Joint Mobilization
If we talk about the joints, it’s the point where two bones actually meet and are surrounded by soft tissues. And these joints can function in an improper way after having problems with the soft tissues which could be damaged by the accident, injury, or any disease. Joint mobilization is a manual therapy technique where a physiotherapist uses his hands and slowly moves the joint in a very safe manner within a normal range of motion.
Joint Manipulation is also a manual therapy technique, however which involves a force that allows quick, and sharp movement of joints beyond its normal limits. Here, the physical therapist uses his hands to perform joint manipulation. This technique is quite effective in providing pain relief and helps in improving mobility.
Benefits of Joint Manipulation
Joint manipulation has a series of benefits including
  • Provide relief from the joint pain
  • Faster recovery time, in case of acute sprains
  • Good effect on the CNS.
