by Harrison Vaughan, PT, DPT, Cert. SMT - April 4, 2011   Bookmark and Share

This is a continuation of a past post linked  here  on proximal tibio-fibular joint (PTFJ) showing one technique that I use.  Sorry about the foot not being shown in the video but it was the tibia was in slight external rotation. Enjoy.

As always, will enjoy your feedback, comments and ideas for manual treatment of this joint.
