Mobilisation
Joints become stiff and painful following a trauma, surgery or through degeneration. This pain may cause the sufferer to stop moving their joints and so the stiffness and pain increase. Physiotherapy mobilisations are a manual therapy to improve and restore joint movement and therefore reduce pain/stiffness. Mobilisations can be used on your spine and on joints which are part of your upper and lower limb (the hip, shoulder and elbow).
