No original methods or outcomes are reported.
This sports physical therapy commentary gives clinical reasoning and illustrative cases, but there is no finding to act on.
What this paper is
This is a narrative commentary on manual therapy in sports physical therapy. It discusses clinical reasoning, risks, dosage, and two illustrative cases, but it reports no original methods or outcomes, so there is nothing here to change your practice on.
The easy way to misread this
Do not read the two illustrative cases as evidence that manual therapy improves outcomes. The paper reports no original methods or outcomes.
