Q

What type of manual therapy is this?

  • rolling is described as a self release technique
  • rolling-induced global effects on muscle tone from changes in the parasympathetic system, reflexes and pain tolerance may have
  • single episode of stretching and foam rolling does not affect short-term ITB stiffness
A

Q

What type of manual therapy is this?

  • Upward Stroke: sustained pressure
  • Return Stroke: maintain light pressure
  • Smooth, rhythmical & relaxed application
  • builds towards deeper pressure
  • follow natural body contours
  • decrease pressure over bony prominences
A

Q

What type of manual therapy is this?

  • kneading manipulations
  • stationary or start proximally & move distally
  • deeper pressure
  • Upwards Stroke: towards the heart
  • Shorter strokes than effleurage
  • Static contact with skin while moving over the muscle
  • moving proximal to distal
  • more pressure than effleurage
  • pressure & release helps “pump” out the blood
A

Q

What type of manual therapy is this?

  • Indication: Hypersensitive bundel/nodule
  • Goal: increase ROM
A

Trigger Point Therapy

  • Trigger Point release: pressure as tolerate 1-5 min
  • Strain/Counterstrain: Pressure on TP, passively shorten muscle, 90 sec
  • Active Release: Maintain pressure AROM of muscle, 3-5x
