ABSTRACT:
A table for supporting a patient lying in a generally horizontal position for chiropractic manipulation includes a base projecting upwardly from the floor to a convenient working level and a pivotally mounted thoracic support section for supporting the thorax of the patient which is adjustable about an axis generally corresponding to the patient's spinal axis. The table includes a caudal section supportively connected to the base with ball joints permitting movement of the patient's legs in lateral caudal flexion from side to side about a generally vertical yaw axis and flexion movement about a laterally extending horizontal pitch axis in a vertical direction between upwardly sloping and downwardly sloping positions. A support cushion is mounted for rotation on the caudal section between a range of selected rotational positions about a longitudinal roll axis to accomplish caudal rotation of the patient. A leaf spring and adjustment assembly compensate for a patient's weight. Lock means and height adjustment means are provided.
