Neurodynamic Sliding Verses Static Stretching

Participants supine with their cervical and thoracic spine supported in a forward flexed position. Simultaneous hip and knee flexion will be alternated dynamically with simultaneous hip and knee extension. The therapist will change the arrangement of movement depending on the tissue resistance level.

Participent lying supine, the therapist will passively position the subject into the straight leg raise position without discomfort or pain to the point where resistance to movement will be first felt.
