When thesubluxation is rotary, the contact is similar, but the greaterforce is directed toward the transverse process which is pos-teriorly displaced. In an upward approximation of a vertebra,the contact is with the superior surface of the transverseprocesses; when it is inferiorly approximated the contact iswith the inferior surface of the transverse processes. Method of delivery.—The proper contact, as above indi-cated, having been secured, a spontaneous movement fromthe forearms, and an upward turn of the wrist should bemade. The direction of the force is determined by the natureof the subluxation. In a posterior or kyphotic subluxation,it is directed downward. When a rotary subluxation is pres-ent the force is directed principally along one arm, namelythat in contact with the posteriorly displaced transv
