Effect of Spinal Manipulation on Eye and Head Movement Performance in Participants With Chronic Neck Pain: An Observational Study
There was no effect of SM on eye MTs. However, the significant effect of SM on head MT provides evidence for changes in head control following SM. Given the SM targeted the cervical spine, the changes in MT were only present for head movements, we propose the observed changes may result from both neuromuscular and sensorimotor adaptations following SM.
