End-range Mobilization on Knee Osteoarthritis

Different manual therapy techniques and conservative therapy have been used separately for alleviation of pain and improvement of physical function in patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA). However, no study has reported the effect of combination of these treatment modalities in the management of KOA. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of end-range mobilization added to conservative therapy versus conservative therapy alone on decrease of pain and improvement of functional status in KOA.
