Disc technique: An adjusting procedure for any lumbar discogenic syndrome.

The intent of this article is to provide a format for chiropractors to learn a Sacro-Occipital Technique (SOT) adjusting procedure (known as Disc Technique) for treating patients with lumbar discogenic syndromes. Disc Technique along with the 'Step Out Toe Out' procedure (SOTO) are central to the SOT Category III protocol. Other SOT Category III procedures will be discussed so that Disc Technique can be understood in its context. Disc Technique requires only a stool or an armless chair, a willing patient and your thumb.
