Zusammenfassung:To the Editor: Spinal manipulation of infants and children is a global concern. The International Federation of Manual and Musculoskeletal Physical Therapists (IFOMPT) and the International Organisation of Physiotherapists in Paediatrics (IOPTP) started a task force in 2020 to develop a position statement on the safe and effective use of manipulation and mobilisation in the paediatric population.
