Manual Therapy Force Perception Scale

Manual Therapy

The objective of this observational study is to pilot a scale designed to assist clinicians in evaluating the force they perceive during manual therapy.

The main question it aims to answer is:

- Are clinicians able to evaluate the force they use when delivering manual therapies to their patients using a scale?

For the pilot test, licensed chiropractors administer manual therapies on a manikin.
