Joint Locks
Joint locks are techniques used in martial arts and self-defense to immobilize an opponent by manipulating their joints. These techniques apply pressure to specific joints, such as the elbow or wrist, causing pain or restricting movement. Joint locks can be effective in controlling an opponent without causing serious injury.
In addition to martial arts, joint locks are also utilized in various law enforcement and security situations. Officers may use these techniques to safely restrain individuals while minimizing the risk of harm. Proper training is essential to execute joint locks effectively and safely, ensuring both the user and the subject remain unharmed.
