Joint mobilization involves the gentle, rhythmic movement of a stiff or painful joint, performed by a trained physiotherapist.
These slow and controlled techniques help restore normal motion in areas such as your shoulders, neck, spine, hips, or knees, without causing discomfort.
It’s ideal for patients who want to improve mobility but prefer a gentler, low-stress option compared to traditional manipulations.
When a joint becomes restricted, the tissues around it — like ligaments, capsules, and muscles — can tighten and limit motion. Through careful mobilization, your physiotherapist helps:
Improve joint lubrication for smoother movement
Release tight capsules and adhesions
Restore natural joint alignment
Reduce stiffness and pressure in the surrounding tissues
This not only relieves pain but also helps your body move naturally again — safely and comfortably.
✅ Gentle and comfortable — no “crack” sounds
✅ Improves joint flexibility and range of motion
✅ Reduces stiffness and chronic discomfort
✅ Relieves muscle tension around the joint
✅ Suitable for people afraid of forceful manipulation
Joint Mobilization is especially helpful for people with:
Shoulder or neck tightness
Stiffness from posture or injury
Spinal or hip mobility restrictions
Post-surgical joint recovery
Osteoarthritis or joint degeneration
