In chiropractic vertebral subluxation is a set of signs and symptoms of the spinal column. Those chiropractors who assert this concept (specifically straight chiropractors) also add a visceral component to the definition. Chiropractors maintain that a vertebral subluxation complex is a dysfunctional biomechanical spinal segment which is fixated.
