Abstract/Notes

Background: A 44-year-old male presented for care with a primary concern of chronic Major Depression symptoms.

Intervention: He underwent a series of concentrated Chiropractic care weeks, during which he was managed using the Averio Functional Neurological Technique. 

Outcomes: Over the course of care, repeated objective tests revealed significant improvements, including reversal of cervical spinal ligament instability, reducation in severe abnormal cervical spine alignment, as well as self-reported significant reductions in pain along with improvements in sleep, mental health and emotional function. 

Conclusion: These outcomes highlight the need for further clinical trials investigating the effects of concentrated chiropractic care on mental health conditions such as major depression. Expanding research in this area would help to clarify the relationship between chiropractic and mental health outcomes, and potentially offer new avenues for care.

Indexing Terms: Chiropractic; subluxation; concentrated care; depression; cervical alignment.
