(1) Year 1 Curricular Review Flashcards
State whether the technique is DIRECT or INDIRECT
What are the two techniques that are BOTH direct and indirect?
MFR
STILLS
What are the techniques that are ONLY DIRECT?
Soft Tissue (ST)
Muscle Energy (ME)
What techniques are ONLY INDRECT?
BLT
FPR
Counterstrain
What is the ONLY active “activating force” technique?
Muscle Energy
The remaining activating forces for the other techniques are considered…
PASSIVE
Describe
Soft Tissue
Passive
Direct, repetitive
Direction of force:
Longitudinal/Perpendicular
OR
Inhibitory
Describe:
MFR
Passive
Direct OR Indirect, non-repetitive
Describe:
Articulation
Passive
Direct, Repetitive
Direction of force: INTO THE RESTRICTIVE BARRIER, then release, repeat until physiologic motion is restored
Describe
Muscle Energy
Active
Direct, repetitive
Activation 3-5 seconds, 3-5 times
Describe:
BLT
Passive
Indirect, non-repetitive
Place in position of ease. Activating force= breathing
Describe
FPR
FPR = FLATTEN
Passive
Indirect, non-repetitive
Flatten the curve, place in an INDIRECT position, ADD COMPRESSION for 5 seconds, release and return to neutral
Describe
Stills technique
Passive
Indirect to direct, non-repetitive
Place in indirect position, add compression or traction, move through restrictive barrier to physiologic barrier
Describe
Counterstrain
Passive
Indirect, non-repetitive
Find a significant TP, place pt in position of ease, hold for 90 seconds, SLOWLY return to neutral, recheck
Describe
HVLA
Passive
Direct, non-repetitive
Direct INTO the restrictive barrier, quick THRUST through restrictive barrier to the physiologic barrier
How do you diagnose OA?
OA= OPPOSITE
Flexion or extention
Sidebending and rotation to opposite directions
