Biomechanics in Chiropractic Practice

About Course

The Biomechanics in Chiropractic Practice course is designed to familiarize students with the principles of normal musculoskeletal motion and its connection to diagnosing neuromusculoskeletal ailments and diseases. The course covers articulations, spinal biomechanics, extremity movements, and kinesiology, integrating lecture materials with case studies for practical illustration.

Course Content

Module 1: Introduction to Biomechanics in Chiropractic
Overview of biomechanics and its relevance to chiropractic care Introduction to the relationship between structure and function Basic concepts in diagnosing and treating neuromusculoskeletal issues Historical perspective and evolution of different listing systems Safety considerations and best practices in motion palpation

Module 2: Articulations and Joint Biomechanics
