Sports Mobilisation
Welcome To Sports Therapy 2 Fitness Here In Preston.
What is Sports Mobilisation?
Sports mobilisation refers to a type of manual therapy aimed at improving joint function, movement, and flexibility. It involves controlled, repetitive movements or stretches applied to specific joints or soft tissues by a trained therapist. The goal is to restore or enhance the range of motion, reduce stiffness, and relieve pain, particularly in individuals involved in physical activity or sports.
Mobilisation techniques can vary in intensity and are tailored to the needs of the individual, depending on the condition being treated, the area of the body, and the person’s level of physical activity.
