Emphasis is placed on classification and differential diagnosis. The latter section focuses on manual therapy practice, including practitioner training, hand mechanics, fundamental and compound manipulation techniques, and treatment strategies for different clinical types of cervical spondylosis. Syndrome differentiation and the Eight-Principle diagnostic system guide clinical decision-making, with additional discussion of preventive strategies.
