Stretch mobilization
Grade III Tretch Mobilization:
Grade III stretch mobilizations are one of the most effective means for restoring normal joint play. Stretching shortened connective tissues in
muscles, joint capsules and ligaments can
- increase and maintain mobility
- delay progressive stiffness and loss of range of movement in chronic musculoskeletal disorders.
Hypomobility presenting with a hard end-feel is characteristic of a bony limitation and should not be stretched.
