The effect of segmental manipulation of the cervical spine on grip strength in patients with mechanical cervical spine dysfunction

Thesis (M.Tech.: Chiropractic)- Dept. of Chiropractic, Durban Institute of Technology, 2002. x, 55 leaves / Chiropractic researchers have hypothesized as to how the removal of a cervical dysfunction may affect the nervous system negatively. However, little focus has been placed on possible optimizing effects, such as grip strength. This study attempted to establish that relationship. Therefore, the specific aim of this study was to determine the relative effectiveness of segmental manipulation of the cervical spine on grip strength in patients with mechanical cervical spine dysfunction.
