Mobilizations with movement
Mobilizations with Movement were developed by Brian Mulligan of New Zealand and have become accepted as the leading concept in evidence-based manual therapy. This evening will introduce you to the fundamental principles of the Mulligan Concept of manual therapy. You will gain valuable clinically-oriented skills for your upcoming MSK placements and your long-term career. Come dressed for lab-style event. The program will be delivered by a founding member of the Mulligan Concept Teachers Association who has worked with Brian Mulligan since 1982.
