Effect of single end-range and not end-range Maitland mobilization on pressure pain threshold and functional measures in knee osteoarthritis: randomised, controlled clinical trial.

Abstract

Hyperalgesia is attributed to peripheral and central sensitization in knee osteoarthritis (OA). Pressure pain threshold (PPT) is a relevant method for evaluating pain sensitivity in knee OA. The effect of end-range and not end-range Maitland mobilization for certain time-period on pain sensitivity has not been investigated in knee OA.
