Improvement in Quality of Life in a Patient with Depression Undergoing
Chiropractic Care Using Torque Release Technique: A Case Study (JVSR, 2010)
Objective: To report on a female patient who presented for chiropractic care with
depression.
Clinical Features: 49 year old female who presented with a history of depression,
asthma, high stress, mood and gastrointestinal changes.
Intervention and Outcome: Over a period of 7 months, a specific, conservative
chiropractic adjustment regimen for the correction of vertebral subluxation was
administered to the patient. The care plan was altered in accordance to outcome
measures and over this time period the patient exhibited a considerable
decrease in presenting symptomology alongside a substantial increase in self
rated quality of life. Self-rated health/wellness (SRHW) surveys were taken prior
to care and at subsequent progress visits assessing four domains of health
(Physical state, Emotional/Mental state, Stress and Life Enjoyment) as well as
Overall Quality of Life. Static and Thermal EMG were performed using the
Chiropractic Leadership Alliance (CLA) Insight™ surface EMG and thermal
scanning technology. Improvements were noted in SRHW and surface EMG and
thermal scanning over the 7 months of care.
Conclusion: While under chiropractic care subjective and objective
improvements in physical, mental and social well-being were documented in a
patient with a history of depression, asthma, high stress, mood and
gastrointestinal changes
