Massage and Mobilization Techniques:
Florida September 27, 2006
Hi,
My name is Fernando Soutullo I am a Florida License Physical Therapist and I would like to update everybody
that is interested in the field about different massage and mobilization techniques.
In this article I will talk about three different kinds of Mobilizations Techniques and how you can benefit
by applying them during your work.
Vibration, Trepidation and Sucution
Well as I clearly mentioned during my videos these techniques are good to be applied when performing Gentle
Mobilizations but you can use them anytime.
Getting us to start with the subject lets review them one by one
Vibration:
Vibration could be applied in two ways:
First: as a massage modality by placing your hands over the subject's body part and applying at the
same time fast, small, shaking movements, while performing vibration the member stays still and does not perform any waving movements.
Second: as a mobilization technique while grabbing one upper extremity (arm ) or lower extremity
(leg) and applying the same kind of shaking detailed before and making it to be transmitted to the entire extremity.
Example: Imagine a construction worker grabbing those big machines used to make a hole on the
pavement.
Trepidation:
This is a movement also applied to upper or lower extremities similar to vibration but with more strength and
energy.
You have to grab with both hand one of the upper or lower extremities and start applying a firm strong (not
harmful) shake with a fast waving movement.
Example:Imagine you are seating traveling in an old train and position yourself how would you body
vibrate and jump and shake with energy.
That would be the kind of shake you should have to apply to the other person's body part. It is stronger than
a vibration and produces shaking movements in the extremity while during the vibration the extremity remains still.
Finally the last one
Sucution:
This is a movement you produce in upper and lower extremities similar to trepidation but with long slow
waving movements, like a whiplash but slower while making the extremity to fluctuate.
Example Imagine yourself having a whip in your hands and waving it slowly while making wider whips
each time.
These are very good techniques to psychologically release the negative energies from the subject as well as
to activate proprioception in the joints and stimulate relaxation in the muscles at the same time.
It is always good to keep in mind these factors while performing these maneuvers:
- The age of the person and stiffness of the joints.
- Never force the joints or muscles.
- Always follow a good rhythm.
Remember:
First, do no harm!
