A Massage Therapist's Guide to Joint Mobilizations

A Massage Therapist's Guide to Joint Mobilizations

In this course manual osteopath and registered massage therapist Mike Everson is going to guide you through how to deliver joint mobilizations for the entire body. In massage therapy, joint mobilizations can be used to treat both joints and soft tissues. Joint mobilizations are performed when a bone or vertebrae is moved to relieve tension, stiffness, pain and improve range of movement. Joint mobilizations are delivered with various pressures and are graded one to five. The pressure used with joint mobilizations is dependent on desired outcomes and clinical intuition used by the therapist. 

Joint Mobilizations are one of the most effective tools a manual therapist can use for treating a variety of conditions. Yet, joint mobilizations are often not focused on in some education and training programs, leaving this valuable skill misunderstood and underused. Most massage therapists leave their training with very little experience and lack of confidence when mobilizing the hips, ribs, thoracic spine TMJ etc. As a result, missing out on potentially the missing link when it comes to providing more useful treatments. 

This course is perfect for therapists looking to have a complete understanding of the human body. Knowing how the health of the joints can effect pain all over the body AND also how to treat that pain, is essential for any manual therapist to know to be as effective and helpful as possible.
