John Gibbons is a registered Osteopath, Lecturer and Multi-published Author and in this video he is discussing how to improve the mobility of the thoracic spine through specific mobilisations. The mobility exercises will also improve the function of the sympathetic nervous system because they attach from the levels of T1-L2.

Thats great to know, regards JG
JUST WATCHING THIS MY BACK IS FEELING RELAX BIT. I CAN FEEL THIS VIDEO.
Thats great - regards JG
Hi John. Thanks for your compendium of techniques - very useful indeed.
New Zealand physio here. Nice technique - I've used it a lot. I find I can get a fair way down the thoracic spine by modifying it - say to about T7 anyway.
I use a plinth bolted to the floor - those portable massage tables are too unstable. Then buckle the sitting patient onto it with a seat belt around their pelvis. So they're thoroughly anchored.
Then when leaning back, I can hook my fingers (one set of hooked fingers reinforcing the other) over each spinous process in turn, from C7 down to about T7. Because it's so stable, I can keep up a strong, sustained, specific traction of each vertebrae in turn. Say for about 30 seconds or until my fingers give out.
I find this long sustained IV traction really useful for stretching tightened collagen around the tight joints. So they can stay freer better, not just tighten up again fast. You can add in more extension as part of the technique, of course.
Thank you! Cheers! Regards JG
A nice and easy approach to mobilize column on flexion/extension and also side bending. Very nice technique indeed. Well done.
Glad you liked it! Regards JG

Thanks for sharing and pleased you enjoyed the techniques and they worked, regards JG
Superb sir
Thanks so much, regards jG
@John Gibbons
These techniques are incredible/outstanding* doctor. Your own way of approach is well (honestly saying, i have no words to experess mine after seen your's 📽️). Nevertheless! I felt good after seen this.
Moreover, i expect to know 'how to prevent🤔 ourself from this muscle injury/cramp after recovered once'. Due to it's had happen every particular circumstance unavoidably(even maintained good posture/doing exercise).
Hence, i asked the chaos with you.
Provide your valuable suggestions!(if possible)🤝🏻

Wow ,this is very helpful. But sir, how much pressure you give during these mobilization?
Depends as each patient is different, regards JG
@@JohnGibbons thank you
I’d like to receive that, and I’m not sure if I have to work that hard to mobilize the spine.

It is very helpful.
Thanks very much
I am an Osteopath, regards jG

Very good, I think this is very good to work on extension. Do you have a comfortable solution to go more in flection?
Thanks and you can adapt this technique easily enough to improve flexion, regards JG
@@JohnGibbons muchas gracias por esta información. Como quisiera estar Servando de allí. Para qué me ayude. Tengo un año con este dolor después que recibí radiación en la mamá, y axila yo creo q eso fue espero entienda gracias, *****
Great, do you need another model. You could work on me for ever and day. Love all this. Thanks 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thats what they all say, regards JG
Would thoracic mobilisation be a procedure you would undertake for someone who has a spinal cord stimulator inserted in his epidural space - and having severe neck and shoulder issues?
Mmmm.not sure I would if honest - unless the Doctor who did the procedure says it was ok as not come across it before, regards JG
@@JohnGibbons thank you for replying - are you please able to explain what 'headscrapes' are - specifically DNF stage 2 10 x 5 second holds headscrapes
Esas manos estan bendecidas gracias 🤗🙏🤲

Hi, thanks for the message even though I dont understand it as not fluent in French....regards JG
This is great what did you say though along the spine, a gulley? What is that?
Either side of the spine there is a room to fit the fingers so I call it a gulley - not an anatomical word but makes sense to me, regards JG
@@JohnGibbons oooh that makes sense to me too now I never use that word so I wondered if maybe I missed an A&P term or something I tried to google it but the light I just wasn’t spelling it correctly! Thank you for your help and awesome insight I love your videos and teaching!
Gracias en que Pais yo estudie educación fisica deportes y recreación pero ahora sufro dolores mas que todo lumbar y se me refleja a piernas y bueno ahora quiero ser yo la que me mejore desde Venezuela 🤗🙏🤲

I think she has a degree in physical education and sports but she is dealing with pain on the lumbar area and legs and wonders what she can do to get better
can we do this exercise for herniated disc
You only have herniated disc in the middle cervical area and lower two lumbar so this technique is fine to do, regards JG
Thanks
Thank you, regards JG

Does this fix thoracic facet disorder?
It will help mobilise the spine but doesn't fix anything, regards JG
Would this be good for hyperkyphosis?
The technique would help for sure, I do another video on thoracic treatment, which is better for you...regards JG
@@JohnGibbons thank you so much for your reply. Im always trying to improve, I just happened to come across your video.
What is this technique called?
Upper thoracic mobilisations - regards JG
❤❤❤❤❤

Can a PTA do these?
Not sure what a PTA is as dont have them in the UK, regards JG
@@JohnGibbons oh, physiotherapist assistant. Thanks
Can it help me in reducing thoracic kyphosis
Possibly if you catch the condition early enough, regards JG
There is only 47 degree of curve In my thoracic spine.
잘보고 갑니다ㅎㅎ
Could we safely use those for either kyphosis or scoliosis? thanks
You can as not manipulations - regards JG
Cómo puedo ver y escuchar los videos en español ??
Hello, I'm a young Korean physical therapist.
'm going to do what I learned in the video to reduce chest flexion in a 90-year-old man.
Is there anything I should be careful about when copying what I learned after watching the video?
What can I do if density in thoracic spnie how should we mobilize thoracic spine
I will add another video soon as will help, regards JG
Ok
👍👍👍👍
Thanks for the message, regards JG

Thanks for the message, regards JG
Hufe fb of your sir.
my mom walked in and got the wrong impression of what i'm watching
She shouldn't as a professional educational video, regards jG
Design a machine that can do this
Would be amazing if you did, regards JG
sir, can you thrust during 2nd manipulation?
I personally wouldn't as the thoracic won't like forced extension, regards JG
This is great. Thank you.
You're very welcome! Regards JG
