chiro theory- final exam, chiro theory-final (Hagen suggestions)

somatosomatic reflex

what occurs when the spinal joint abnormalities interrupt balance and cause chronic muscle spasm creating a local fixation

somatoautonomic reflex

what occurs when there is irritation and inflammation overstimulating nerves, impacting organs,

viscerosomatic reflex

what is organ dysfunction that can cause spinal pain, leading to subluxation

neurodystrophic (neuroimmune)

what is caused by nerve interference and decreases immunity and response to infectious agents

facilitation theory

what is the theory that a subluxation is a problem of hyperexcitability disrupting reflexes

axoplasmic flow aberration

what occurs with slight pressure on nerves that can slow movement of nutrients in nerves, without interfering with impulses, impacting nerve and organ health

vertebrobasilar arterial insufficiency

what is caused by an upper cervical misalignment placing pressure on vertebral arteries blocking blood to the brain

intraneural microcirculation ischemia

what is pressure on small nerves arteries, essentially starving the nerves

aberrant venous and lymph drainage

what is easily compressed and can impair drainage leading to inflammation, and the swelling will damage the nerves

altered csf flow

what can cause neurological problems

somatophychic

what type of psychosocial model thinks subluxation can impact emotions and sleep

psychogenic

what type of psychosocial models thinks emotions can cause subluxation

posture, chronic anxiety, diaphragm tightness, damage to organs

what are outlets of psychogenic subluxation causes

mechanoreceptor deafferentation

what occurs when subluxations prevent afferent signals from reaching the CNS and they impact the balance, equilibrium, immunity and personality

vicious cycle

what responds to stimulus that causes further stimulation

proprioceptive insult (segmental consternation)

what activates under conditions of pain segments acting alone

hypomobility and fixation

what causes deafferentation especially mechanoreceptros

ataxia dizziness

if a deafferentation occurs in teh CNS what does it lead to

sympathicotonia

what is increased sympathetic stimulation due to somatic dysafferentation

simulated visceral disease model

what occurs when the somatic and visceral afferents share the same pathway, the CNS then misinterprets somatic signals for visceral organs and leads to unnecessary visceral efferent signals

Korr

who was doing research for the osteopathic profession and believed the most critical effect of adjustment is quieting the SNS

vertebral artery dissection

what is the least common mechanism ofr stroke

5 D and 3 N (diplopia, dizzines, dropp attacks, dysarthria and dysphagia/ nausea, numbness, and nystagmus)

what are the main signs of a stroke

trauma, thoughts and toxins

what are the 3 T's that lead to subluxations

somatic tissue

what tissue is affected via traumas (causes of subluxations)

coritcal CNS

what is affected via thoughts (subluxation causes)

visceral

what tissue is affected via toxins (subluxation causes)

hygienic living

what is living naturally in civilized circumstances

james chestnut

who said "eat well, move well and think well"

segmental

what type of technique is specific to the motion segment

postural(structural)

what type of technique addresses the whole spine

tonal

what type of technique addresses the spine and nervous system

*

look at types of techniques used under each broad category

somato-somatice

the subluxation is caused by a muscle imbalance

somato-visceral

the subluxation has an effect on visceral function

viscero-somatic

the visceral causes or perpetuation of the subluxation

somatopsychic

the subluxation affects the psychic state

psychosomatic

the emotional state causes the subluxation

exercise, patterns of behavior, live naturally,

what are three ways to prevent subluxations

trauma, toxins, and thoughts

what are the three T's that cause subluxations

macro

what is the amounts of stress of any sort (one time experience)

micro

what is the amount of stress of any sort that is/are unbalanced, or patterned (continuous)

mechanical

what type of stressors are traumas

chemical

what type of stressors are toxins

emotional

what type of stressors are thoughts

increase

the loeser pain hierarchy says when there is injury, or tissue damage what occurs to the stimulation of nociception?

pain, suffering and pain behavior

the increase in nociception causes an increase in what other aspects in the Loeser pain hierarchy

osteopathy

what is based on manipulation to restore blood flow and is not specific and was "long lever"

chiropractic

what is based on restoration of proper nerve supply NOT blood flow an dis more specific

vitalism

what is the nervous system's function in teh "self-healing" human organism

holism

the whole is greater than the sum of its parts

naturalism

the preference for natural therapies and avoid drugs and surgery

humanism

compassionate manner that requires empathy, nonjudgemental acceptance, congruence and genuiness

conservatism

first do no harm

rationalism

invokes logic and evidence as a basis for clinical reasoning

spinal distortion

what may displace neural complex laterally into the IVF

Transforaminal ligaments

what are accessory ligaments that compartmentalize the IVF and may decrease functional S to I diameter of the IVF by 1/3

nerve roots

what lack the connective tissue sheath of peripheral nerves

roots

what part of the nerves are most sensitive to compression

educated

what is learned intellegence

Innate Intelligence

what is in born intelligence

neurodystrophic

what is due to nerve interference causing a decrease immunity response

axoplasmic flow aberration

what is slight pressure on nerves that can slow movement of nutrients in nerves, without interfering with impulses, they impact nerve and organ health

vertebrobasilar arterial insufficiency

what is an upper cervical misalignment placing pressure on vertebral artery, blocking blood to the brain

intraneural microcirculation ischemia

what is pressure on small nerve arteries, starving the nerves
