Spinal Manipulation
Spinal Manipulation
The spinal manipulation will target the sacroiliac joint using the global pelvic manipulation technique. Participants will be positioned in lateral decubitus with the ACL-reconstructed limb placed uppermost. The therapist will apply progressive rotation and flexion at the hip and knee joints to increase tissue tension. To establish contact, the therapist's knee will be placed against the participant's flexed knee. A high-velocity, low-amplitude thrust will then be delivered to optimize joint motion, with cavitation being monitored throughout the procedure.
