Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

Global manipulation

The therapist positioned himself at the head of the stretcher and with one hand supported the side of the participant's face. With the other hand supported the opposite face of the same and then performed contralateral rotation of the cervical and a slight traction to the tissue barrier to perform the manipulation impulse of high speed and short amplitude in rotation. The procedure was carried out bilaterally.

DEVICE

Especific manipulation

The therapist positioned himself at the head of the stretcher and with one hand kept the middle phalange of the second finger laterally on the articular processes of the C6-7 vertebrae. With the contralateral hand he supported the opposing face of the participant by performing a tilt up to the C6-7 segment and contralateral rotation up to the tissue barrier to carry out the impulse quickly and short. The procedure was carried out bilaterally.
