Y chromosome

The Y chromosome is the sex-determining chromosome in most mammals, including humans. In mammals, it contains the gene SRY, which triggers testis development, thus determining sex. The human Y chromosome is composed of about 60 million base pairs. Most mammals have one pair of sex chromosomes in each cell (though the platypus has five pairs). Males have one Y chromosome and one X chromosome, while females have two X chromosomes. In mammals, the Y chromosome contains the gene that triggers embryonic development as a male. This gene is SRY. Normal sperm production needs other genes, in addition to SRY, on the Y chromosome.

Manipulative and Body Practices

Manipulative and body practices focus primarily on the structures and systems of the body, including the bones and joints, soft tissues and circulatory and lymphatic systems. Spinal manipulation by chiropractors and by other health care professionals such as physical therapists, osteopaths and some conventional medical doctors is medicine. Practitioners use their hands or a device to apply a controlled force to a joint of the spine, moving it beyond its passive range of motion; the amount of force the doctor applies depends on the form of manipulation. Spinal manipulation is among the treatment options that people with low-back pain have.
The term massage therapy encompasses many different techniques. In general, therapists press, rub and otherwise manipulate the muscles and other soft tissues of the body. People use massage for a variety of health purposes, including relieving pain, rehabilitating sports injuries, reducing stress, increase relaxation, address anxiety and depression and aid general wellbeing.
Physicians have used spinal manipulation since the time of the ancient Greeks. Doctors incorporated spinal manipulation into chiropractic and osteopathic medicine in the late 19th century. Massage therapy dates back thousands of years. References to massage appear in writings from ancient China, Japan, India, Arabic nations, Egypt, in Greece Hippocrates defined medicine as the art of rubbing and Rome.
According to the 2007 NHIS, chiropractic and osteopathic manipulation and massage ranked in the top 10 complementary medicine therapies among both adults and children. The survey found that 8.6 percent of adults and 2.8 percent of children had used chiropractic or osteopathic manipulation and 8.3 percent of adults and 1 percent of children had used massage.
