Joint Manipulation
Mobilisation aims to restore normal mechanical movement of a joint, returning synovial fluid to its normal resting place, thus reducing pain.
Joint manipulation is often characterised by a ‘popping’ or ‘clicking’ sound and is commonly used for pelvic and lower back issues. It is a type of passive movement whereby the physiotherapist uses high velocity, low amplitude thrusting manoeuvres on joints to elicit a pain relieving effect. Manipulation also ‘unlocks’ stiffened joints, improves joint range of motion and relieves musculoskeletal pain.
