Comparative Short-Term Effects of Two Thoracic Spinal Manipulation Techniques in Subjects With Chronic Mechanical Neck Pain: A Randomized Controlled Trial Both maneuvers improved neck mobility and mechanosensitivity and reduced pain in the short term. No major or clinical differences were found between the groups. In the between-groups comparison slightly better results were observed in the Toggle-Recoil group only for cervical extension (p = 0.009), right lateral flexion (p = 0.004) and left rotation (p < 0.05).
