This paper discusses linear algebra as applied to human posture in chiropractic, specifically chiropractic biophysics technique (CBP).
Rotations, reflections and translations are geometric functions studied in vector spaces in linear algebra. These mathematical functions are termed rigid body transformations and are applied to segmental spinal movement in the literature. Review of the literature indicates that these linear algebra concepts have been used to describe vertebral motion. However, these rigid body movers are presented here as applying to the global postural movements of the head, thoracic cage and pelvis.
The unique inverse functions of rotations, reflections and translations provide a theoretical basis for making postural corrections in neutral static resting posture. Chiropractic biophysics technique (CBP) uses these concepts in examination procedures, manual spinal manipulation, instrument assisted spinal manipulation, postural exercises, extension traction and clinical outcome measures.
本文探讨线性代数在整脊疗法中应用于人体姿势的情况，特别是整脊生物物理学技术（CBP）。
旋转、反射和平移是线性代数中向量空间所研究的几何函数。这些数学函数被称为刚体变换，在文献中应用于脊柱节段运动。文献综述表明，这些线性代数概念已被用于描述椎体运动。然而，这里将这些刚体运动应用于头部、胸廓和骨盆的整体姿势运动。
旋转、反射和平移的独特逆函数为在中立静态休息姿势下进行姿势矫正提供了理论基础。整脊生物物理学技术（CBP）在检查程序、手动脊柱推拿、器械辅助脊柱推拿、姿势锻炼、伸展牵引和临床结果测量中使用这些概念。
