Question about Maitland mobs...urgent

Hi guys,

How are you all

I have a question about a kind of Maitland's mobilizations

It is called "patellofemoral Maitland mobilization, tibiofemoral mitland mobilization"

Does any one have any idea about it and how to do it practically?

I would really appreciate it...

Thanks

Re: Question about Maitland mobs...urgent

if you can, get hold of one of G Maitland's books- Peripheral Mobilisations, he details how to do them far better than I can describe!

Hi Oscar,

Well, thank you for your replay, in fact I know that everything in Maitland's books but I do not have them and they are not available in my area right now, it will take time to bring them and I need the answer urgently.

Thank you.
