Q

Concerns with efficacy of manual techniques include…

A
  • technique selection is typically made on ad hoc basis
  • strong placebo effect associated with laying on hands
  • many M/S conditions are self-limiting
  • difficulty of blinding clinicians and subjects
  • clear cut definitions as to when a test is superior to another
  • overreliance on MT techniques to improve patients status is a passive approach

16
Q

How does TFM aid in pain relief?

A

Stimulates type I and II mechanoreceptors which produce a presynaptic anesthesia (CAREFUL: too much during acute phase can trigger nociceptors instead, increasing pain)

17
Q

How does TFM aid in decreasing scar tissue?

A

Helps to orient the collagen in the appropriate lines of stress. It also helps produce hypertrophy of the new collagen (light TFM applied in subacute stage to protect granulation tissue)

18
Q

What is the rate and amplitude for TFM application?

A 
Rate = 2-3 cycles per second, applied in rhythmical manner
Amplitude = sufficient to cover all the affected tissue
19
Q

What are the three types of fascia?

A 
Superficial = just below the dermis
Deep = surrounds/infused with muscle, bone, nerve, blood vessels, organs
Deepest = dura of CNS/brain
20
Q

What are techniques used for MFR?

A

J-Stroke (to increase skin mobility)
Vertical Stroke (to open length of vertical fascia)
Transverse Stroke
Cross-Hands Technique (for deep fascia release)

21
Q

How is STM performed?

A

Superficial layers are treated prior to deep layers, and force is applied in the direction of maximum restriction

22
Q

What is STM useful for?

A

Reducing muscle spasms and promoting pain reduction

23
Q

How is sustained pressure performed?

A

Force applied to center, exact depth, direction and angle of maximal restriction. Apply clockwise/counterclockwise force while maintaing pressure.

24
Q

How does ischemic compression work?

A

Works by depriving trigger points of oxygen with a constant pressure for 8 - 12 seconds, rendering them inactive which breaks the pain-spasm cycle

25
Q

What is the basis of acupressure?

A

Based on shiatsu and acupuncture. A manual pressure over acupuncture points improves flow of body’s Qi.

26
Q

Teh Chi

A

Subjective feeling of fullness, numbness, tingling and warmth with some local soreness and a feeling of distension around acupuncture point

27
Q

What are METs a combination of?

A

Passive mobilizations, muscle reeducation and therapeutic exercise

28
Q

What are METs used to treat?

A

Joint mobilization, strengthening muscle and stretching muscle/fascia

29
Q

Strain-Counterstrain

A

Moving into direction of restriction and holding for 90-120 seconds

30
Q

Functional Techniques

A

Moving into the opposite direction of the restriction

31
Q

Craniosacral Therapy

A

Idea that misalignments, immobility, restrictions of cranial sutures and tension of intracranial meninges impact health of an individual

32
Q

Evidence-based indications for Joint Mobilizations

A
  • increased joint ROM
  • decrease pain
  • promote muscle relaxation
  • improve muscle performance
33
Q

Benefits of Joint Mobilizations

A
  • restore articular relationship
  • decrease pain
  • decrease muscle guarding
  • lengthen the tissue around a joint
  • N/M influences on muscle tone
  • increase proprioceptive awareness
34
Q

Kaltenborn Technique

A

3 grades of traction
Grade I = Piccolo (loose), no separation of surface
Grade II = Slack, separates surfaces
Grade III = Stretch, stretched joint capsule to increase mobility

35
Q

Maitland/Australian Techniques

A

5 grades of mobilization
Grade I = small amplitude technique beginning ROM
Grade II = large amplitude in middle ROM
Grade III = large amplitude end ROM
Grade IV = small amplitude end ROM
Grade V = movement exceeding resistance barrier (high-velocity thrust)

36
Q

High-Velocity Thrust Technique

A

Fast impulse of small amplitude force beyond end-feel, can be applied perpendicular or parallel

37
Q

Contraindications to Locking Techniques

A

Patient can’t relax, pediatric, PMH of: bone-weaking conditions, conditions creating hypomobility, condition involving joint fusion, condition involving chemo/radiation

38
Q

Contract-Relax

A

Bring into end ROM, isometric contraction of muscle being stretched for 2-5 seconds, relax, new ROM

39
Q

Agonist Contraction

A

Move limb into gentle stretch and ask patient to contract opposite muscle being stretched, hold 2-5 seconds, repeat 2-4 times
