Any Chiropractor here know the orthopedic test: George's Test with Kline's Maneuver and correct spelling of it
606650
This is a test for vertebrobasilar insufficiency - a condition in which there is not enough blood coming through the vertebral arteries, and it could be dangerous to forcibly manipulate the neck.\n\n"In George's test, we first measure the bilateral blood pressure, pulse rates, and auscultate the subclavian and carotid arteries. The patient is next asked to rotate the head right and left, and then rotate, laterally bend and extend in the seated position (Maigne's test) and in the supine position (DeKleijn's test). Signs of nausea, tinnitus, vertigo, light headaches, slurring of speech, dizziness or nystagmus may indicate vascular compromise or stenosis of the carotid or vertebral arteries."

Okay... I know this is going to sound strange, however I thought I may as well put this idea to you...\n\nI have worked for some chiropractors and am studying it now myself. The philosophy of Chiropractic is as follows: \n\nThe brain is the central part of the nervous system. It extends down into the spinal cord and then into the nerves which go to specific parts of your body, i.e. organs, muscles, etc. (Basically everywhere in the body...) So the spinal cord is like an 'information highway' of the body, just like a car highway. \n\nThe spinal cord is protected by the spine which is made up of 24 seperate bones (vertebrae). The vertebra can misalign through day to day activities through Chemical (e.g. smoking, caffene, alcohol, even pollution), Emotional (the muscles tense up and pull the spine out of position, i.e. tension headaches, etc) and physical stresses (eg, whiplash, trips, falls and even childbirth.) \n\nIf the spinal joints become misaligned (otherwise known as 'subluxated') nerve impulses become distorted. Going back to the analogy of the motorway... if you block two lanes of a four lane highway, the cars will become jammed and will not pass easily to their destination. Symptoms can include headaches, migranes, lower immune response, numbness/pins and needles in hands or feet, sciatica, muscle twitching, back pain... etc, etc, etc.\n\nSo... What I'm saying is that maybe you could have your spine checked for any misalignments. Most chiropractors do free 'spinal checks' or you could even book for a full consultation. They have the same goals as doctors, etc, but just work in a very different way. They use non-invasive and drug-free methods. It's all done through manipulation.\n\nI know all of this seems very far-fetched... however, I think there may be some kind of connection. Just be open-minded! Good luck!

is "shifted" the phrase your chiro is using? Adjusters are pretty jaded since chiros say that about everyone. Was there any "disc impingements" "slipped disc", etc? Anything broken? Any visible marks? Did you have to wear a cervical collar? how bad is the damage to both vehicles? have you missed any work? Can you walk/ sit/ sleep/ eat/ etc normally? did you go to the ER? And lastly, are you attorney repped? These are some of the major factors of your settlement.

I would seriously suggest the Sherman College of Straight Chiropractic in South Carolina.\n\nIt was one of the first chiropractic schools opened and unlike a lot of the schools now, it still focuses on the philosophy behind chiropractic... which in my opinion is essential to understanding and becoming a good chiropractor.

I'm sorry that you've been suffering for so long, and since neither surgery nor medication has helped, I would suggest seeing a chiropractor. Chiropractic is founded in the belief that the Central Nervous System (brain, spinal cord, and nerves) is responsible for controlling EVERY function in our bodies, and when the vertebrae are misaligned (what chiropractic calls a subluxation), they can pinch/damage the nerves running out between them and cause pain, numbness/tingling, or any type of general malfunction to that nerve's corresponding body part.\n\nA good chiropractic technique for scoliosis is Chiropractic Biophysics - CBP, which combines adjustments, traction, and exercise to correct spinal misalignment. The adjustments remove subluxations and allow the nerves to conduct impulses properly. The traction works to correct the curve, or at least prevent it from getting worse, and the exercises strengthen the ligaments so they can support the new posture. Since CBP is a technique that aims to make relatively drastic changes to spinal column but in a gradual, safe way, your CBP chiropractor will probably want to see you 3 times a week for 8-10 weeks (with maintenance care to follow). \n\nBut no doctor can guarantee a cure. So it would be in your best interest to ask around, talk to family or friends for recommendations, visit a few offices and choose the doctor you are most comfortable with (I still recommend a CBP chiropractor, but you don't have to stick with that technique). No matter what you decide to do, I hope everything works out for the best!

