Subluxation is the loss of joint alignment and integrity. This book describes such injury to the spine. Packed with illustrations and photographs, including advanced imaging (CT scan and MRI) of sections of the spine and pelvis, the atlas makes it easy to recognize the characteristic patterns of subluxations. The common types of changes that occur in the structures of the spine have been classified, documented, and arranged in the order of progressive severity of dislocation and degeneration.

An excellent illustration of cervical postural distortions and the related manifestations which compromise the spinal cord and brain stem. Clearly illustrates the muscles which need to be released to improve spinal health.
