Q
A

PT 4-6: Patient is prone, with arms draped over top of table (this aids in extension of the T-spine). Doc stands at head of table and cups pt’s chin with one hand, using the other hand to monitor the tender point. Slowly and passively extend the patient’s neck, fine-tuning with rotation and sidebending “away” from the tender point (may be to either side).

17
Q
A

PT7-9

Patient is prone, with arms draped over top of table with a pillow under his/her chest to further extend the thoracic spine. Doc stands at head of table and cups pt’s chin with one hand, using the other hand to monitor the tender point. Slowly and passively extend the patient’s neck, fine-tuning with rotation and sidebending “away” from the tender point (may be to either side).

18
Q
A

PT10-12

Patient is prone, with arms draped over top of table with a pillow under his/her chest to further extend the thoracic spine. Doc stands at side of table, and grasps the patient’s ASIS on the side opposite the dysfunction, raising the patient’s hip and inducing extension of the lower T-spine.

19
Q

arms draped over side of table

passively extend the patient’s neck, fine- tuning with rotation and sidebending “away” from the tender point.

tp on spinous process

A

PT 1-3

A

PT 7-9

22
Q

arms draped over top of table with a pillow under his/her chest to further extend the thoracic spine. Doc stands at side of table, and grasps the patient’s ASIS on the side opposite the dysfunction, raising the patient’s hip and inducing extension of the lower T-spine.

A

PT10-12

23
Q
  1. arms to the side of the table
  2. arms over the top of the table
  3. arms over the top of the table with a pillow under their chest
  4. grasps the patient’s ASIS on the side opposite the dysfunction, raising the patient’s hip and inducing extension of the lower T-spine.
A
  1. PT1-3 arms to the side of the table
  2. PT4-6 arms over the top of the table
  3. PT7-12: arms over the top of the table with a pillow under the chest
  4. PT10-12
