The therapist places the patient’s left elbow on his right palm and grabs the flexed dorsal side of the patient’s hand with his left hand. Then he performs three rotations of the forearm, clockwise, firmly securing the elbow. After that, he suddenly extends the elbow joint two times. The rotations should be performed at the maximum articular amplitude; the extentions should be performed with great caution, protecting the elbow joint.
This description presents the manner in which the procedure is performed on the left side of the patient. Similarly, the same steps are followed on the right side. In the standard version, the procedure is first performed on the left side and then on the right side.
