Narrative: This is the fifth of a 6-paper series which presents a descriptive narrative of the Western medical literature to identify and report evidence for each of the five principles of the Vertebral Subluxation Complex (VSC) premise as established in 1947 by Janse, Houser, and Wells (National College of Chiropractic). This literature includes Chiropractic papers in the medical indices and is additional to that from the chiropractic perspective which is available in the electronic Index to Chiropractic Literature.
This paper presents the evidence for Principle Four by documenting the evidence for the signs, symptoms, and a range of conditions associated with segmental, neural disturbance.
This 6-part series describes the incontrovertible acknowledgement and weight of recognition of the effect of physical, biomechanical, and physiological vertebral disturbances collectively contributing to the VSC and demonstrates strong support of the chiropractic nomenclature, neurophysiological and clinical implications of the Vertebral Subluxation Complex as recorded in the medical literature.
