Summary

Despite the abundance of theories concerning the effects of chiropractic adjustments on brain function, this remains an understudies area for the profession. Quantitative Electroencephalography (qEEG)is a technique that allows for an in-depth analysis of brain function. A normative database will be used to compare before, during and after effects of chiropractic adjustments on brain function. This will include usage of Low Resolution Electromagnetic Tomography (LORETA). This study seeks to objectively document effects of chiropractic adjustments on brain function.
