WHAT IS THE POPPING SOUND DURING AN ADJUSTMENT?
While the popping noise does not have to occur for an effective adjustment, it is simply an audible release of gas, also known as joint cavitation. This gas is a combination of oxygen, nitrogen and CO2. When the joint is gapped, gas is released and you hear a “pop”. Once the joint is opened up, the synovial fluids re-lubricate the joint surfaces and motion is restored.
