Course Overview

Alternative Treatments for Cervicalgia

In this hands on workshop Dr. Rubinstein will introduce participants to methods to address neck pain through muscle energy stretching of the cervical vertebrae. This grade III manipulation technique is a gentle means of addressing cervical subluxations without a high velocity thrust. Instead, the vertebral segment is isolated and stretched back into alignment. This technique is especially applicable for the necks of elders and those who are hesitant to receive HVLA manipulation.
