Chiropractic Joint Mobilization

Mobilization is a form of stretching that is applied to stiff joints in order to optimize and restore range of motion, relieve pain and reduce muscle tension. This medically approved procedure performed by the doctor consists of small movements, usually applied as a series of gentle stretches in a smooth, rhythmic fashion to the individual’s joints. Mobilizations may be administered in various degrees of pressure, depending upon the sensitivity and stiffness of an individual’s joints.
