Dr. Gerard Farrell (E-mail, X) is interviewed by Stephen M. Shaffer on his recent manuscript, "Autonomic nervous system and endocrine system response to upper and lower cervical spine mobilization in healthy male adults: a randomized crossover trial." This paper was published in the Journal of Manual and Manipulative Therapy. This interview will be interesting for the practitioner looking to improve their understanding of a normal vs dysfunctional stress response in the body and the potential impact of cervical spine manual therapy.
