Integrative Approach of Conventional Physiotherapy, Mulligan's Mobilisation With Movement, and Plyometric Training in a Young Volleyball Athlete After Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) Reconstruction: A Case Report.

ABSTRACT

The requirements of volleyball include specialized, strategic, and acrobatic skills. In volleyball, it is thus essential to build maximal power and strength properly. Strengthening has been recommended as an effective means to avoid injuries and build muscle strength. It also enhances one's health in relation to performance in the game. Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears are a common knee injury affecting athletes of all levels. A big problem with injury healing and getting back to sports is that there isn't a tried-and-true protocol or set of steps an athlete should follow following an ACL injury. Plyometric training focuses on the core, hip, and thigh muscles to help with appropriate lower limb alignment and recruiting of muscle. We present a 25-year-old male volleyball athlete who suffered from an ACL tear. This case report emphasises how important sports physiotherapy rehabilitation is for athletes. The case report advances the treatment of ACL injury by a multifaceted approach of Mulligan's mobilisation with movement and plyometric-based interventions.
