There are a variety of proven therapies including mobilization (pressure by hand gently coaxing movement of individual joints) and manipulation (controlled quick thrusting movement of the joint which often produces a clicking or popping sound) and exercise. Manipulative physiotherapy is a highly effective treatment approach, particularly in the early treatment of back and neck pain and joint injuries.
