Abstract

|
Joint mobilization refers to techniques that are used to treat joint dysfunction such as when there is stiffness reversible joint hypomobility, or pain. Currently there are several schools of thought and treatment techniques that are popular in the United States. and leading practitioners and educators are attempting to blend common points to yield more uniform treatment from the various approaches. In order to effectively use joint mobilization for treatment, the practitioner must know and be able to evaluate the anatomy, arthrokinematics, and pathology of the neuromusculoskeletal system and to recognize when the techniques are indicated or when other stretching techniques would be more effective for regaining lost motion. Indiscriminate use of joint mobilization techniques when tot indicted could lead to potential harm to the patient’’s joints.
