The Mulligan Concept of Mobilization With Movement

"The real key with the Mulligan Concept and its effectiveness is that you know you're in the right place, doing the right technique, in the right direction, with the right grade while you're doing it, by symptom abolition."

We speak with physiotherapist Jack Miller [BSc(PT), DipMT(NZ), MClSc, DPT, FCAMPT] about the Mulligan Concept, including common terminology, techniques used, and current research. Jack also discusses the structure of the Mulligan Concept courses that he teaches.
