ABSTRACT:
The invention comprises a chiropractic table having a main table with a pair of slots in the upper surface of the table and a chiropractic back engaging spinal treatment mechanism is mounted in one slot and a lower posterior engaging sacral iliac treatment mechanism is mounted in the other slot. The back spinal treatment mechanism comprises a pair of back engaging ridge members in the slot with the upper edges of the ridges projecting above the upper surface of the table for the back of a patient to rest upon on opposite sides of its spine. The ridge members are movable downward and bilaterally away from one another in reaction to frontal pressure upon the patient with stop members at the outer end of their movement with springs urging the ridge members back toward one another whereby a treatment operator may press down on the chest/arms of the patient and the impact reaction upon the ridge members will produce the ridge members to separate apart while engaging the patient's back on each opposite sides of the spinal column to cause realignment of spinal sublucated components of the patient. The lower posterior sacrum engaging mechanism for the sacrum of the patient to rest upon comprises a pair of posterior engaging ridge mechanisms for engaging the sacrum posterior of the patient and reactive to downward pressure upon the patient to spread bilaterally apart to engage medial posterior superior iliac spine of the patient's sacral iliac joint tor realigning the same.
