This podcast explores a newly published Annals of Vertebral Subluxation Research study by Deborah Sanderson, DC, and Daniel J. Becker, DC, MEd researchers at Sherman College of Chiropractic, examining the relationship between cervical proprioception and Thompson Cervical Syndrome. The discussion explains how the neck helps the brain understand body position, balance, posture, and movement. It breaks down the Thompson leg check, the CCKST laser-guided repositioning test, and the study’s key finding that 80% of participants with a left-sided cervical syndrome showed greater repositioning error after left head rotation. The episode emphasizes the importance of Sherman College’s work in advancing subluxation-centered chiropractic research.
