Summary

Spinal manipulation therapy (SMT) has long been a component of manual therapy and physical rehabilitation programs, especially as a modality for pain relief. However, the underlying physiological mechanisms for manipulation-related pain relief and functional improvement remain largely unexplored. To promote targeted treatments for musculoskeletal conditions and to better identify the indication and scope of SMT, its mechanisms must be better understood.
