When a door is not working properly, you would not just examine the door closed but also swing the door to determine if it was functioning correctly. A skilled Motion Palpation Doctor also uses such an approach when examining a patient. Our doctors are certified through the Motion Palpation Institute and provide a dynamic, specific and gentle approach for assessing the spine or other joints (ankle, foot, knee etc.). This often includes examining patients’ movements as they walk, squat, run or throw and then feeling the specific joint’s movement by hand. Once a restricted joint is identified, the doctors will then apply the most effective and biomechanically correct ways to mobilize the fixated joints, restoring proper function to these areas.
