Question

when a patient has contraindications to hvla adjusting/manipulation, you may still be able to mobilize the joint.

a) true

b) false

Explanation:

HVLA (High-Velocity Low-Amplitude) manipulation is a specific, forceful joint adjustment. When patients have contraindications to this aggressive technique, gentler, non-thrust joint mobilization methods (like graded mobilizations) are often still safe and appropriate to improve joint mobility without the risks associated with HVLA.

Answer:

a) True
