About the Book

An essential reference for both learning and refining manual therapy techniques for the spine. A must-have guide for manual therapists, Spinal Manipulations and Mobilization Techniques is a comprehensive resource packed with step-by-step instructions, expert insights, and access to more than 45 video demonstrations to ensure precision and confidence in execution. Learn to safely apply grade 1 to 4 mobilizations and select grade 5 manipulations with the help of experienced osteopath John Gibbons. These techniques can be used by a variety of practitioners, including osteopaths, chiropractors, and physical therapists. In part I you will learn the anatomy, biomechanics, and related pathologies of the vertebral column; the differences between spinal mobilization and manipulation; and the gait cycle and its relationship to the vertebral column. In part II you will learn techniques for the cervical spine, atlanto-occipital joint, cervicothoracic junction, thoracic spine, ribcage, lumbar spine, and pelvic girdle. Manual therapy techniques for the spine, thorax, and pelvis are commonly performed for the treatment of pain and dysfunctional movement patterns. Using this book’s detailed illustrations and photographs, along with online video demonstrations, you can confidently study and safely implement these techniques with your patients. Spinal Manipulations and Mobilization Techniques is the resource you need to learn manual therapy techniques.
