beinmobilisering

Beinmobilisering is a term used in some Nordic healthcare contexts to describe manual therapy techniques aimed at improving mobility of the musculoskeletal system by addressing restrictions in bones, joints and surrounding structures. The practice is typically performed by licensed physiotherapists, osteopaths or other trained manual therapists and may be used within broader rehabilitation programs.

The procedures commonly involve passive mobilization of joints, gentle oscillatory movements, and controlled traction or mobilizing maneuvers within safe, patient-friendly ranges. The focus is on reducing stiffness, improving range of motion, and facilitating normal biomechanics, often in conjunction with rehabilitation exercises, soft tissue work, and functional training. The approach prioritizes patient safety, pain-free movement, and individualized treatment planning.

Indications for beinmobilisering can include post-immobilization stiffness after fractures or surgeries, arthritic joint stiffness, soft tissue restrictions adjacent to joints, and certain post-traumatic conditions. It may be used as part of a comprehensive rehabilitation plan after injury or chronic musculoskeletal complaints. Contraindications include acute fractures, suspected or confirmed bone infections or tumors, severe osteoporosis with fracture risk, acute vascular or nerve compromise, and inflammatory or infectious conditions affecting the joint or bone.

Evidence for beinmobilisering varies by technique and condition; some forms are supported as part of multidimensional rehabilitation for improving range of motion and function, while others have limited high-quality data. Practitioners generally emphasize careful assessment, clear communication of goals, and integration with strengthening and functional training.
