A Randomized Controlled Trial of Best Approach to Care Compared to Diversified Chiropractic Adjustive Technique
September 12, 2005 updated by: Parker College of Chiropractic
A Randomized Controlled Trial of Best Approach to Care Compared to Diversified Adjustive Technique
There are a variety of treatment approaches used by the chiropractic profession.
Some of these require forceful joint manipulation and some do not.
This study is designed to compare outcomes of two such techniques that are common to chiropractic practice.
The hypothesis is that there is no difference between forceful and non-forceful approaches to treatment.