Try to find a very good Doctor of Osteopathy (D.O.) who does OMM--osteopathic manipulative medicine and who also does cranial osteopathy. A good one is worth their weight in gold! These doctors get a very rigourous training. Some are board certified in surgery, but  that should be an absolute LAST RESORT for any case. Osteopathic physicians can write out prescriptions for medications, and tests--X-rays, MRIs, etc. Many of them specialize in areas such as cardiology, gastro-intestinal disorders, etc. You want the person who still practices the science and art of manual manipulation--which, unfortunately is much rarer these days.\n\nALSO--there is a wonderful, but little known therapy that was developed by a British osteopath--Dr. Robert Boyd, called Bio-Cranial Therapy. The technique takes literally about 1-2 minutes. Only about 200 practitioners are available in the U.S. and many of them are chiropractors. The technique really is very helpful--to the entire body, not just the head/neck area.\n\nIf you go to a chiropractor, try to locate one that practices "Network Chiropractic." This is a technique that utilizes very gentle action in that it allows your body to make its own adjustment.\n\nOther modaltiies that may be of benefit: Medical massage therapy, deep tissue massage, craniosacral therapy, Feldenkrais Method, Alexander Technique, accupuncture, myofascial release.\n\nYou can apply a homeopathic cream/gel to the affected area of pain--it's called Traumeel (it comes in cream and a gel--the gel absorbs faster and is less greasy). It's a natural anti-inflammatory and acts to heal the tissue. Just follow the directions. A good health food store or nutritional pharmacy will carry it or you could probably find it online.\n  \nAlso-- if there is little or no more inflammation and you are suffering from stiffness--you may want to try a warm castor oil pack. A good health food store or nutritional pharmacy will have the castor oil (avoid a commercial grade, cheap oil, as it may contain toxins) and a flannel pack. Soak the flannel pack in the oil , place in a plastic bag and apply heat over the area for 20-25 minutes. The castor oil will have a very healing effect on the tissues. Do this daily--just before you go to sleep is a good time.\n\nAbout doctors and health care practitioners. It is very important that you feel comfortable and have confidence in the person you are seeing. Your practitioner should give you their full attention and not rush through the appointment. You have a right to be treated with respect, dignity and compassion. It's a good idea to write down a brief history of your situation and any questions you may have before your initial consultation. Get 2 copies (one for your first visit, and one for yourself to keep at home) of any tests, reports, etc that have been perfomed by an institution or another doctor. You have a right to have a copy of your medical records. It's possible that you may have to pay for copies from a hospital.\n\nListed below are some sources that may be of help.\n\nI know what it is like to be in pain. You WILL HEAL.\n\nBest of luck for a speedy and complete recovery.\n\nA Massage Therapist

In order to be accepted into any chiropractic college, students must take the same pre-requisites as any future medical student.  This includes 1 year of math, english, physics, and 2 years of chemistry (all with accompanying lab classes).  Chiropractic students receive a very similar education as medical students, with emphasis on diagnosis of many different medical conditions, lab work (blood or urine analysis), and basic sciences (physiology, pathology, basic anatomy, and neuroanatomy).  In addition, chiropractic students receive over 100 hours in palpation and technique courses, much more thoroughly than any Physical therapist or even MD attempting to 'manipulate' the spine.  Over 100 hours are also dedicated to learning radiology - how to take x-ray and interpret them - again, much more thoroughly than any medical student (those that are not specializing in radiology, of course).  So, yes, chiropractors are real doctors, and can recognize many different medical conditions and refer out appropriately.  Several studies have also shown that chiropractors are superior in dealing with musculoskeletal conditions (ie - neck pain and back pain), as well as other complaints than many MDs may ignore or cannot do anything about.

see a neurologist..............\nnot some  duck chiropractor who may do far more harm than any good.\n\nNeurologist can determine from mri's and testing exactly what damage has been done..\nyou can end up...with severe spinal damage resulting in nerve damage that no doctor can help if you don't get the right treament and chiro don't know diddle about nerve damage and spinal cord and cervical fusion,

If an MD clears you for immediate danger, go see a chiropractor. You may have subluxated spinal joints that block nerve pathways that will wreak havoc with your body.

I agree with Kanajlo's answer as being correct, and will check it also as  best answer. "Oblique Popliteal Ligament\nOr you could say popliteus or popliteum"

The most common scenario is the pediatrician detecting a "hip click" during routine post-natal checkup. Actually, a "clunk", rather than a "click" is detected in the unstable hip, but it requires experience to tell a "clunk" from a "click". The pediatrician typically does the Ortolani test by spreading the thighs, or the Barlow test by bringing the knees together, to elicit this finding.\n\nIn the older infant, the pediatrician may suspect the problem if the child has tight hip adductors - he has a hard time spreading the baby’s hips. He may also notice that the skin creases around the groin or the buttocks are not symmetrical. Or the legs may appear to be of different lengths.\n\nAt age one, the affected child may present with a limp. Unfortunately, pain is not a problem in the child, hence it is easy to miss the diagnosis. However, by the time the patient becomes an adult, arthritic changes will occur, and pain will set in.

Orthopedic surgeon or "orthopod."\nI've found it to be best to use both the western and the alternative approaches for chronic muskuloskeletal pain.

I had TMJ for several years (so bad sometimes that I couldn't open my jaw wide enough to eat a hamburger) and did jaw exercises and massages with just minor improvement.  About five years after that, I started seeing a chiropractor for a sore neck and back.  The chiropractic adjustments actually relieved the TMJ; I rarely notice any issues anymore.

be CAREFUL!!!  If you do it wrong you could screw yourself up for life.  That is why chiropractors go to school as long as they do and why they carry so much insurance, and get you to sign waivers.
