Abstract: A chiropractic evaluation, diagnostic and adjusting system includes a surface having including an elongated slot therein, a number of actuators, each including a rod and a position sensor, and a drive for translating the adjustment actuators along the length the slot. A control system determines a curvature of a spine of a patient by controlled extension and retraction of each rod into and out-of contact with the spine of the patient via the slot during translation of the adjustment actuators along the length of the slot. The control system compares the determined curvature of the spine of the patient to a predetermined spine curvature and controls the drive and each of one or more of the actuators to apply a series of corrective stroke pulses to an area of the patient's spine requiring adjustment via the rod of the actuator.
