Study Notes
Mobilization Techniques
- Mobilization techniques involve various methods like oscillation, sustained, distraction, glide, long axis traction, and progression to gain ROM (Range of Motion).
- Glide: movement parallel to the treatment plane.
- Distraction: movement perpendicular to the treatment plane.
- Long axis traction: movement can be parallel or perpendicular.
- Sustained vs. Oscillation: different types of movement for mobilization.
Direction of Glide for ROM
- Direction of glide is determined by the concave/convex rule to increase ROM in specific joints (shoulder, hip, knee, ankle).
- Rolling always occurs in the direction of the moving bone.
- Pure rolling doesn't happen in healthy joints; accompanied by sliding or spinning.
- Concave-convex rule:
- Convex moving on concave: roll and slide in opposite directions.
- Concave moving on convex: roll and slide in the same direction.
Specific Joint Mobilizations
-
Shoulder (convex on concave):
- Caudal/inferior glide: increases flexion and abduction ROM.
- Posterior glide: increases flexion and internal rotation (IR) ROM (caution: thinner posterior capsule).
- Anterior glide: increases extension and external rotation (ER) ROM (caution: potential for dislocation).
-
Hip: (details omitted)
-
Knee (concave on convex):
- Posterior glide: increases flexion ROM.
- Anterior glide: increases extension ROM.
-
Ankle:
- Posterior glide: increases plantar flexion (PF) ROM.
- Anterior glide: increases dorsiflexion (DF) ROM.
