Are all of these
techniques actually chiropractic techniques or are some considered adjunctive
therapies, developed by chiropractors?


We can get to the basics of all these techs if people will cooperate and contribute
...from each there is something to be learned.


Are there other techs out there that are not on this list? Please e-mail us the names
of the developers and whatever you know about the technique.


Are some of these techniques the eclectic use of others and which others
were they derived from? We all want to learn more about ourselves and the work we do.



Can many of these techs be combined to form one all-encompassing technique,
either Full Spine or Upper Cervical, that will combine the best and the most
objective aspects of the many, and be distilled down to a few, or even to one?


This web site provides a chance for all of us to learn from one another and
to advance ourselves and the Chiropractic community.


This list will continue to develop as a permanent part of the Table of
Contents of the Full Spine chiro tech site at http://www.chiropractor-doctors.com/,
and the Upper Cervical chiro tech site at http://www.nvb1.com/ .

 

As we receive more input, readers will be able to click on any of these techs and see
what threads, Q's/A's, discussions, ideas, advancements, web site basic
courses, seminars, etc. have grown from the particular technique.

Thanks... from the Moderators.
