Abstract

Joint mobilization (JM) refers to passive accessory movements aiming the recovery of the arthrokinematics and relief of musculoskeletal pain Previous data from the literature are unclear about the difference in effects of small and large amplitude degrees of JM in the peripheral joints about pain and locomotor activity and a possible relationship between these two factors. To investigate the behavioral effects in the production of analgesia induced by peripheral knee joint mobilization in a rat model of musculoskeletal pain, fifteen male Wistar rats were induced with joint inflammation through an injection (0.1 mL) of kaolin and carrageenan (3%) in the left knee.
