A method and apparatus allows for simple correction of resctricted spinal motion. The clinician applies a uniform low energy diagnostic impulse to each vertebral segment of interest (640) and the resulting force waveform is recorded. The force wavefroms of each diagnostic impulse are compared to determine the relative compliance of each vertebral segment. The clinician then selects the vertebral segment to be adjusted (655) on the basis of identification of fixated or hypo-mobile segments and high compliance or hyper-mobile segments. The last step may or may not include comparison of the post adjustment compliance of the spinal system under analysis (515) with the compliance before adjustments were performed on the spine.

Un procédé et un appareil permettent de corriger de façon simple une mobilité vertébrale restreinte. Un clinicien applique une impulsion diagnostique uniforme de faible énergie à chaque segment vertébral étudié (640) et enregistre la forme d'onde de force résultante. Les formes d'onde de force de chaque impulsion diagnostique sont comparées pour déterminer la souplesse relative de chaque segment vertébral. Le clinicien choisit alors le segment vertébral à ajuster (655) en fonction de l'identification des segments bloqués ou hypomobiles et des segments très souples ou hypermobiles. La dernière étape peut éventuellement inclure une comparaison de la souplesse constatée après ajustements de la colonne vertébrale analysée (515) avec celle précédant ces ajustements.
