The vertebral subluxation complex (VSC) model includes
general categories that can be related to the philosophy of chiropractic.
The primary component of the VSC that can be included in the classical
philosophy of chiropractic is the neuropathological component and its
relationship to the overall function of the body. The mechanisms of the
interference of the nerve system due to vertebral subluxation are
explained and investigated in the VSC model. The model further categorizes
many other effects of the vertebral subluxation. The implication of the
model is that the effects of subluxation can be known and related to a
significant degree to the life sciences. The model attempts to provide a
pathophysiological derivation of most of the known pathological changes
present with a subluxation. The unknown, subclinical, unmeasurable changes
from subluxation are not significantly addressed in the model. It is
presumed that there needs to be significant scientific evidence supporting
a particular effect (or category of the model) for the effect to rise to
the level of importance as to be included in the VSC model. (1,2,3) |
