Neurodynamics or neural mobilization have become a popular treatment for musculoskeletal disorders with a neural element. A problem is that clinicians are applying the approach as a default addition to physical treatment.
A common thought is: “If the nerve hurts, let’s mobilize it”. But neural mobilization is only a general technique because it does not target causal dysfunctions.
This is an introduction to the importance of specific dysfunctions and how to target them, as is usually done with musculoskeletal approaches.
Learning Objectives:
- Discuss inclusion and exclusion criteria for Neural Mobilization.
- Review introduction to dysfunction categories.
- Demonstrate progressions: severe pain to athletic levels.
- Review resolution strategies.
This summarizes the main statement which is: Neural mobilization and neurodynamics are different. Neural mobilization moves nerves non-specifically. Neurodynamics is a diagnosis and treatment system based on movement dysfunctions of the nervous system.
