Manual stretching with neural and visceral manipulation: A boon to correct congenital torticollis
The Aim is to show that Manual stretching when combined with Neural and visceral manipulation overcomes the criteria where manual stretching individually failed. The combination of manual stretching with neural and visceral Manipulation shows positive findings in congenital torticollis infants. Problems like muscle shortening, Decreased Range of motion, decreased tissue extensibility was cured with manual stretching whereas increasing tolerance of infant for the treatment as well as tension release of entrapped nerves and organs is solved by Neural and Visceral Manipulation. Postural asymmetry is also solved by this combination. The conclusion is that Neural and Visceral Manipulation is given with Manual Stretching to increase tolerance, muscle length, range of motion and to correct Postural asymmetry
