About the Author
Brian Mulligan, FNZSP (Hon), Dip. MT, ONZM
Brian Mulligan originated and developed the concept of combining accessory mobilizations with physiological movements in the extremities (MWMS). In the spine, he promotes the use of natural apophyseal glides (NAGS) and sustained natural apophyseal glides (SNAGS). He received the prestigious International Service to The Profession Award from the WCPT and has been an international lecturer in manual therapy since 1972.

A note from author Brian Mulligan
This book was written with one purpose in mind and that was to acquaint the reader with my concepts. The contents could have included some details of pertinent anatomy and biomechanics, but this background material is well known to physiotherapists and there are ever so many texts available. My most valuable self-learning and teaching tools have been my articulated plastic spine and the articulated bones of the upper and lower extremities. These being flexible and accurate in detail, makes it simple for me to show and explain the patients what I propose to do. This is especially true for NAGs, SNAGs and MWMs. What our concepts have to offer in the musculoskeletal field are unique and when mastered invaluable. I want them to be available to all patients needing manual therapy, as when indicated and used, both the patient and the therapist are happy.
