From the Director's Desk

As chiropractors around the world tighten their focus on treating back pain, it’s important to continually revisit the long held beliefs that are associated with treating back pain, as models for understanding cause and effect. This month, Dr. Seaman, the famous “Deflame Doc,” brings his critical evaluation of a long held belief of mechanical low back pain, and how the idea is a misnomer at the least, and possibly even scientifically impossible. Flip to page 18 now to learn more about reconsidering mechanical low back pain.

Common sources of low back pam, and pam all over the body are often due to some form of soft tissue injury. Flip to page 32 now to learn about Dr. C. Tyrell Hummel's journey, and how he ended up using the Fascial Distortion Model as a catalyst to healing in his patients, from blue collar workers right up to professional athletes.

Another new treatment being utilized m climes is neurofeedback training. This is a new form of treatment for brain conditions designed to re-train the brain into new patterns of thinking, thereby “un-subluxing” the brain. Take this chance to learn more about this new type of expansion into the chiropractic clinic, by flipping to page 26 now, and learn from Trish Leigh, PhD, BCN, about her experience on improving these conditions.

This issue is being mailed along with The Chiropractic Assistant, so be sure to look for it on page 1 of the magazine. Look for this issue, and all the editions of the CA online at digital.theamericanchiropractor.com
