2.3.3 Manipulation of the 5th - 10th Ribs Sitting

This video demonstrates a sitting technique that is used often as a mobilising to the Thoracic spine and ribs and it can be applied in a Muscle Energy fashion. In order for it to be applied as a manipulation rotation is introduced as the primary lever and secondary components are introduced to build the barrier. The impulse is in rotation and care should be taken to ensure the barrier is firm in order to keep the impulse amplitude small.
