Wedges are essential tools in manual therapy to ensure the effectiveness of the therapy and comfort the patient.

We have 2 wedges of different sizes available: the specific shape and size are used to treat the spine, upper and lower limbs in a segmental and global manner.

The small gray manual therapy wedge is specially designed for mobilization of extremities and spine. The central groove relieves pressure on the spinous process, facilitating mobilization through of the transverse process. The bottom of the wedge is also can be used as a prepositioning tool for mobilization.
