Chiropractor, lecturer, expert federal chiropractic examiner, and supervising clinician, Michael Vianin (MSc, DC), is committed to ensuring clinicians and other healthcare professionals involved in the management of musculoskeletal disorders and pain syndromes have access to practical tools allowing them to apply a dispositionalism model of musculoskeletal care.

In this book, Michael discusses the components of the model, their significance, and how to address them with patients. Topics covered include:
