Cervico-Thoracic Spine Joint Manipulation[edit|edit source]

Introduction[edit|edit source]

  • The Guide to Physical Therapist Practice defines mobilization/manipulation as “skilled passive movements to joints and/or related soft tissue that are applied at varying speeds and amplitudes, including small-amplitude/high-velocity therapeutic movements”[1].
  • Manipulation of the spine (MTS)can also be defined as a form of manual therapy that is used in an effort to reduce pain and improve range of motion[2].
  • Cervico-thoracic spine joint manipulation or mobilization are a physiotherapy or chiropractic intervention that can be used forneck,backorshoulderpain.[3]

Indications[edit|edit source]

  • Head and neck disordersincluding:
  1. neck pain and stiffness.
  2. muscle-tension headache.
  3. migraine.

Some evidence has shown that grade IV cervical spine mobilisations (unilateral and central PA) can have an increase in deep neck flexor strength[3].

Thoracic mobilisations alongside deep flexor strengthening exercises have also been shown to help reduce chronic neck pain.[4]

  • Thoracic pain
  • Shoulder pain


Some studies have shown that cervical and thoracic joint mobilisations can help to reduce pain and improve ROM in some patients presenting with sub-acromial pain syndrome[5].
