Summary

Pain in knee osteoarthritis (OA) represents increased pain intensity due to peripheral and central sensitivity. Pressure pain threshold (PPT) is a widely applied technique for measuring the magnitude of peripheral and central sensitivity in knee OA. Despite several manual therapy techniques has been proven to increase PPT in knee OA, the effect of end-range mobilization on the time curve of PPT has not been evaluated so far in knee OA. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of end-range mobilization on the time curve of PPT and some function-related measures in knee OA.
