Manual Medicine Workshop! February 22, 2009


We're hoping you'd love to join us on our next "Sharing." Same time, same place:
AICA at Pasig, 9 am to five pm. This time, on spurring from colleagues that need this material most - those in practice - we're sharing our version of integration. Curiously, we're going to tackle Junctions, Overlaps, Interconnections, Gateways, and Pathways. So i Guess this should have been called the Manual Medicine Roadmap: Module One. Hehe. Too late. We already did the invites. But the invitation holds true: do join us if you wanna know how well your practice can go.

Hoping you pester Harold to sign up with us soon.

And may your beloved patients feel the functional difference that only a well-synthesized set of Evidence-Based protocols can bring.

Sincerely,

Movement With Mobilization

Movement with Mobilization (MWM) is based on Mulligan's work.
His SNAGs = Sustained Natural Apophyseal Glides involve passively (operator) introduced translation that is maintained while the patient goes toward the restricted endrange. The translatory or gliding force is typically maintained while a return to passive neutral is established.

One of the easiest and most useful techniques that can be taught to patients is the one involving a towel drawn against the nape an tugged on forward by the patient via handhold on either side. These have been called self-MWMs.


The Functional Techniques of Osteopathy appear to be the closest analogue.
