I have often used cervical AP mobs where referred events to the upper limbs and head are suspected . AP mobs will often incur neuralgic and other altered sensations to be felt along the nerve during treatment. This may offer some confirmation of the level and likelihhod of facet/nerve involvement in distal pain etc. Rapid reductions in those referred events can often be had with AP's . It is less well tolerated , though with care and persistance , a very usefull method.
The so called frozen shoulder pain and related C4/5/6 symptoms are easily relieved this way, though for complete resolution , this is best used in combination with PA's , dural stretches and sometimes MET type muscle tone reductions.
