Junior Jointcracker Joined: Jul 04, 2006 Posts: 2 How many joints can you crack and how? Pretty straight forward. Here's my list, from top to bottom: 1) Jaw; by opening and pushing on joint at the same time 2) Neck; either by tilting my head either side, or by turning my head to full turn and pushing with my hand 3) Middle of my back; by pulling my shoulders back, or by lifting my arms and pulling them down whilst pulling my shoulders back (like the movement you'd do on the lat machine at the gym) 4) Elbows; by extending my arms quickly from bent to full lock out 5) Wrists; by pulling and twisting my hand whilst flexing the wrist 6) Hand (fleshy bit where the thumb meets the hand); by pressing on the fleshy bit of the hand next to the thumb and bending the thumb back 7) Fingers/Knuckles; everyone's favourite - by pressing the fingers down onto the hand at the knuckles, or by twisting the fingers individually at the joints 8) Lower back; by twisting my trunk at the waist 9) Ankles; by fully extending my foot and pushing it further either with my hand or the other foot 10) Toes; either by flexing the toes hard, or by pulling them individually at the joints Back to top bod8 Posted: Tue Apr 01, 2008 3:11 am    Post subject: Supreme Jointcracker Joined: Mar 24, 2008 Posts: 1034 Location: South-westerly wow interesting post.

I 've read on this site that this joint can be cracked. It makes me wonder if I have been doing it with spinal extension/back bends. Every now and then a backbend will give me "the mother of all cracks' in my rear pelvic area right in the area of the SI joint. I always thought it was The lowest lumbar , which has one of the largest vertebrae that can be cracked. after reading about the SI joint thing I've been wondering if I've been cracking it right along. Any Chiropractors or any one else, out there know for sure? Can you crack/manipulate the SI joint?? the only joints i've heard of cracking, that don't for me are the jaw x2 (mine has poor ROM) and the sternum x2 Sternoclavicular(S/C) joint(can't seem to figure it out) anyone have a good stretch/move to crack the Sternoclavicular joints? And there are technically dozens of other tiny joints throughout the body , neck, and spine that it would be truly hard to say wether or not they are cracking also. Joints such as Craniovertebral joints, and costovertebral joints are new information for me. In part because of this site, THANKS JC, your the Man.

I think that, like other joints, it helps if you stretch and keep it limber (though it is something that is strange to loosen up). If you want to be able to crack it, look into some yoga or contortion (specifically frontbending).

I do stretch often and am very flexible. But no sternum cracks yet. Thanks for the technique though. I'll keep trying.

It was in some place.....big surfing place and seaside etc and everyone was doing it so i did it too as where we were jumping into was not very deep or far into the sea. Kind of an enclosed space. However one muppet jumped and his knee was so far out that he nearly smashed his leg on this rock and could have shattered it. _________________ Leaving on June 4th Back to top Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First     Page 1 of 1 Jointcrackers Forum Index » Joint cracking » How many joints can you crack?
