MWM facilitates the anterior glide of the tibia over a fixed talus during ankle dorsiflexion exercises in a weight-bearing position, improving dorsiflexion ROM, and enabling proper functional activity. MWM can also be administered in combination with a manual force applied by a therapist to stabilize the talus during active motion, permitting active ankle dorsiflexion in a weight- bearing position. However, as MWM for ankle dorsi- flexion requires the presence of a trained therapist to stabilize the anterior talus,9 MWM is practically challenging for an individual to perform independently. To account for this technical difficulty, Mulligan was the first to pro- pose self-MWM (S-MWM) by using a strap to enable unrestricted movement without producing pain at additional joints in the body. Furthermore, ankle mobilization with a strap can provide for the posterior glide of the talus during closed chain DF movements.
