Discover the practical foundations of joint mobilization for extremities in this updated 8th edition of Freddy Kaltenborn’s classic book.
This volume focuses on the underlying biomechanics and fundamentals of thrust and non-thrust manual joint treatment techniques for extremities. The techniques have been carefully selected to be safe in the hands of beginning students.
Advanced mobilization progressions outside the resting position include guidelines for how and when it is safe to move toward and into the limit of movement restriction.
The updated 8th edition of The Extremities features 190 color photographs that illustrate basic and alternate grips and the use of wedges, fixation straps and mobilization straps. It includes an Extremities DVD that features over 150 short video clips (no audio) - the perfect accompaniment for visual learning outside of class.
