The combined movements of rolling, sliding, and spinning that occur at a joint to produce limb or trunk movement.

The specific movements occurring at the joint surfaces. Examples include rolling, sliding, and spinning.

The movement of bones around a joint. Examples include flexion, extension, abduction, etc.

The deliberate use of hands to apply force to body tissues, with the goal of improving health.

A type of manual therapy that involves gentle movements to improve joint mobility.

A type of manual therapy that involves a quick, forceful movement to restore joint movement.

Manual therapy techniques used to improve the function of soft tissues, like muscles and fascia.

A set of exercises and movements that help to restore the function of the nervous system.

When a convex surface moves on a concave surface, the roll and glide directions are opposite.

When a concave surface moves on a convex surface, the roll and glide directions are the same.

Indications for joint mobilization include pain, muscle guarding, restricted range of motion, and functional limitations.

Contraindications for joint mobilization include malignancy, osteopenia/ osteoporosis, unhealed fracture, acute injury with uncertain damage, and patient refusal.

Developed Chiropractic Medicine. Believed that vertebrae misalignment (subluxation) affects nerve impulses, leading to disease.

Published "Textbook of Orthopedic Medicine" in 1954. Developed a method for logical, clinically reasoned diagnosis called 'selective tissue tension testing'.

Popularized mobilization as an alternative to manipulation. Developed grades for mobilization, I-V, to quantify the intensity of the movement.

Established in 1970. A global organization that promotes orthopedic manual therapy education and research.

Founded in 1992. A U.S. organization focused on advancing orthopedic manual physical therapy.

A mechanical force is applied to trigger a chain of neurophysiological responses, ultimately leading to therapeutic outcomes.

Manual therapy techniques can improve joint mobility temporarily, but do not demonstrably change joint position permanently.

Manual therapy triggers the release of endogenous opioids (like endorphins) and reduces inflammatory cytokines in the body, decreasing pain perception.

A gentle, rhythmic movement applied to a joint, typically used to reduce pain and improve mobility.

A high-speed, low-amplitude movement applied to a joint, typically used to restore joint motion.

A type of mobilization that involves a small amplitude oscillation at the beginning of the joint's range of motion.

A type of mobilization that involves a large amplitude oscillation within the available range of motion.

A type of mobilization that involves a large amplitude oscillation up to and through the joint's resistance.

A type of mobilization that involves a small amplitude oscillation at and through the joint's resistance.
