ClinConnect Summary

This study aimed to evaluate manual therapists' acceptability of a sensing-glove system for measuring spinal manipulation's force-time characteristics and compare the effectiveness of two interventions in enhancing their acceptability and usability perception. Participants will undergo two acceptability-enhancing interventions in randomized order: a 7-minute informational video and a 20-minute supervised practice session. At the start of the session and after each intervention, the acceptability and perception of usability towards the system will be assessed.
