Chiropractic Education
Many people don't realize that chiropractors are trained with a very similar background as medical doctors. Kenneth Best, D.C. graduated Magna Cum Laude from Cleveland Chiropractic College in Los Angeles.
In a study of chiropractic education: medical students spend more time gaining clinical experience (1405 hours for chiropractic vs. 5227 hours for medicine, which includes a 3–year residency), chiropractic students spend more time in lectures and laboratories learning basic and clinical sciences (3790 hours for chiropractic vs. 2648 hours for medicine). Other comparisons showed that some subjects such as microbiology were equally represented in both curricula, while others, such as anatomy, physiology and pathology, were emphasized more in the chiropractic colleges.

The basic concept and philosophy of chiropractic is to restore normal motion and alignment of the spine and extremities, while improving the muscular strength and integrity of the ligaments which maintain the alignment.
The chiropractor may employ many different techniques to restore and maintain proper joint bio mechanics.
This is so vital as the communication from the brain to body is via the nervous system which is only as good as the proper movement of the joints. The chiropractor evaluates the functioning of your nervous system through motion palpation.

Applied Kinesiology is a system developed by chiropractor Dr. George Goodheart, D.C., to study the reaction of the body to muscle stimulus. The chiropractor can find either strong or weak muscles through manual muscle testing. Each muscle has a relationship to various organs and meridians of the body.
The chiropractor can utilize this process to help determine what correction need to be made in order to strengthen the body, whether it is physical, chemical or emotional in its origin.
This is not like most chiropractors or other types of practitioners who say they do "muscle testing." Dr. Best is an ICAK certified practitioner of AK. Dr. Best has study more than 1,000 hours of this specific technique and has taught hundreds of others chiropractors the practice of AK through the ICAK. Reliability in testing comes with experience. Learn more about AK.

Dr. Ken Best realizes that there are 3 influences in the Triad of Health. Any stress in these three areas: structural, chemical and emotional - can adversely affect a person's health.
Chiropractic adjusting, core building and physiotherapy treat the structure.
Nutritional imbalances and environmental exposure to toxins affect the chemical stress of the body, which in turn can affect the mind. Dr. Best provides personalized nutritional testing.
Meditation, visualization and reconnecting with nature and source are practices that can be used to nurture the mind and spirit.
All elements need to be balanced in the body for perfect health.
Dr. Best is proficient in many manual chiropractic adjusting techniques, including Diversified, Gonstead, Thompson, but may also use "LOW-FORCE" adjusting (aka non-force).
Primarily in low force chiropractic adjusting Dr. Best uses the Activator adjustment. Corrections are made possible because all the force from the instrument is applied to a very small specific area of the spine.
This provides not only very specific chiropractic adjusting, but does so because the body creates very little resistance to the Activator instrument as mechanoreceptors barely engage, allowing for improved movement in the area being adjusted. Activator Methods is a specific chiropractic technique.
Dr. Best also utilizes sacro-occipital technique and blocking for more low-force chiropractic adjusting protocols.
