Figure 2

Representative example of a simulated L₆ HVLA-SM with a 100ms thrust duration and paraspinal muscle spindle recordings from the same L₆ afferent in 3 spinal joint conditions. Note the stability of baseline discharge between conditions and the decrease in afferent response during the HVLA-SM thrust with increased intervertebral joint fixation.
