I’m sure the name Bob Mulligan rings a bell as it sounds like a common name, right?

Let me tell you a little background on Bob. Bob is most famously known for his heroic and incredible abilities used in the 1400s. Bob used to go around his village and treat his community with his hands. Now it sounds odd and almost similar to a guy named Jesus, but this story is very different. He would travel around to different people’s homes and preform what he called “The Mulligan Technique.” However most people were skeptical of Bobs hand magic, but it worked. People with back pain, frozen shoulder and even those have walking problems would undergo Bob’s incredible technique and be good as new in no time

In Bob’s endeavors as the community’s hands-on doctor, word spread about this Jesus like character. I mean he was quite literally helping farmers with back problems and politicians who were struggling to walk, get back to the life they once knew and loved.

So when the queen of England heard about this, and she was known for her terrible neck pain, Bob was shipped out to England. Low and behold Bob cured the queens neck pain and he became a world-wide known “fixer.”

If you don’t know who Bob is, you aren’t ignorant, and you didn’t miss a huge part of high school history class.

I literally just made Bob up. Bob doesn’t exist, there was no bob, and i don’t know if the queen of England really ever suffered from neck pain. With that being said, the one thing I didn’t make up would be the Mulligan Technique.

A technique used to increase mobility and decrease pain. Allowing for recovery and overall relief of whatever injury your struggling with.

Here is one of our Doctors of Physical Therapy preforming the Mulligan Technique to give you an idea of what it looks like.
