Chiropractic in Lancaster County by J
Chiropractic in Lancaster County By J. Calvin Wenger, D. C. The Chiropractic profession was birthed nationwide in Davenport, Iowa in September 1895. It all started when a magnetic healer, Daniel David Palmer, noticed an unusual derangement in the cervical-thoracic spine of a deaf janitor by the name of Harvey Lillard. He performed a manipulation in this area and Mr. Lillard’s hearing was restored. Thus began a process of patient care that eventually evolved into what today is known as the chiropractic profession. A friend of Daniel Palmer, Rev. Samuel Weed, was fluent in Greek and suggested the procedure be called chiropractic, a practice performed by the use of hands. During the next decade the first chiropractic school was established which is still operating and known now as the Palmer University of Chiropractic. Dr. David Palmer's son, Dr. B. J. Palmer, was an unusual and charismatic leader who succeeded his father and became known as the developer of chiropractic. His son Dr. David Pamler became a 3rd generation leader in the profession and married a Lancaster County native, Dr. Agnes High Palmer. In recent years, two other Palmer higher educational institutions have been established in San Jose, California and Port Orange, Florida. Incidentally and interestingly, the other major manipulative health profession, osteopathy, was also discovered in the Mid-West in the latter 1800's in Swiftwater, Missouri by a practitioner by the name of Andrew Still. The major premise of the chiropractic profession is that dysfunctional spinal articulations and pelvic structures will initiate disturbances with the function of the nervous system in a particular spinal area which in tandem negatively influences the normal functions of the body in that particular area. -
Applied Kinesiology Research Articles in Peer Reviewed Journals
APPLIED KINESIOLOGY RESEARCH AND LITERATURE COMPENDIUM -- Edited by Scott Cuthbert, D.C. APPLIED KINESIOLOGY RESEARCH ARTICLES IN PEER REVIEWED JOURNALS Conable KM, Rosner AL. A J Chiro Med. 2011;10(3):157-165. narrative review of manual muscle testing and Abstract Objective: Manual muscle testing (MMT) is used for a variety of purposes in health care by implications for muscle medical, osteopathic, chiropractic, physical therapy, rehabilitation, and athletic training testing research professionals. The purpose of this study is to provide a narrative review of variations in techniques, durations, and forces used in MMT putting applied kinesiology (AK) muscle testing in context and highlighting aspects of muscle testing important to report in MMT research. Method: PubMed, the Collected Papers of the International College of Applied Kinesiology– USA, and related texts were searched on the subjects of MMT, maximum voluntary isometric contraction testing, and make/break testing. Force parameters (magnitude, duration, timing of application), testing variations of MMT, and normative data were collected and evaluated. Results: “Break” tests aim to evaluate the muscle's ability to resist a gradually increasing pressure and may test different aspects of neuromuscular control than tests against fixed resistances. Applied kinesiologists use submaximal manual break tests and a binary grading scale to test short-term changes in muscle function in response to challenges. Many of the studies reviewed were not consistent in reporting parameters for testing. Conclusions: To increase the chances for replication, studies using MMT should specify parameters of the tests used, such as exact procedures and instrumentation, duration of test, peak force, and timing of application of force. -

Complementary and Alternative Medicine
Corporate Medical Policy Complementary and Alternative Medicine File Name: complementary_and_alternative_medicine Origination: 12/2007 Last CAP Review: 2/2021 Next CAP Review: 2/2022 Last Review: 2/2021 Description of Procedure or Service The National Center for Complementary and Integrative Medicine (NCCIH), a component of the National Institutes of Health, defines complementary, alternative medicine (CAM) as a group of diverse medical and health care systems, practices, and products that are not presently considered to be part of conventional or allopathic medicine. While some scientific evidence exists regarding some CAM therapies, for most there are key questions that are yet to be answered through well-designed scientific studies-questions such as whether these therapies are safe and whether they work for the diseases or medical conditions for which they are used. Complementary medicine is used together with conventional medicine. Complementary medicine proposes to add to a proven medical treatment. Alternative medicine is used in place of conventional medicine. Alternative means the proposed method would possibly replace an already proven and accepted medical intervention. NCCIM classifies CAM therapies into 5 categories or domains: • Whole Medical Systems. These alternative medical systems are built upon complete systems of theory and practice. These systems have evolved apart from, and earlier than, the conventional medical approach used in the U.S. Examples include: homeopathic and naturopathic medicine, Traditional Chinese Medicine, Ayurveda, Macrobiotics, Naprapathy and Polarity Therapy. • Mind-Body Medicine. Mind-body interventions use a variety of techniques designed to enhance the mind’s capacity to affect bodily functions and symptoms. Some techniques have become part of mainstream practice, such as patient support groups and cognitive-behavioral therapy. -

Applied J Chiro Med. 2010; 9(3):138-145. kinesiology methods for a 10- year-old child with headaches, Objective: The purpose of this case report is to describe the chiropractic care of a 10-year- neck pain, asthma, and reading old boy who presented with developmental delay syndromes, asthma, and chronic neck and head pain and to present an overview of his muscular imbalances during manual muscle disabilities. testing evaluation that guided the interventions offered to this child. Clinical Features: The child was a poor reader, suffered eye strain while reading, had poor memory for classroom material, and was unable to move easily from one line of text to another during reading. He was using 4 medications for the asthma but was still symptomatic during exercise. Intervention and Outcome: Chiropractic care, using applied kinesiology, guided evaluation, and treatment. Following spinal and cranial treatment, the patient showed improvement in his reading ability, head and neck pain, and respiratory distress. His ability to read improved (in 3 weeks, after 5 treatments), performing at his own grade level. He has remained symptom free for 2 years. Conclusion: The care provided to this patient seemed to help resolve his chronic musculoskeletal dysfunction and pain and improve his academic performance. 1 Applied Kinesiology J.

NCMIC recognizes the importance of preserving the rich history of our profession. This primer will hopefully stimulate your interest in this saga, help you to understand the trials and tribula- tions our pioneers endured, and give you a sense of pride and identity. Lee Iacocca, in his book about LIBERTY said: I know that liberty brings with it some obligations. I know we have it today because others fought for it, nourished it, protected it, and then passed it on to us. That is a debt we owe. We owe it to our parents, if they are alive, and to their memory if they are not. But mostly we have an obligation to our own kids. An obligation to pass on this incredible gift to them. This is how civilization works... whatever debt you owe to those who came before you, you pay to those who follow. That is essentially the same responsibility each of us has to preserve and protect the extraordinary history of this great profession.
