00:01 High velocity, low amplitude manipulation is a type of manipulation where you move a joint very rapidly a very short distance. 00:09 It’s when you find an area that needs help and then you find where the barriers are— how much can you side bend, how much can you rotate— and if it’s not where it should be, it can often just take a thrust, and crack them that way to ease motion. 00:25 That’s a high velocity, low amplitude thrust.
The lecture OMM Treatment: High Velocity Low Amplitude Technique by Tyler Cymet, DO, FACOFP is from the course Introduction to Osteopathic Treatment.
