The Effect of High Velocity Low Amplitude Cervical Manipulations on the Musculoskeletal System: Literature Review.

In manual therapy, high velocity low amplitude (HVLA) cervical manipulation techniques are frequently used, but often the physiological and biomechanical effects that can be obtained are not completely clear. The techniques are mostly used for the treatment of biomechanical joint dysfunction, but little is yet known about the possibility of using them in order to achieve better performance on healthy subjects. The objective of the study is to describe how cervical manipulation can impact on a musculoskeletal disorder.

The Physiotherapy Intervention for Shoulder Pain in Patients Treated for Breast Cancer: Systematic Review.

Pain and joint dysfunction of the upper limb following treatment for mammary carcinoma are defined as the most frequent side effects of surgery for mammary carcinoma by calculating a prevalence range in the USA that varies between 12% and 51% with regard to pain and between 1.5% and 50% for joint dysfunction. This objective of this study was to describe physiotherapy interventions that demonstrate efficacy based on the type of pain present in patients with shoulder pain who have been treated for breast cancer.
