It was founded by Andrew Taylor Still in 1874.
Three techniques used at my office are safe and
gentle.
Soft tissue technique:
This approach applies pressure to the muscle
area around the spine. It consists of rhythmic
stretching, deep pressure and traction.
Muscle energy technique:
With this technique, the patient is directed to
use his or her muscles from a precise position
and in a specific direction against a
counterforce applied by the Doctor.
Counterstrain technique:
During this approach, the patient is moved
away from a position where motion is restricted
to one of greater comfort. This technique is
good for an acute injury.
