A

Lines and surrounds the lungs

23
Q

Peritoneum

A

Lines the abdominopelvic cavity and its organs

24

27
Q

Spinal curves

A

Primary and secondary

total of 4 curves

28
Q

Primary curves

Thoracic and sacral

Present at birth as a single curve from head to sacrum

Fetal position curve

29
Q

Secondary curves

A

Posteriorly concave
Anterior convex

Cervical and lumbar

Abnormal curves

A

The abnormal curves can be

Congenital
Idiopathic

Or related to:
Incorrect posture
Trauma
Disease

35
Q

all three curves can effect

A

Breathing, posture, other vital functions

36
Q

Treatment

A

Degree of curvature determines course of treatment

37
Q

Treatment

massage

A

Postural bodywork can be very effective treatment

Such as structural integration
