WHAT IS MOBILISATION?
Mobilisation is the applicaiton of force at a joints end passive range of movement at a speed and force that the patient could overcome
Why Mobilise and Manipulate?
"Everything works BEST, when in the right place"
Connective tissues always adapt to their shortest functional length. In some cases these adaptations can create joint imbalances which leads to compensation movement patterns. These compensations often create your symptoms.
FMT targets joints of your foot and ankle, which are stiff, poorly aligned or dysfunctional and aims to gradually restore the way they work. This is achieved through a series of 'hands on' treatment sessions in conjunction with a specific tailored exercise regime.
Foot Mobilisation/manipulation Therapy requires short treatments that can produce results that last between 48 to 72 hours. If you have treatment regularly, the cumulative effects ensure that the results are experienced for longer periods of time
Every time you receive in FMT as a treatment, you will experience:
- Joint mobility improvements by freeing the area of soft tissue adhesions and other restrictions that are preventing mobility.
- Postural stability will be enhanced through promotion the body's proprioceptive (balancing) system to work better.
- Muscles around the joint will become stronger by increasing the muscle to nerve messages.
- The pain messages that are sent to the brain will also be decreased via joint stimulation.
FMT Will Benefit Any of the Following Conditions
- Ankle Pain - Including rehabilitation for a sprain
- Lateral foot pain - Cuboid syndrome
- Plantar Fasciitis - Heel spurs
- Bunion Pain
- Osteoarthritis
- Achilles tendinopathy
- Metatarsalgia
- Neuroma's
- Severs disease
- Stiff Joints - Those who feel that they just need a good old crack!
