Mulligan Concept™ – Upper Quadrant Course

The Mulligan Concept Upper Quadrant Course Details:

This two-day course presents a comprehensive and hands-on exploration of the MULLIGAN approach to manual therapy for the cervical spine, thoracic spine, and upper extremities. Through a blend of lecture, live patient demonstrations, and focused lab time, participants will learn to apply Mobilization With Movement (MWM) techniques in a clinical framework that emphasizes immediate functional change and pain-free outcomes. The MWM approach provides a skill-dependent, patient-centered intervention that restores joint and soft tissue function through precise, pain-free mobilizations and active patient movement. The course is rooted in the current concepts in neurophysiology, pain science, and motor retraining to support clinical reasoning and lasting functional results.
