Can you elaborate why stiff, hyper kyphotic people are not good candidates for thoracic HVLA adjustments? I'm hyper kyphotic and have experienced problems when thoracic thrusts were performed on me
It’s not that there’re not really good candidates for hvla manipulation. It’s more that it needs to be performed in a more efficacious manner. The prone posture produces more flexion and manipulation in this position requires more amplitude and force. Supine, standing or seated postures are more effective and better tolerated. Hope this explanation helps. Dr. M
