Promoting better health through understanding the anatomy and physiology of the human spine.
Postura distributes educational 35mm slides of human spinal anatomy. These
slides help demonstrate the effect of partial dislocations (subluxations)
of the spinal column on bones, disks, and the nervous system (and thereby
on other organs). The comparisons between specimens and xrays/MRIs promote
a more accurate interpretation of medical images, and thus lead to better
treatment and recovery for persons suffering traumatic or chronic spinal
injury.
The slides are primarily of anatomical specimens (dissections), xrays, and MRI images. Some slides have illustrations, some have captions. These slides are of interest to medical professionals (Chiropractors, Orthopedists, Radiologists, Neurosurgeons, Physical Therapists, etc.), schools and libraries for training them, health advocates and public health libraries, and insurance and legal personnel.
