The objective of this clinical trial is to assess manual therapists' attitudes towards using a sensing-glove system for measuring spinal manipulation force and to compare the effectiveness of two interventions in enhancing their attitudes. The primary questions it aims to address are: - Are manual therapists receptive to employing a sensing-glove system to measure the force applied during spinal manipulations on patients? - Can we enhance manual therapists' attitudes towards this system through either a brief informational video demonstration or a supervised practice session with the system? Researchers will compare the impact of a 7-minute informational video to that of a 20-minute supervised practice session to determine if manual therapists' attitudes towards the use of a sensing-glove while treating their patients can be positively influenced. Participants will: - Engage in a single experimental session. - Complete a questionnaire at the beginning of the experimental session. - Undergo one of the two interventions and promptly complete two questionnaires following this intervention. - Undergo the other intervention and promptly complete the same two questionnaires following this intervention.
