Maitland Concept
The Maitland Concept is a method of physiotherapy that focuses on manual assessment and treatment of musculoskeletal conditions. Developed by Australian physiotherapist Geoffrey Maitland, it emphasizes a thorough evaluation of a patient's movement and pain responses. The approach includes specific hands-on techniques, such as mobilization of joints and soft tissues, to improve function and reduce pain. Practitioners tailor treatment based on individual needs and progress, using continual feedback from the patient to inform decisions. This method aims for optimal recovery and empowers patients in their rehabilitation journey.
