High Velocity Low Amplitude Thrust Manipulation- A Clinical Pearl by Peter Gibbons, MB, BS, DO, DM-SMed, MHSc and Philip Tehan, DO, Dip. Physiotherapy, MHSc.
One of the common criticisms from patients of lumbar spine manipulation is that it can be uncomfortable due to strain and torsion felt in their spine and rib cage. Knowledge of biomechanics and spinal coupling can assist in positioning the patient so as to minimize the amount of rotation leverage and torsion on the spine and rib cage.

Why do you not have a hand on the lumbar spine to feel where the restrictive barrier is and to also ensure that you are getting the focus on the segment in question?
