This 2-hour session consists of a brief synopsis of the manual therapy portion of a cervicothoracic evaluation. Included are cervical spine biomechanics, some common and useful manipulations, and manual techniques to help decrease neck pain, radiculopathy and cervicogenic headaches. Also, highlighted are some common diagnoses, along with useful tips for optimizing treatment to obtain the best outcomes while aiming to prevent chronic relapses and/or exacerbations in this region of the spine. Research will be available and briefly presented to support evidence-based practice and the use of manual therapy to treat the cervical spine.
