Structurally, joints are classified as: fibrous - bones are connected by fibrous connective tissue. cartilaginous - bones are connected by cartilage. synovial - there is a space (synovial cavity) between the articulating bones. Joint - Fibrous joints. In fibrous joints bones are joined by tight and inflexible layers of dense connective tissue, consisting mainly of collagen fibers. In adults, these are not designed to allow any movement; however, in ...

CHIROPRACTIC

“For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction,” says a law of physics. When a vertebra becomes misaligned (subluxation) due to an external pressure, the Chiropractor can restore the alignment by applying an opposite pressure in the appropriate manner to correct the misalignment.

Subluxation of the vertebra can cause pressure on spinal cord nerve tissues, interfering with the nerves’ ability to conduct impulses to other tissues and organs, thus directly affecting one's overall health. See also below Chiropractic-Network and Kinesiology.

Contact Reflex Analysis (CRA): Variation of applied kinesiology cofounded by Dick A. Versendaal, D.C., author of Contact Reflex Analysis and Designed Clinical Nutrition.

According to Contact Reflex Analysis theory,

(a)           the surface of the human body has about seventy-five reflex points that serve as windows to numerous conditions, and

(b)           (b) the back of the hand is electronegative, the palm is positive, and the fingers are neutral.

The practitioner pulls downward on the patient's outstretched arm while he keeps part of his hand on a reflex point. Arm weakness indicates an incipient or full-blown health problem whose identity depends on the reflex point.

BRAIN GYM

Created by Paul and Gail Dennison, Brain Gym (or Educational Kinesiology and Edu-K) is a sensorimotor program based on research by educational therapists, developmental optometrists, and other specialists in the fields of movement, education, and child development.

Brain Gym consists of 26 targeted activities similar to those performed naturally by young children as part of the process of brain development. Brain Gym prepares learners with the physical skills they need to read, write, concentrate, organize, and otherwise function effectively in the classroom or the adult workplace.
