BS2.04 Adjustments affect the Prefrontal Cortex

We cover the science of how chiropractic adjustments have been shown to impact the processing of the prefrontal cortex in the brain. You will learn about how this research was conducted and what it means. Discover the important role of the prefrontal cortex in executive functions, pain processing, and movement control. The fact that science is showing that chiropractic adjustments impact processing in the prefrontal cortex has major implications for how we may be impacting our patient’s health.

Science is showing that chiropractic adjustments impact processing in the prefrontal cortex!
