Alignment: This generally refers to objects being in a straight line, or being positioned appropriately in relation to each other.
The bones of the spine (vertebrae) should be arranged in a particular position, one on top of the other – they have a particular alignment. After a spinal injury the vertebrae may become shifted from their normal position, and they will be said to be misaligned. Various forms of surgical or non-surgical treatment may be required to realign the vertebrae.
