Barriers, range of motion and neutral points in somatic dysfunctional areas. Direct techniques are applied on either the physiological (i.e. myofascial release technique) or restricted barrier (high- velocity low-amplitude, muscle energy, articulatory and soft tissue techniques). Indirect techniques (functional, BLT and BMT) are focused on the pathological neutral point.
