7 Vocab-scientific Rationale

Question 0

Davis law

Answer 0

States that soft tissue models along the lines of stress
With adhesions, sift tissue is remodeled with I elastic collagen matrix and doesn’t run in same direction as muscle fibers, act as road blocks, preventing muscle fibers from moving properly. Creates alterations in normal tissue extensibility, also causes relative flexibility

Question 1

Pattern overload

Answer 1

Consistently repeating the same pattern of motion, which may place abnormal stresses on the body

Question 2

Rationale/benefits

Answer 2

Correcting muscle imbalances
Increasing joint range of motion
Decreasing the excessive tension of muscles
Relieving joint stress
Improving extensibility of the musculotendinous junction
Maintaining normal functional length of all muscles
Improving neuromuscular efficiency
Improving function

Question 3

Cumulative injury cycle

Answer 3

Repair process
-dysfunction in tissue
Registered by body as injury
Body initiates repair

Question 4

Adhesions/knots

Answer 4

Due to heightened activity of muscle spindles results in micro spasm, in turn creating adhesions
Left untreated can form permanent structural changes in soft tissue(Davis law)
