Method for spinal adjustment

Abstract

The present invention discloses a method for spinal adjustment. More specifically, the present invention discloses a method for spinal adjustment for assisting a user thereof to adjust the user's spine, and with such adjustment being realized via commonly available secondary use means.

1 . A spinal adjustment method for assisting a user thereof to adjust the user's cervical spine, said method comprising the steps of: 
 a user, whose primary body weight is basically fully supported in either a supine or related lateral position on a horizontal plane substantially rigid surface, providing an arched form defining a substantially convex substantially rigid surface featuring a radius of about 3 inches, and a length upon which the user transversely positions and supports either a dorsal neck region or a lateral neck region such that the head of the user is at the opposite side of the arched form and unsupported, at which time the user dictates a suitable movement of rotation to the head, whereby, under the influence of gravity acting on the unsupported head region of the user, the arched form provides extensively reducing resistance and path to the unsupported side such that adjacent vertebrae of the user's spine are directed radially and extensively along the neck region so divergently supported, thus effecting cervical adjustment.    
   
   
       2 . A spinal adjustment method for assisting a user thereof to adjust the user's thoracic and/or cervical/thoracic spine, said method comprising the steps of: 
 a user providing commonly available secondary use means to pressure said thoracic and/or cervical/thoracic spine; wherein    said commonly available secondary use means are selected from the group consisting of rubber pet toys, cylinders, boards and closed cell foam; and    said commonly available secondary use means are user-arranged such that adjustment of the thoracic spine is linear and along a transverse process; wherein    the user positions the means between the user's back and a horizontal plane substantially rigid surface; and    the user pressures the thoracic spine along the user-arranged commonly available means from just above a lumbar/thoracic transition region toward said cervical/thoracic region; whereby    the user's spine is urged into a position of alignment.    
   
   
       3 . A spinal adjustment method as set forth in  claim 2  wherein said pressure is applied to the transverse process of said thoracic spine asymmetrically.  
   
   
       4 . A spinal adjustment method as set forth in  claim 2  wherein said commonly available secondary use means are user-arranged such that the cervical/thoracic spine is compressed via partial weight of the user.  
   
   
       5 . A spinal adjustment method as set forth in  claim 2  wherein said commonly available secondary use means are user-arranged such that the cervical/thoracic spine is manually decompressed.  
   
   
       6 . A spinal adjustment method for assisting a user thereof to adjust the user's lumbar spine, said method comprising the steps of: 
 a user providing a commonly available secondary use means to adjust said lumbar spine; wherein    said commonly available secondary use means is a common U.S. Postal rural-type mailbox; whereby    the user transversely suspends by the abdomen and relaxes over the convex surface of said mailbox, for an interval of about 5 seconds, thereby effecting lumbar adjustment.
