How does a joint manipulation treatment work?
Joint manipulation is a harmless treatment method that mainly focuses on the practitioner using their hands on the problematic areas.
In addition to the hands, various accessories, such as a massage gun, can be used to soften and relax your joints, for example.
Joint manipulation involves using your hands to gently extend the joint being treated. When it reaches a position slightly longer than you can move it yourself, a gentle but rapid movement is made to pull the joint surfaces apart.
When the joint surfaces separate, there is a clicking or snapping sound. This is completely normal and can be a little surprising at first.
What joint manipulation does for you
Why does it 'pop' when I go to the physiotherapist?
Why is it that when the chiropractor makes that last, sudden movement, makes a cracking sound? You are not alone in asking these questions.
The sound comes from a change in pressure inside the joint being treated. You can compare the experience to opening a tightly sealed jar. The "popping" sound when the lid is released from the glass jar is the same phenomenon in the joint.
It should not hurt to be treated with joint manipulation. If you have major problems being treated, you may feel a little pain immediately after the sudden movement, in order to feel more relaxed in the area than before the treatment.
Joint manipulation involves the prevention, treatment and rehabilitation of areas where you have reduced mobility and experience discomfort and pain.
The goal of joint manipulation is to quickly restore mobility in the affected areas.
If you have severe problems, it may take several treatments on the same area before you feel much improvement. But even after the first time, you should notice a difference.
The differences may be that you can move your neck, for example, without it being as painful as before. The whole area is more relaxed than before the treatment, giving a more comfortable feeling.

Exercise pain after treatment
It is common for the person being treated to experience a feeling that can be described as a workout the day or days after the visit to the chiropractor.
