chapter 1 - Lesson 2 Flashcards
Corrective exercise
The systematic process of identifying a neuromusculoskeletal dysfunction, developing a plan of action, and implementing an integrated corrective strategy.
Corrective Exercise Continuum
The systematic programming process used to address neuromusculoskeletal dysfunction using inhibitory, lengthening, activation, and integration techniques.
inhibitory techniques.
Corrective exercise techniques used to reduce tension or decrease activity of overactive neuromyofascial tissues in the body.
lengthening techniques.
Corrective exercise techniques used to increase the extensibility, length, and range of motion of neuromyofascial tissues in the body.
activation techniques
Corrective exercise techniques used to reeducate or increase activation of underactive muscle tissues.
integration techniques
Corrective exercise techniques used to retrain the collective synergistic function of all muscles through functionally progressive movements.
Regional Interdependence (RI) model
Assessment and intervention model used by clinicians based on the concept that the site of a patient’s primary complaint or symptoms is affected by dysfunction in remote musculoskeletal regions.
