Description

A compact, hands‑on manual for anyone entering the chiropractic field, this text gathers the essential principles and techniques that students need before they begin real‑world practice. Beginning with clear explanations of vertebral palpation, the book guides readers step by step through tactile assessment of spinal segments, emphasizing accurate observation and careful interpretation. It then moves toward the mechanics of adjusting, offering systematic instruction that balances theory with the motions students will soon perform on patients.

Beyond the core skills, the work introduces broader considerations such as preferable adjustments and basic prognosis, giving early practitioners a glimpse of the larger clinical picture. Written with the goal of practical utility rather than ornate style, each chapter is designed for quick reference in the clinic or classroom. The author’s straightforward approach invites continual learning and encourages readers to build a solid foundation before advancing to more complex cases.
