Spinal and Peripheral Manual Therapy Treatment Techniques

This two-day course will present the Mulligan approach to manual therapy for the lumbar spine as well as for the lower extremity. This manual therapy course will include lecture, patient demonstrations, and lab time to give the participants a thorough and in-depth coverage of the Mobilization with Movement approach for the lower quadrant. This unique approach to manual therapy was discovered and developed by Brian Mulligan F.N.Z.S.P. (Hon), Dip. M.T. from Wellington, New Zealand. This simple yet effective approach addresses musculoskeletal movement disorders with pain free manual techniques for restoration of function and abolition of pain.
