Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
* Are manual therapists receptive to employing a sensing-glove system to measure the force applied during spinal manipulations on patients?
* Can we enhance manual therapists' attitudes towards this system through either a brief informational video demonstration or a supervised practice session with the system?
Researchers will compare the impact of a 7-minute informational video to that of a 20-minute supervised practice session to determine if manual therapists' attitudes towards the use of a sensing-glove while treating their patients can be positively influenced.
Participants will:
* Engage in a single experimental session.
* Complete a questionnaire at the beginning of the experimental session.
* Undergo one of the two interventions and promptly complete two questionnaires following this intervention.
* Undergo the other intervention and promptly complete the same two questionnaires following this intervention.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Video followed by practice
Participants will initially view a 7-minute informational video followed by a 20-minute supervised practice session with the sensing-glove system. Acceptability and usability perception will be assessed after each intervention.
Video
A 7-minute video demonstrating the sensing-glove system, how it can be used to assess manual therapy biomechanics, and its relevance in research and clinical contexts. The video was created by the research team via a voiceover PowerPoint presentation.
Practice session
A 20-minute practice session during which participants received verbal information about the sensing-glove system. While wearing the sensing glove, participants performed palpation and manual therapy techniques (palpation, spinal mobilization/manipulation to the cervical and thoracic spine) on a human-sized manikin, guided by the researcher.
