1
Q

DD Palmer

A

founder of chiropractic (1895)

first to use short levers (spinous and TVP)

2
Q

tone

A

nerves too tense or too slack

foundation of chiropractic is based on

3
Q

nerve compression theory

A

causes of subluation are chemical, mechanical and psychic

4
Q

innate intelligence

A

coined the term innate from Christianity

5
Q

DD Palmer learned chiropractic from?

A

eastern european bone setters

6
Q

chiropractic philosophy is based upon

A

the principle of structure (spinal column) to function (NS for healing)

7
Q

innate is simiilar to

A

homeostasis (self regulating and self healing)

8
Q

vitalism

A

suggests the body requires something greather than physical and chemical processes to function

9
Q

BJ palmer

A
developer of chiropractic
introduced neurocalometer
meric chart of nerve testing
HIO technique
cord compression theory
10
Q

neruocalometer

A

hand held instrument used to detct heat imbalances

11
Q

HIO technique

A

C1 or C2 are capable of subluxating and producing significant probles

12
Q

carver

A

subluxations are from abnormal biomechanics caused by muscle imbalance in a weight earing spine
pelvic distortion model

13
Q

pelvic distortion model

A

basic distortion of the spine starts in pelvis

14
Q

gillet

A

considers the process of mechanical joint dysfunction through three different phases of joint fixation: muscular, ligamentous, articular.
he maintains that ligamentous or articular fixation are the most significant

15
Q

faye

A

fixation theory of joint typermobility

16
Q

hahnemann

A

father of homeopathy

17
Q

homeoopathy

A

treats patients with heavily diluted preparations which are thought to cause effects similar to the symptoms presented

18
Q

hippocrates

A

father of modern medicine

first to manipulate

19
Q

illi

A

joint hypermobility; described SI movement and pelvic dynamics.
discovered/tested SI ligaments

20
Q

kirkaldy willis

A

presents a pattern of spinal degeneration founded on the principle that spinal degeneration often begins with local mechanical derangement in the absence of structural alteraltion
process is often initiated with development of individual motion segment dysfunction secondary to alteration in segmental muscle tone and function

21
Q

joint hypermobility is speculated to?

A

initiate the degenerative cycle through development of altered segmental biomechanics
if this persists this leads to local joint instability
if derangement is of significant magnitude, osseous strucural alteration occurs and degeneration of the joint is radiographically visible

22
Q

3 phase model of instability

A

dysfuction
unstable
stabilization (joint hypermobility, instability, degeneration)

23
Q

korr

A

segmental facilitation theory
established the concept of subluxation creating a hyperactive nervous system rather than a decrease in nerve impulses
muscle is central to his theory

24
Q

logan

A

founder of logan basic technique

sacrum as keystone to spine and first to use heel lifts

25
Q

selye

A

general aaptation syndrome states under optimum conditions the body can respond to stressors

26
Q

stephenson

A

wrote chiropractic textbook

identified 33 principles of chiropractic and safety spin cyel

27
Q

still, andrew tayler

A

founder of osteopathy; related the integrity of the spine and skeleton to the proper functioning of the circulatory system

28
Q

weed, samuel

A

named chiropractic

29
Q

gonstead

A

all subluxations are posterior

30
Q

cox

A

flexion/distraction (disc)

31
Q

dejarnette

A

SOT

CSF flow

32
Q

grostic

A

UC technique

33
Q

chiropractic paradigm

A

body is self regulating ad self healing organsim
nervous system is the master system that regulates and controls all other organs and tissues tnd relates the individual to their environment
spinal biomechanical dysfunction in the form of vertebral subluxation complex may adversely affect the nervous system’s ability to regulate function
central focus of chiropractic is to optimize patient health by correcting, managing or minimizing vertebral subluxation through chiropractic spinal adjustment
