CHIROPRACTIC MANIPULATION TABLE WITH FLEXION/ DISTRACTION HEADPIECE Abstract of the Disclosure A new and improved treatment table for sup- porting a patent in a face down prone position for chi- ropractic manipulation of the cervical vertebrae patient's spine includes a base extending upwardly of the floor to a convenient working level and a thoracic cushion for supporting a patient's body below the neck in the prone position at the work level. A headpiece is pivotally interconnected relative to the thoracic cush- ion for supporting the patient's head during manipu- lation treatment. The headpiece is pivotal about a lat- erally extending horizontal axis spaced at a level above the thoracic cushion and just below or at a level coins cident with the patient's spine. The headpiece is also movable in lateral flexion about an upwardly extending axis and is rotatable about a roll axis generally coin- cident with the patient's spinal axis. Independent locks are provided for selectively locking or releasing the headpiece for movement about one or more of the respective axes at a particular time to effect a partic- ular type of treatment. A height adjustable handle is mounted on the headpiece to facilitate the chiropractor in the manipulative treatment of the patient in flex- ion/distraction, lateral flexion, spinal rotation or selected combinations thereof such as circumduction. An occipital harness is provided for securing a patient's head in place on the headpiece for use when spinal trac- tion is desired in connection with flexion/distraction treatment.
