Joint Mobilization

PMP Pain Center offers joint mobilization to address limited range of motion, movement restrictions, and stability issues through manual hands-on techniques. Our skilled licensed physical therapists work to restore normal joint function, which helps you regain ease of movement and reduce discomfort.

Restoring Joint Mobility and Flexibility with Targeted Hands-On Technique

Our joints work hard every day to support our movements — from walking and sitting to lifting and even simply reaching for something. Over time, wear and tear, injury, or several health conditions can limit their ability to function smoothly. When this happens, pain and stiffness can make even the simplest routine tasks difficult. Joint mobilization involves various techniques that aim to do two things: restore and improve your overall joint function. At PMP Pain Center, our therapists use precise, gentle manipulations to address these symptoms, so you can move comfortably and confidently.

What Is Joint Mobilization?

Joint mobilization is a manual therapy technique that focuses on improving the movement and function of your joints. During this therapy, a skilled therapist gently moves and stretches your joints to reduce stiffness, ease pain, and increase your range of motion. 

Our physical therapists at PMP Pain Center perform different types of joint mobilization, including oscillatory mobilizations, sustained mobilizations, and manipulations to deliver optimal results and allow our patients to experience relief more quickly.

Common Conditions Treated with Joint Mobilization

Joint mobilization offers a safe and non-invasive way to manage and relieve common joint issues. Physical therapists apply this technique to various areas of the body where a joint exists, but there are common areas where joints work extra hard due to repetitive movements or stress.

Here are some of the conditions mobilization technique can treat:

  • Shoulder pain
  • Acute and chronic back pain
  • Knee osteoarthritis
  • Hip osteoarthritis
  • Plantar fasciitis
  • Ankle sprains or instability
  • Wrist fractures
  • And more!
