Apophyseal
editThe above word re-directs here, though there is no mention of whether it is an alternative word with the same meaning, or an antonym or anything else. I'm off to Google now, as I certainly can't help here yet :) Gondooley (talk) 12:49, 21 October 2010 (UTC)
Chiropractic
editChiropractic is a controversial treatment. Valid citations showing that it is thought by a majority of medical doctors to be a conservative treatment option need to be provided before it is mentioned as such in the article. Pending this I have removed the mention of chiropractic from the article. Gb drbob (talk) 17:09, 28 April 2014 (UTC)

Zygapophysial joint → Facet joint – Far more widely referred to and would match Facet joint syndrome and Facet joint injection pages – Iztwoz (talk) 18:52, 4 October 2015 (UTC)
- This is a contested technical request (permalink). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 21:54, 4 October 2015 (UTC)
- @Iztwoz:: "Zygapophysial" seems to be the correct full name. The forms "Z-joints" and "facet joints" look like abbreviatory operating-room jargon whose use has spread. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 21:57, 4 October 2015 (UTC)
- This is also the TA name but usage shows far more refs to facet joint on both N-grams and Google search. ? Being such an easier name to use can only see its usage increasing further. --Iztwoz (talk) 22:13, 4 October 2015 (UTC)
- Support per your rationale. A much easier name for lay readers to understand. We can include the other names in the title. --Tom (LT) (talk) 22:54, 4 October 2015 (UTC)
