CBP® NonProfit Research Update
Tuesday, April 13, 2010 at 4:44AM CBP Research Presented at ACC-RAC 17
The research of CBP NonProfit, Inc. was represented at the seventeenth annual Association of Chiropractic Colleges Educational Conference-Research Agenda Conference held in Las Vegas, NV March 18-20. Dr. Paul Oakley represented himself and Dr. Deed Harrison’s case report featuring an MRI-documented complete resolution of an L4-5 disc herniation/sequestration after only 6-weeks of lumbar extension traction. The abstract is published in a special issue of The Journal of Chiropractic Education (Oakley P, Harrison DE. Lumbar extension traction and disc herniation/sequestration: A CBP case report. J Chiropr Educ: Spr 2010 (24:1): 136).
Berry Translation Traction to be Investigated by Dominican College, New York
In February of 2010, Dr. Bob Berry and Dr. Deed Harrison were contacted by the Department of 
Physical Therapy at Dominican College, New York. Two graduate students in the Doctorate of Physical Therapy program were inquiring as to the likelihood of acquiring a Berry Translation Traction Table and whether Dr. Berry and Dr. Harrison would be willing to assist in a research project. This research project is a requisite to be submitted-completed for partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctorate in Physical Therapy Degree at Dominican College.
The title of the project is: “Lateral Translational Traction to the Cervical Spine and its Reflection on Center of Gravity”; the main authors are Daniel Y. Lerner, SPT, Ailene M. Matusevich, SPT, and Project Advisors are: Michael Gallucci, EdD, Andrew McDonough, EdD, Deed Harrison, DC, Robert Berry, DC.
Drs. Berry and Harrison are excited about this project as it should further the understanding of translation traction intervention in chronic neck pain subjects. It is hoped that this project will aid in the determination of the effect of translation traction as a stand-alone intervention for correction of postural deformities in neck pain populations.
