My Mentor, Dr. Keith L.

What is
Independent Study
Mentorship?
ISM is an advance
academic course designed for
students wishing to mentor an adult
professional
in a the
chosen
career.
Through out
the semester,
student
will meet with
their mentor for 3 hours a week by leaving the
campus on Tuesday's, Thursday's, and occasionally
Friday's,completing activity logs, journal entries and
a portfolio on their Weeb.ly website, show casing
assignments completed.
Every student must develop a final product and
presentation for the end of the semester that will be
counted as a final exam grade.

Basics of
Chiropractic
Medicine
Chiropractors
use spinal

adjustments, deep tissue massages

and a form of physical therapy to
relieve neck and back pain.
The founder of Chiropractic
methods is D.D Palmer.
He had a theory that proper
alignment of the body's spinal cord
will enable it to heal itself.

Whip Lash
I chose the topic of the effects of whip
lash on the body and the treatment
because Chiropractors deal with a lot of
car accident victims, sport
injuries,amusement park ride injuries.
Whiplash. is caused by sudden
backward or forward movement of the
head, often caused by a car accident.
Common symptoms of whip lash are
neck pain and neck stiffness, head
aches,and dizziness.

How is it
Diagnose
d?

If you have any of the

common symptoms, such
as severe neck pain,
numbness stiffness,
weakness or headaches,
they will do an x-ray to
verify the pain isn't
connected to any other
type of injury. This allows
them to see the damage
to the soft tissues.

Treatment
Home treatments include overthe-counter drugs and ice.
Chiropractors use
spinal
manipulation,
heat stimulators,
relaxation
techniques, and
rehabilitative and

Resear
For this assignment I'm
ch
required to included 4
research sources to in
cooperate into my
presentation.
I will use valuable information
from these sources in my key
points of this project.

Tangible Item
The product I'll be making for this
project is a video demonstration
of a normal treatment for Whip
Lash.
My mentor will demonstrate the
techniques and I'll have my voice
recording,describing what he is
doing. I'll in cooperate pictures
and words in the video and it will
be presented after the slide
describing the treatment.

Through out this presentation, I

informed you about the basics of
Chiropractic Medicine and Whip
Lash.
In most cases, after a few weeks of
spinal adjustments, deep tissue
massages and other therapeutic
remedies, the symptoms of whip
lash should be gone.
