I am gathering articles supporting the use of manipulation/mobilization for the treatment of MS disorders. So far I have Flynn's, Childs, and Rivetts. If anyone has any additional info, that would be great! Thanks in advance.

Curio,
If you go to this website [URL=http://www.orthopt.org/csm/handouts.asp]http://www.orthopt.org/csm/handouts.asp[/URL] you will see a link for "Manipulation in first Professional PT Programs". This acrobat reader file should point you in a good direction. Also, it probably goes without saying to perform a good medline search and to look closely at the works cited pages on the studies you already have. Good luck!

in the new JOSPT..Assessment of Lumbar Spine Kinematics using dynamic MRI: A proposed Mechanism of sagital plane motion induced by manual P/A mobs. Vol. 34, Number 2, Feb 2004.
By Kulig, Landel, and Powers.
It's an interesting article. PT needs more dynamic testing such as this to back up what we do!! [IMG]http://www.rehabedge.com/forums/smile.gif[/IMG] Hope this one helps.
