Description

Thrust manipulation such as Grade V, high-impulse thrust (HIT) techniques are sometimes seen to be at odds with clinicians’ understanding of non-thrust mobilizations. Some ask, “Why perform manual mobilizations in one direction and then thrust the joint in another?”. Furthermore, manipulative therapy courses tend to focus exclusively on applying techniques without addressing the motor control techniques that should accompany the manual treatment to enhance outcomes. In this one-day in-person lecture and lab experience, learners will gain exposure to, and confidence with, a wide variety of high impulse spinal manipulations that are philosophically congruent with non-thrust mobilizations. A myriad of post-manipulation motor control and self-management techniques designed to engage the patient in owning their outcomes and optimizing their results will be emphasized.
