The Chiropractic Vertebral Subluxation Part 4: New Perspectives and Theorists From 1916 to 1927
2018, Journal of Chiropractic HumanitiesCitation Excerpt :Stephenson viewed the CVS in the context of the organism’s intelligent attempt to adapt to the environment.4 This was an early systems approach to the body’s organizing processes based on complex cycles, a detailed exploration of momentum in health and disease, and an energetic perspective on the nervous system.47,48 Stephenson distinguished several kinds of impingements and cord pressures.4
The Chiropractic Vertebral Subluxation Part 10: Integrative and Critical Literature From 1996 and 1997
2018, Journal of Chiropractic HumanitiesCitation Excerpt :R. J. Watkins addressed this issue and emphasized the importance of the quality of the impulse in 1965; he related it to the neurology of the joint getting detuned, whereas the adjustment retunes the joint neurology.30,223 It was also proposed that research into subtle energy systems and energy medicine might be appropriate avenues to pursue research into the mental impulse concept.224,225 Because of the variation in practice, philosophy, and definitions within the profession, Boone and Dobson suggested an encompassing functional definition of CVS, as follows:
The Chiropractic Vertebral Subluxation Part 6: Renaissance of D.D. Palmer's Paradigm From 1949 to 1961
2018, Journal of Chiropractic HumanitiesCitation Excerpt :B. J. Palmer produced a voluminous output in his final 12 years (Fig 6).4,7,16,32-44 His last writings indicate changes in his philosophy and theories of CVS.45-47 His methodological assessment of patients at this point included an examination that included vital signs, laboratory tests, and several instrumentation measurements (Fig 7).48
Constructing a philosophy of chiropractic: Evolving worldviews and postmodern core
2011, Journal of Chiropractic HumanitiesConstructing a philosophy of chiropractic: Evolving worldviews and premodern roots
2011, Journal of Chiropractic HumanitiesCitation Excerpt :The “branches” of philosophy (metaphysics, epistemology, ontology, ethics, etc) will play an important role in constructing a philosophy of chiropractic in the future. In that regard, it will be important to draw from the literature in Integral Theory, not only from IMP,38 but also from Integral Post Metaphysics,12,22 Integral Epistemological Pluralism, and Integral Ontological Pluralism,39 as well as from Integral Situational Ethical Pluralism.40 These approaches will naturally situate the philosophy in the type of holistic picture described in the first article.20
Constructing a philosophy of chiropractic I: An Integral map of the territory
2010, Journal of Chiropractic HumanitiesCitation Excerpt :It can thus be used as a way to understand aspects of the philosophy of chiropractic that have traditionally been dismissed as mysticism, irrationality, and intuition. In the philosophy of chiropractic, phenomenology or systematic introspection has a tradition going back to DD Palmer and the books he was reading on the cultivation of the inner depths through meditation.15,24,26,53 An overarching philosophy of chiropractic would acknowledge this domain, not only in terms of patient reports and practitioner-patient interaction, but also in regard to the original insights of the Palmers in terms of their own experiential explorations of consciousness.15,27,44,46,78
