Joint mobilization techniques are a manual therapy technique utilized to restore normal passive movement of a stiff, painful joint. These techniques can be performed not only to restore normalized motion, but also to reduce pain and muscle tension. Your therapist will complete a thorough evaluation to determine if the application of joint mobilization is appropriate for you. These techniques are essential in helping to maintain the long term function and mobility of your joints.
Specific diagnoses that we have seen first hand improve with joint mobilization techniques include ACL tears, patellofemoral pain, frozen shoulder, rotator cuff tears, plantar fasciitis, and shoulder impingement. We take care to incorporate manual techniques in to each one of our treatment approaches as appropriate. There really is no reason to wait any longer, please give us a call today.
