Mulligan Concept

Mulligan Concept International second opinion physiotherapist and manual therapy and sports educator. Based in Dubai Mulligan.

The Mulligan Concept was founded by a master physiotherapist from New Zealand

Brian R. The concept is a completely new approach in assessment and treatment movement disorders. When movement is restricted at any joint in the body it is possibly caused by joint restriction in certain directions. When indicated, a painfree joint mobilization will commonly restore movement at that specific joint and results in an immediate decrease of pain or other symptoms. The assessment and treatment is unique, because results will be felt and observed immediately. While the method may not be suitable for all the types of movement or pain problems, it seems to help the most common problems encountered at the clinic. In other words, the method is a pain free joint mobilisation that will commonly restore movement deficit and decrease pain within few minutes.

Just completed a wonderful course in Hammamet ( Tunisia ) co teaching with my colleague Ahmed Hefny.

Ahmed is one of the most promising Mulligan Concept Teachers and certainly one of my favourite colleagues in the MCTA.

Dr.Ahmed will take over all the Mulligan Concept teaching activities in Tunisia. ๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ณ I am sure, Tunisia is lucky to have him on board.

Having introduced the concept to the lovely colleagues in Tunisia and the much fun, I m proud to leave Tunisia while confident that Ahmed will continue with new energy and much dedication.

Obviously, a sad moment knowing that I will reduce my visits to this lovely nation, but I will visit from time to other with my sports course and co teach when occasions occur.

I must thank the wonderful organiser Mohammed and Horison who will continue with Ahmed. I canโ€™t thank them enough for amazing hospitality and efforts in leading Tunisia ๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ณ into becoming one of the leading countries in Manual therapy knowledge and education

Also a huge thank you to the hundreds of Tunisian, Libyan, Moroccan and Algerian colleagues who joined our courses during the past five years. A big hug to everyone of you.

We continue the next days with the CMP examination and the Sports Manual Course before saying goodbye but see you in the near future โค๏ธ

She had since low back and pelvic pain, had pain with simple functional movements like walking, stairs and turning in bed. Was unable to run, jump or do any gymnastics.

On a Mulligan course in Yerevan few years ago. I was asked by her colleagues if we could help her.

She was treated twice with 5 days in between. She s been pain free since, she needed no other treatment and she s now a happy mother.

The video shows two sessions that where cut down to 10 min

The techniques I used are techniques I developed many years ago as part of my sports course curriculum.

The sports course was termed, Mulligan in Sports, ( MWM IN SPORTS) because the idea builds upon Brian Mulligans concept of MWM.

Our Story

The Mulligan Concept was founded by a master physiotherapist from New Zealand Brian R. Mulligan. The concept is a completely new approach in assessment and treatment movement disorders. When movement is restricted at any joint in the body it is possibly caused by joint restriction in certain directions. Using a painfree joint mobilization will commonly restore movement at that specific joint and result in immediate decrease of pain or other symptoms. The mechanisms involved in this process is speculative at this stage however one can assume that Mobilisations with Movement (MWM)/ Mulligan, somehow affects the nervous system in a way that allows changes in movement and pain perception to take place. The assessment and treatment is unique, because results will be felt and observed immediately when indicated for a specific person and problem.

While the method may not be suitable for all the types of movement or pain problems, it seems to be a superb method for the most common problems encountered at the clinic.

Mulligan s method is mainly usefull for movement restrictions be it common movement problems or sports related restriction or performance deficits.

In other words, the method is a pain free joint mobilisation that will commonly restore movement deficit and decrease pain within few minutes. The treatment may need to be repeated and supported with home exercise/self mobilisation and sometimes sportstape..
