A Segmental Review of the Spine – Part 1 (Cranial Base to T4)

Overview

While the examination of proper function and disorders in many parts of the body are viewed from a systems approach, the different role that each segment of the spine plays in the body is often overlooked. In part 1, we will discuss the role each segment of the spine from levels C1 through T4 plays in movement and daily activities; autonomic nervous system imbalance; circulation; and gastrointestinal, respiratory, and cardiac function.
