- Abstract
There is little information on manual forces applied during cervical mobilization, a common treatment technique. Potential variability of applied forces between therapists and treatment occasions, and factors associated with different force applications are unknown. The purpose of this study is to establish the baseline mechanical properties of cervical spine mobilization and to determine if the applied forces are affected by the characteristics of therapists and mobilized subjects.
