Introduction

The purpose of this presentation is to review the basic principle behind Chiropractic diagnostic approach to bio-mechanical spinal disorders. Emphasize will be made on the important concept of Intersegmental Dysfunction (I.S.D.), and its effect on overall spinal bio-mechanical function. Also the other important components of I.S.D., which involve much further than just the bio-mechanical aspects, will be reviewed. These can have rather important manifestations particularly in chronic cases and if unrecognized, can lead to inadequate treatment protocols allowing further regression in ISD staging.
