Spinal mobilization is a hands-on technique used by physiotherapists to improve spinal mobility and reduce pain by applying controlled movements to the spine. This technique is effective for treating conditions such as neck and back pain, disc herniations, or stiffness caused by muscle tension. Spinal mobilization helps to improve the range of motion in the spinal joints, relieve pressure on nerves, and reduce pain.
The treatment involves gentle, rhythmic movements applied to the spine, which helps reduce inflammation, improve flexibility, and restore proper alignment. Spinal mobilization is often used alongside other therapies like strengthening exercises, posture correction, and lifestyle advice to achieve optimal results.
This technique is highly beneficial for patients experiencing chronic pain or discomfort in the spine, enhancing functional movement and reducing reliance on medications.
