Objectives

Narrative objectives1

This study focuses particularly on immunity, which is deeply involved in health promotion, and comprehensively evaluates QOL (SF-36) before and after chiropractic intervention, along with saliva-derived biomarkers (IgA, cortisol, Beta-defensin, CRP) and body temperature, to non-invasively and quantitatively analyze the health-promoting effects of chiropractic treatment. This aims to visualize the health-promoting effects of simple and practical chiropractic intervention.
