Potential injury: Forceful high velocity cervical manipulation? It is possible that cervical manipulation could cause preexisting herniated discs that are not symptomatic to become symptomatic. Herniated cervical disc has been reported resulting from manipulation. REF: https://www.tulsaspinehospital.com/sites/default/files/OSBI-Research-Article.pdf Neurovascular damage may occur.
