A very common form of joint therapy is joint manipulative therapy.  Though the name seems a bit ominous, the truth is that many people are benefiting from this form of joint therapy every day.  A visit to the chiropractor is a good example of joint manipulative therapy.  When a joint is manipulated or moved beyond its normal physical operating range (past the joint's limit of motion) you may hear an actual popping or cracking sound.  The sounds are caused by little gas bubbles that form in the joint fluid.  The sounds are indicative of a clean separation of the joint.  This form of joint therapy could cause a small amount of inflammation that can by eased by a natural anti-inflammatory medicine such as Celadrin.
