that music was random. Would you do these type mobs for someone with a cervical fusion? Have you ever?

[@motionguidancellc8332]

Hi there!
Yes. Mobilizations with Movement are safe for cervical fusion. Would need to greatly consider whether prudent to add overpressure though. The Motion Guidance contact pad is great for reducing contact discomfort during the technique.

@@motionguidancellc8332 Do you keep that glide/pressure all the way through for on the way back as well?

[@motionguidancellc8332]

@@FrozenVodka1 That is correct.

I'm confused!
What's the difference between MWM and SNAGs?

[@henryfong330]

Actually MWM is movement with mobilization and normally used to describe the treatment done for peripheral joints instead of the spine

[@augustussanchez8571]

@@henryfong330 Actually, you can MWM the spine as well, not just for peripheral joints.

[@augustussanchez8571]

MWM is mobilization with movements (ie peripheral joints AND spine) which can be used for SNAGs and NAGs.
