The cervical spine consists of 7 cervical vertebrae. The function of the cervical vertebrae is to support the head and place the head in space. Each vertebra (spinal bone) has the ability to move slightly independently of each other during movement. If there are restrictions at a particular level, the result will be a loss of motion in the neck.
The technique demonstrated is a lateral, or side gliding mobilization of a cervical vertebra. This side gliding maneuver is an accessory, or secondary motion of the spinal column that is necessary for side bending of the neck.
Our patients receive one-on-one treatment and direct exercise supervision in our comfortable spacious studio.
