Many people have fallen down stairs and either broken or severely sprained their ankles. Once it has healed many still complain that after a few minutes of exercise the pain is excruciating and that they are unable to walk down stairs. With joint mobilization therapy this can be overcome and normal activities can resume.
This therapy includes massages so that it decreases any stress and will improve fluid circulation creating and energetic balance. It is done with the purpose of healing a certain musculoskeletal condition. Orthopedic specialists can describe each muscle or muscle group that needs to be manipulated and can explain to the client exactly why that specific one needs to be worked on. They are thought to be more clued up on muscle then the general physician.
A gliding or plane type is the carpals of the wrist and has a sliding movement between the vertebrae. The hinge is the elbow and this is more like a door hinge that allows extension and flexion. The condyloid joints are where two bones fit together with an odd shape; one is concave the other convex. These joints allow for adduction, abduction extension and flexion movements.
The tendons are a band of tough fibrous connective tissue that connect the muscle to the bone and can withstand a lot of tension. These are similar to ligaments and are made up of collagen. Tendons and muscles work together so that bones are able to move easily. The bursa is a small sac filled with fluid and lined by the synovial membrane. It helps to provide a cushion effect between the bones and muscles around the joint.
Many of these names might seem unfamiliar so here is a quick breakdown. The abduction is the movement that is away from the mid-line of the body, while adduction is towards the mid-line. The extension is the straightening of the limbs and flexion is the bending. Rotation is the circular movement around a fixed point.
Joint therapy is done by slowly bringing the joint through a small and precise range of motion. This is done very slowly and never involves a fast thrust which is normal for chiropractors. It focuses on loosening the deeper ligaments and capsules. Stretching of muscles is invaluable in helping to increase the flexibility of most of the soft tissues as well.
Osteopathy is a type of alternative medicine and claim that the wellbeing of a person is all about their muscles, bones, ligaments and connective tissue functioning well together. They require having special training in the musculoskeletal system. Their primarily treatment is of stretching, massaging and moving muscles and joints which help the body to heal itself quicker.
These specialists are also trained in this, but do not always follow to the EBM. They are effective in treating any medical condition but not lower back pain. This form of massage works well with the treatment of some neck, shoulder and limb pains.
