Which assessment is NOT commonly performed by chiropractors?

Blood pressure measurements are typically not a common assessment performed by chiropractors as part of their initial evaluations. Chiropractors primarily focus on musculoskeletal issues, spinal health, and the interrelationships between these conditions and overall health. Their assessments are centered around orthopedic tests, neurological assessments, and physical examinations that help diagnose issues related to the spine and nervous system function.

Orthopedic tests are used to evaluate the joint and soft tissue function, while neurological assessments help identify any nerve involvement or dysfunction. Physical examinations provide a comprehensive view of the patient's overall health and specific conditions. Since blood pressure is generally more associated with cardiovascular health and typically falls under the domain of primary care physicians or specialists, it is not a standard assessment for chiropractors in their practice.
