Spinal and Extremity Joint Manipulation and Mobilization
Manipulation: A highly skilled technique that involves a quick stretch to a joint which results in a cavitation or popping sound. The quick stretch technique is very effective in restoring joint mechanics, reducing pain, relaxing adjacent musculature, and eliminating strength inhibition.
Mobilization: A technique that involves a slow sustained stretch to a joint in order to restore range of motion and joint mobility.
