1. Lifting Neck Behind Patient  
The patient is in the sitting position. Standing behind the patient, the practitioner supports the two lower rims of jaw with his two hands and puts the patient's occiputt against the chest to lift the patient’s head postero-superiorly to the battier position; then makes a sudden movement to extend the movement range of head and neck about half centimeter with the force delivered by the hands and the trunk, and loosens the head immediately (Fig 299). This manipulation can separate the facets of cervical vertebral joints and restore the locked subluxation joint by means of the spring force of muscles and tendons. This manipulation is applicable to the treatment of the subluxation accompanied by the spasm of musculi scalenus anterior. Click to read Chinese medicine Treatment for Syphilis.

2. Lifting Neck Before Patient
The patient is in the sitting position. Standing in front of the patient, the practitioner supports the two mandibular angles and the lower rims of the occiput with the parts between the thumbs and the index fingers of the two hands open, and props the projected anterior tubercle of the transverse process of the suffered segment with his flexed interphalangeal joints, then pulls the head up and makes a narrow ranged shaking to relax cervical muscles with the two hands acting laterally in coordination; then makes a sudden and controlled lifting postero-superiorly. At this moment, the practitioner thrusts the transverse process at the same time to restore the subluxation (Fig 300). This manipulation is applicable to the treatment of the cervical vertebral subluxation accompanied by the spasm of the musculi scalenus anterior. Click to read Raynaud's Disease in TCM.
