What is joint mobilisations?

Skilled manual therapy techniques to mobilise stiff joints, reduce pain, and restore normal range of motion.

Joint mobilisation uses graded oscillatory movements to ease stiffness, reduce pain, and restore the natural glide of a joint. It pairs well with exercise to lock in the gains.

How joint mobilisations works at Pegasus Peak

We identify the specific joint that's restricted and grade how stiff it is, then apply gentle, rhythmic glides to ease pain and restore its natural movement. We finish by giving you two or three exercises to hold the new range, so the improvement lasts beyond the treatment table.

Joint Mobilisations FAQs

Do I need a referral for joint mobilisation?

No — book directly. A referral is only needed for Medicare (CDM), Workers Compensation, CTP or NDIS-funded care.

Is it covered by private health insurance?

Yes. As part of a physiotherapy session it is claimable under most extras, with HICAPS on the spot.

Is this the same as a chiropractic adjustment — will you crack my joints?

No. Joint mobilisation uses gentle, graded, rhythmic glides rather than high-velocity manipulation, so there is no forceful cracking.

Does it hurt?

It is usually comfortable. You may feel firm pressure and some stiffness easing, but we grade it to your tolerance.

Which problems suit joint mobilisation?

Stiff necks, frozen shoulder, back and mid-back stiffness, and joints that have gone tight after a period in a cast or sling.
