Mulligan Concept treatment is a unique manual treatment technique called “Mobilization with Movement” (MWM), which blends active patient movement with prolonged passive joint mobilization. This globally recognized technique, created by Brian Mulligan, is very successful in addressing joint limitations, discomfort, and mobility deficiencies in the spine and limbs.
The idea of fixing minor “positional abnormalities” in joints, which are thought to be the root cause of many musculoskeletal issues, is central to the Mulligan Concept. Therapists may frequently accomplish quick, painless increases in range and function by using a particular glide or mobilization in the appropriate plane while the patient performs the problematic action. Mulligan methods are divided into three categories: MWMs for peripheral joints, SNAGS (Sustained Natural Apophyseal Glides), and NAGS (Natural Apophyseal Glides). The paradigm maximizes involvement and results sustainability by allowing for both self-management and therapist-led approaches.
Instant pain alleviation, quick functional improvement, and a solid safety profile are only a few benefits of Mulligan Concept Therapy, given that its treatments are administered by qualified professionals. The Mulligan technique, which is taught to MHC’s therapists, guarantees that clients receive evidence-based progressions, painless corrections, and real-time feedback while keeping person-centered care at the center of therapy. This closely relates to our goal of assisting patients in safely and quickly reaching significant milestones.
