'''Koren Specific Technique''' (KST) is a technique developed by Tedd Koren.<ref name="jdc._"Chi">{{Cite web| title = Chiropractic- history, practice, potential| author = Tedd Koren| work = jdc.jefferson.edu| date = 2009-10-06| accessdate = 2015-06-30| url = http://jdc.jefferson.edu/jmbcim_lectures/24/}}</ref> While the technique is associated with chiropratic techniques, Koren has variously described it as an "analysis procotol," "healthcare protocol," and "healing protocol."<ref name="DynChiro">{{cite news|last1=Editorial Board|title=Koren Specific Technique Not Chiropractic?
