S.N.A.G.

I must say, using the SNAG technique from Mulligan has been very helpful as of late with my cervical patients.  Just today, before application, my patient has 40 degrees of L neck rotation.  I implemented a SNAG at multiple levels of the cervical spine.  After, my patient demonstrated 50 degrees of L neck rotation with less complaints of pain.  She was then able to perform passive range of motion with increased range.  I am very satisfied with the SNAG technique and am looking forward to a greater application of it.  I have even begun teaching her a home technique.  From hear forward, as long as needed, our treatment for her will include a SNAG.

Dealing with a neck issue?  Talk about it on the forum…
