Official title
Evaluation of Instantaneous Changes in EEG Activation Patterns Following Application of a Chiropractic Adjustment to the Cervical Spine
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The project is a randomized, two-arm trial assessing the immediate impact of upper and lower cervical chiropractic adjustments on brain and heart patterns. Thirty individuals (15 per arm) will be recruited from the general population to participate in the study. Qualified participants will undergo a chiropractic physical exam, assessing for cervical subluxations, and a health history review with a Georgia licensed chiropractor. Individuals will be randomized to either an adjustment group or sham group. The adjustment group will receive an upper and lower cervical adjustment with an instrument designed to provide a gentle, targeted adjustment. The sham group will receive a touch sham at similar cervical locations with the same instrument. Both groups will have a 1-hour recording session with an EEG and ECG set-up plus a series of baseline recordings, interventions, and post recordings.
