Mulligan Therapy

What is Mulligan Therapy?

Designed to reduce pain and improve the patient's range of motion the Mulligan technique involves Natural Apophyseal Glides (NAGS), Sustained Natural Apophyseal Glides (SNAGS), and Mobilization with Movement (MWM) for the treatment of musculoskeletal injuries.

How does it work?

The core of the Mulligan concept is the Mobilization With Movement (MWM). During the examination, the therapist will determine if a joint restriction, range of motion loss, or pain is being generated by a joint. Then, the therapist will reposition that joint, using their hands or a belt, in order to provide a situation that allows the patient to move further through the range of motion and reduce pain.
