Lecture:

The Scientific Basis for CBP Technique: A Research Review of the Harrison Ideal & Average Full Spine Sagittal Model, Subluxation Analysis, Measurement Reliability & Treatment Outcome Studies

A four tiered approach to categorize CBP Technique spinal research will assist in learning. The first tier presents the Harrison ideal and average spinal model of the sagittal plane curvatures. Qualitative geometric shapes, quantitative values of spinal curvature, and validity of the spinal model will be the focus.

The second tier discusses applications of the spinal model for the description of vertebral Subluxation. CBP Technique emphasizes four types of structural displacements of the upright spinal column. Research on two of these displacements, posture displacements and consequent spinal coupling patterns and alterations of the sagittal plane curves (buckling) will be described.

Tier three is the reliability and validity of the measurement of the spinal displacements described in tier two. CBP utilizes x-ray mensuration procedures to quantify spinal displacements on spinal radiographs and utilizes posture analysis to categorize displacement of the head, thorax, and pelvis as rotations and translations in three-dimensions. Research on the reliability of x-ray positioning, line drawing, and postural analysis is the focus.

The fourth tier includes research on CBP Technique patient outcomes using the information in the first 3 tiers. Here, improvements in spinal alignment, patient outcomes, and treatment dosage will be discussed.


Workshop:

Basics of CBP Technique: Application of Mirror Image Exercise, Mirror Image Adjustment, & Mirror Image Traction for the Reduction of Cervical, Thoracic, and Lumbar Spinal Subluxations

The CBP Technique protocol of care will be used as the outline for initial patient treatment recommendations; categorized as Relief care and Corrective care. Initially, in Relief care, CBP Technique utilizes traditional segmental adjustment techniques to improve joint mobility, muscle function, and pain. The primary goal and focus of CBP is Corrective care.

In Corrective care, unique CBP Technique Mirror Image exercise, adjustment, and traction (E.A.T.) procedures are utilized to improve/reduce spine and posture displacements. The attendee will learn the application of the Mirror Image E.A.T procedures for two primary categories of spinal Subluxation: 1) posture displacements as rotations and translations and their consequent spinal coupling patterns, and 2) abnormalities of the sagittal plane curves, termed sagittal buckling.

Specifically, Mirror Image adjustments using unique drop table and hand held instrument setups will be presented. Mirror Image exercises for the correction of rotations and translation of the head, thorax, and pelvis will be shown. Lastly, several types of Mirror Image traction methods will be shown.
