The Maitland Concept
The Maitland Concept is a gentle, guided approach to physical therapy that focuses on restoring movement and reducing pain through hands-on techniques. It involves carefully assessing how joints and soft tissues move and then applying precise, small movements to improve restricted or painful areas. The goal is to promote natural healing by encouraging proper joint function without force or aggressive measures. This method emphasizes patient involvement, education, and individualized treatment to achieve better mobility and alleviate discomfort effectively.
