Cervical SNAGs | Neck Self-Mobilization

[@kenjohnson8948]

Very helpful video that was easy to understand on how to do the SNAG exercise.

[@fengtianshi1090]

I try this 1st time and it just removes my headache instantly

[@chrisgustafson9342]

My physical therapist just showed me how to do this during my vertigo therapy when I told her I get neck/headaches like today, three or more mornings per week. TA DA! RELIEF!!! HOLLY-LOO-YA!!!

Very good video thank you !

[@doctorbobdc]

This is a good video, thank you. May I suggest, in performing these motions that the patient lead with their eye gaze, in order to engage the complete physiological chain of motion.

[@Unknown11Anonymous]

Thank you guys for your amazing work on this channel! Do you know if there is any study that shows if the SNAGs are effectively moving C1-C2 (maybe with dynamic X-ray) ? I'm just wondering if the belt can transmit the right amount of force in the good direction or if the mobilization is not so specific. Thank you for you answer!

[@Physiotutors]

Happy you like the channel! Not aware of any studies. With the rotations we can imagine that they are relatively specific considering that there is not much rotation possible on C0-C1 and C2-C3. With the anterior and posterior glides, there will certainly be movement of C2-C3 segments. Regarding to the general evidence around MT we don't think it is highly important to be very specific for the mobilizations to be effective.

[@simoneperesmarkarian2443]

It looks a great exercise. Before I try it I would like to clarify something. I could not understand if your head moves against the belt in a resistance way or if the head should be completely relaxed and acting more like a stretch movement.

[@bettiebdangerous]

This my favorite to do and with patients

[@criticalthinker7822]

What if the front throat muscles feel tight? Thanks

[@enlightened166]

Thank you for this! Is it okay to perform isometric neck exercises after I perform SNAGs?

[@mannequinplayer]

sank you verdi much!

[@gauravmehra4599]

How many reps and how many times a day do you suggest these exercises to be done. I've been dealing with cervicogenic headaches for 3 years now.

[@grahamy3400]

I have had diagnosed c3 headaches. Chronic neck aches.Cough or sneeze get a short term headache. Tried these exercises and wonderful results. Thanks.

[@shutty11]

Great video guys. Regarding sets and reps does the literature provide specific allocation or is it directed at the patient level of function?

[@iJawMan]

Doing this exercise started my neck issues that I have now been dealing with for 12 years... Is it possible that I did the exercise incorrectly and it caused hyper-mobility?

[@ridewithduke2502]

Belt force should be ?

[@Physiotutors]

Adapted so that it does not provoke pain. don't go crazy

[@vasileiospetropoulos2046]

I have a question with knee flexion in supine position and applying pressure do we stress the posterior or the anterior horn of the meniscus? Thanks. For answering this question

[@EllieAlexandra-b9f]

If the unilateral is unilateral on left side in which direction the rotation should performed left or right??

Doing this exercise brings on dizziness 10 minutes after. Should I stop or carry on?

[@1lapmagic]

Step 1 put a belt around my neck: Check

[@roseker3288]

Is this manipulation good even when cervical instability is present?

[@MrISonicI]

For what does SNAG stand?

[@Physiotutors]

Sustained natural apophyseal glide. It‘s Mulligan terminology

[@christopherwatson283]

You don't need the belt. Use your hands. You will need to be very diligent with chin tucks. Hard core chin tucks till you move c-1/2. Result will be LockJaw for about 5 minutes. Then your body has to heal. People are left dislocated all the time. Traction will be needed for serious dislocations.

Would this work for C8 T1 compression on faucet joints?

[@Physiotutors]

only upper cervical spine

[@maryannraun5858]

I have cervical vertigo coming from the upper neck. I tried these movements and it set off a terrible vertigo reaction that lasted for 12 hours or so. Any suggestions on how to incorporate snag if it causes symptoms? Symptoms were not noticed during the movement, but started about 5 minutes after. Should I be starting with something else? I am already seeing a muscle therapist, chiropractor and receiving vestibular rehabilitation. Thanks!!!

[@ladyannabelle491]

I started experiencing headache then it went down to the back of my neck…took panadol woke up the next morning still with the pain…decided to google and saw this technique…just tried it and I can say I feel much better…the pain is till there with movement but I feel much better. I heaved a great sigh of relief😮‍💨….thanks ! :) Left with the headache tho 🫤
