Closed Chain Kinesiology: More Accurate Than Biomechanics?

Biomechanics research and practice has led to great advances including new terminology, hypotheses and protocols for treating chief complaints that deserve much praise. But in recent years, little high level evidence with clinical significance has surfaced in spite of the effort of many. Perhaps we have focused too much on the “force” pillar and not enough on the “skeletal structure” pillar when experimenting and hypothesizing?
