Learning Goals

Upon completion of this class, you should be able to:

  • Summarize the concept of Mobilization with Movement (MWM) along with its technique guidelines
  • Identify spinal theories for the Mulligan Concept
    Describe techniques for applying MWM for the lumbar spine, sacroiliac joint, and hip

Behavioral Objectives

  1. Upon completion of the course, the participant will be able to explain the “PILL” acronym and expectation of a MWM application for a patient will low back pain.
  2. Upon completion of the course, the participant will be able to adapt a central SNAG for either flexion or extension into the treatment plan for a patient experiencing low back pain when sitting or standing.
  3. Upon completion of the course, the participant will be able to recommend a prone MWM for a patient with limited extension ROM and pain in the lumbar spine.
  4. Upon completion of the course, the participant will be able to develop a protocol that integrates the “Lion” exercise with mobilization belt into the treatment plan of a patient with unilateral pain in the upper lumbar segments.
  5. Upon completion of the course, the participant will be able to explain how to incorporate the self-SNAG technique to a patient with pain in the lumbar extension for their home program.
  6. Upon completion of the course, the participant will be able to integrate the bent leg raise technique for a patient with positive LSR test in the lower extremity.
  7. Upon completion of the course, the participant will be able to justify the use of the 2-leg rotation mobilization for a patient with a positive SLR in a lower extremity.
  8. Upon completion of the course, the participant will be able to explain the appropriate Mulligan strategy to evaluate a SI joint condition from a lumbar segment dysfunction in a patient complaining of low back pain.
  9. Upon competition of the course, the participant will be able to integrate a belt technique to improve hip IR motion in a patient with a capsular pattern.
  10. Upon completion of the course, the participant will be able to integrate a weight-bearing mobilization into the treatment plan of an athlete with tight adductors where abduction ROM at the hip is needed.
