CBP Mirror Image Adjusting Techniques 3

Question 1

Mirror Image exercises in a CBP rehabilitation program are most accurately described as:

Accepted Answer

Isometric and isotonic exercises performed in the postural opposite of the patient's spinal deformity

Answer

General core strengthening exercises without regard to direction of spinal displacement

Answer

Passive stretching exercises that match the direction of the patient's existing curve

Answer

Aerobic exercises that improve overall cardiovascular fitness

Question 2

According to the Harrison Exact Spinal Model, the ideal thoracic kyphosis Cobb angle (T1–T12) is approximately:

Accepted Answer

40 to 45 degrees

Answer

10 to 15 degrees

Answer

60 to 65 degrees

Answer

25 to 30 degrees

Question 3

When CBP mirror image traction is applied to correct a lumbar hypolordosis, the traction device is configured to place the lumbar spine in:

Accepted Answer

Extension and anterior weight-bearing to restore lumbar lordosis

Answer

Flexion and posterior loading to further reduce the lordosis

Answer

Lateral flexion to the right to address a concurrent scoliosis

Answer

Axial traction without sagittal plane modification

Question 4

In CBP clinical trials on Mirror Image traction, improvement in cervical lordosis has been associated with which additional clinical outcome?

Accepted Answer

Reduction in neck pain and disability scores

Answer

Increased upper extremity muscle strength

Answer

Improvement in systolic blood pressure

Answer

Reduction in lumbar disc herniation size

Question 5

Which of the following is NOT a component of a standard CBP Mirror Image corrective care plan?

Accepted Answer

Manual trigger point therapy performed in the same direction as the patient's postural deformity

Answer

Direction-specific spinal adjustments using mirror image vectors

Answer

Mirror image traction protocols targeting the measured deformity

Answer

Mirror image home exercises reinforcing the corrective position

Question 6

A patient's lateral cervical X-ray shows an anterior weight-bearing line (gravity line) anterior to the C7 vertebral body. In CBP Mirror Image protocol, this finding directs the practitioner to:

Accepted Answer

Apply posterior head retraction traction and extension exercises to shift the gravity line posteriorly

Answer

Apply anterior cervical traction to further translate the head forward

Answer

Perform rotational manipulation to the left to correct a concurrent rotation

Answer

Focus exclusively on lumbar correction before addressing the cervical spine

Question 7

The duration of a full CBP Mirror Image corrective care program to achieve clinically significant spinal remodeling is typically:

Accepted Answer

36 to 60 visits over 3 to 6 months

Answer

4 to 6 visits over 2 weeks

Answer

200+ visits over 2 years

Answer

1 to 3 visits with a single adjustment
