Description
An authoritative text and accompanying DVD presenting the growing evidence base for Mobilisation with Movement techniques
Developed over the past 26 years, Mobilisation with Movement (MWM) remains a relatively new form of manual therapy. It is, however,
becoming one of the most popular approaches for the management of musculoskeletal disorders.
Mobilisation with Movement:
The art and the science introduces the concept of Mobilisation with Movement, describes basic Mobilisation with Movement techniques
and outlines its principles of application.
The book summarises the emergent evidence base underpinning Mobilisation with Movement
techniques, including randomised controlled trials, and shows how far the technique has progressed since first introduced by New Zealand
physiotherapist Brian Mulligan in 1984.
This easy-to-use manual therapy textbook is an excellent reference for the clinician,
teacher, student and researcher and is intended to provide a nexus between the technique’s seemingly successful clinical approach and
its science base.
A series of case studies brings the practical art of Mobilisation with Movement to life, while highlighting
the underlying clinical reasoning and applied evidence base.
Audience:
Physiotherapist, Manual therapists, including manipulative, musculoskeletal, Sports, Manual, Orthopaedic and Chiropractic. Sports trainers, undergrad and postgrad students
