LARO

Concurrent application of pain-free accessory mobilization with active and/pr passive physiological movement

Performed at 2 or 3 per second for 1-2 minutes

Taking up the slack

Initial treatment; determine sensitivity

Relief of pain

SARO

Relax muscle guarding

Primarily used as stretching maneuvers

Applied parallel to the treatment plane

It equalizes cohesive forces, muscle tension, and atmospheric pressure acting on the joint

Grades and dosages of movement for non thrust and thrust techniques

Primarily used for treating joints limited by pain or muscle guarding

Passive end-range overpressure or stretching is then applied without pain as a barrier

Examination and evaluation

Small-amplitude distraction is applied when no stress is placed on the capsule

Rapid oscillations, like manual vibrations

Enough distraction or glide is applied

A distraction or glide is applied with an amplitude large enough to place stretch on the joint capsule and surrounding periarticular structures

Characteristics for documentation

Inhibit pain and maintain joint play

Inhibit pain

Suggested sequence of treatment to gain and reinforce functional mob

Stretch the joint and increase joint play

Non thrust sustained joint play techniques

Applied perpendicular to the treatment plane

Performed at 2-3 per second for 1 to 2 minutes
