Method： The anatomical structure and physio-pathological characteristics of the spine have been studied by using modern scientific knowledge, such as, anatomy, image, biomechanics and pathophysiology. Results： The spine and its surrounding muscles and ligaments, the whole spine, spine and nerves, vessels in between intervertebral foramen as well as the spinal cord within the spinal canal, and spine, pelvis and the lower limbs all constitute an organic whole. Conclusion： The TCM holistic view in bones and tendons, spine, spine- nerve-vessel-spinal cord and spine-pelvis-lower limbs are still guiding the clinical practice of spinal manipulations.展开更多
