CBP Mirror Image Adjusting Techniques

Question 1

What is the foundational principle of Mirror Image adjusting in CBP?

Accepted Answer

The corrective force is applied in the exact opposite direction of the spinal displacement

Answer

Mirror Image adjusting applies corrective forces in the exact opposite direction of the identified postural or spinal displacement to restore normal alignment.

Question 2

In CBP, when a patient presents with a right lateral cervical translation, the Mirror Image adjustment force vector is directed toward the:

Accepted Answer

Left side, to oppose the right displacement

Answer

The Mirror Image principle dictates that a right lateral translation is corrected by applying force toward the left — the geometric opposite of the displacement.

Question 3

Which Harrison Spinal Model parameter is the primary target of mirror image cervical extension adjustments in CBP?

Accepted Answer

Restoration of the cervical lordosis arc

Answer

CBP cervical extension adjustments specifically target the restoration of the cervical lordosis arc toward the Harrison ideal of approximately 42° of arc.

Question 4

Mirror Image exercises in CBP are designed to:

Accepted Answer

Strengthen muscles and soft tissues that support the corrected spinal position

Answer

Mirror Image exercises reinforce the corrected alignment by activating and strengthening the muscles that support the spine in its corrected position.

Question 5

In CBP Mirror Image adjusting, the patient's spine is ideally positioned before the thrust so that it is:

Accepted Answer

Pre-loaded into the mirror image of the deformity to maximize corrective force application

Answer

CBP protocol requires pre-loading the patient into the mirror image corrective position before applying the thrust to maximize the efficiency of the corrective force.
