Episodic Tension-type Headache: Therapy Requires registration Episodic Tension-type Headache: Therapy
Information relating to the treatment of episodic tension-type headache (ETTH) is limited. Most studies address chronic tension type-headache (CTTH) or do not differentiate between headache types. For the purpose of this review and assigned ratings, studies on CTTH and non differentiated tension type headache (TTH) will be included when the author feels the information may be appropriate for ETTH. Whenever CTTH or TTH references are used they will be duly noted.

Revisiting the S-Word: A Fresh Look at the Subluxation Anthony L. Rosner, Ph.D., LL.D.[Hon.] More information   
Now that the second decade of the second millennium is upon us, together with the prospect of Spring Cleaning, it seems entirely appropriate to consider that perhaps the time has arrived to update both our conceptualization and exposition of the subluxation. In terms of how frequently one performs these updates compared to Microsoft, for instance, this shouldn’t be too much of a stretch. Think of it as Subluxation 2.0, 2.2, 2.7, 4.2…or whatever. But the larger picture is that better accessibility of the s-word by various healthcare professions in addition to chiropractic is clearly a necessity.

The average survey score of family practitioners was 69.7 and the average score of orthopedists was far less at 44.3. Orthopedists were less likely to make the proper radiological referral and appropriate pharmacological prescription based upon the literature.
