relieve pain in acute/sub-acute stage

44
Q

why do we use grade 3 and 4 oscillations

A

maintain and increase joint mobility

45
Q

which sustained technique is considered “loosening”

grade 1 sustained

47
Q

which sustained technique is considered “tightening or taking up the slack”

A

grade 2 sustained

49
Q

which sustained technique is considered “stretching”

A
