Mulligan Concept Mobilisation Therapy in Bangalore
Mulligan Concept Mobilisation Therapy in Bangalore
At Advanced Physiotherapy Clinic, we are experts in Mulligan Concept Mobilisation Therapy, a manual therapy technique that is used worldwide. Mulligan’s therapy can instantly restore joint movement and relieve pain — without pain. Mulligan’s intervention was developed by Brian Mulligan, and consists of gentle joint mobilization and ongoing, active movement by the patient.
What is Mulligan Concept Mobilisation Therapy?
The Mulligan Concept is a manual therapy approach that consists of a combination of moving the patient and mobilizing the joint (MWM). This is a treatment that is utilized to restore functional joint motion. Unlike traditional manipulation methods, this approach is pain-free — performed during active movement.
Mulligan’s method treats positional faults of the joint. Positional faults are minor malalignment in joints that contribute to pain, stiffness, or movement limitation. Mulligan’s work allows for correction of positional joint faults, yielding immediate and lasting improvements in mobility.

- SNAGs: For spinal and neck pain
