We would like to thank Stanley Paris for his comments. We appreciate the opportunity to clarify some issues and to discuss possible directions for future research in this area.
Paris has suggested that there may be some confusion between the resistance concepts of Maitland and those of Kaltenborn. The point "R1," as defined by Maitland1 and Magarey2 and used in our experiment, seems to be very closely related to Kaltenborn's "first stop," as defined by Paris. In a "physiological movement," one that the patient can perform voluntarily, there is usually a substantial amount of movement that is relatively free of resistance, followed by a region where resistance increases rapidly (for example, see Engin's article on biomechanics of the shoulder complex3 for the pattern of resistance in the glenohumeral joint)....
