Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The topic of spinal manipulation (SM) has been a source of increasing research over the past decade. Research has focused primarily upon the functional and clinical outcomes associated with SM. The physiological mechanisms underlying the clinical changes experienced following SM are still largely unknown. Current thought suggests that SM may have an effect upon the neurophysiological system, specifically the autonomic nervous system. The purpose of this study will be to explore the effects of SM upon the autonomically regulated cardiovagal response.
