Forces during clinical trials of SMT were measured on the\u00a0 sacroiliac joint, the thoracic spine, and the cervical spine using a\u00a0 thin, flexible pressure pad (EMED Inc.). Preload forces were found to\u00a0 correlate well with peak forces during SMT, suggesting that the force\u00a0 required to move the joint of interest to the end range of passive\u00a0 motion (i.e., the preload force required) influences the magnitude of\u00a0 the treatment thrust. Furthermore, the change in force from preload to\u00a0 peak (\u2206F) also correlated well with peak thrusting forces for all SMTs\u00a0 tested, suggesting that the stiffness of the joint of interest at the\u00a0 limit of passive range of motion may be related to peak thrusting\u00a0 forces.
