Physiotherapy for Patellofemoral Pain with Mulligan Technique
Do you feel pain around or behind your kneecap while climbing stairs, squatting, or getting up from a chair? Does prolonged sitting make your knee ache? Do you hear clicking or grinding sounds during movement? These symptoms may indicate patellofemoral pain syndrome.
Patellofemoral pain syndrome occurs when the kneecap (patella) does not move optimally within its groove during knee motion. Muscle imbalance, poor lower limb alignment, overuse, or weak hip and thigh muscles can increase stress on the joint, causing pain and discomfort.
The Mulligan Concept uses Mobilization with Movement (MWM) to improve patellar tracking and knee joint mechanics during active movement. By applying a gentle corrective glide while you move, pain can often be reduced immediately, allowing more comfortable function.
