20

(Sm,Pm,Mm)

A

*stress management
*pain management

21
Q

Mechanical forces (6 forms of loading)

A
  1. Tension loading
  2. Compression loading
  3. Bending loading
  4. Shear loading
  5. Rotation or torsion loading
  6. Combined loading
22
Q

5 Forces that act on the body
(Massage therapists use these same forces)

A
  1. Compression
  2. Tension
  3. Bending
  4. Shear
  5. Torsion
23
Q

Compression

A

*Common cause of tissue injury
*Muscle tissue does not resist injury from this force/ ligaments and tendons do.

24
Q

What is compression used to do?

A

*support circulation
*stimulate nerve function
*restore connective tissue pliability
(Used to SSR; USSR)

25
Q

Tension

A

*Bone resists tensile forces/seldom injured
*ligament sprains are the most common tensile force injury
*3rd degree is most severe and normally torn

26
Q

Bending

A

*one side compressed/ one side tension (compressive vs. tensile force exposure on opposite sides)
*common cause of bone fractures & ligament injuries
*affect connective tissues
*won’t harm soft tissues

27
Q

Shear

A

*creates inflammatory irritation when excessive
*can lead to adhesion and fibrosis
*cross fiber friction creates inflammation to reverse fibrotic connective tissue changes

28
Q

Torsion

A

*twisting
*torsion stress to a joint causes serious injury
*kneading massage methods
*increased tissue pliability

29
Q

Cross fiber friction (tension)

A

Creates inflammation and reverses connective tissue fibrosis

30
Q

Common cause of bone fractures and ligament damage

A

Bending

31
Q

Two joint methods

A

Active
Passive

32
Q

Active movement method

A

Moved by active muscle contraction

33
Q

Passive joint movement method

A

Practitioner moves the joint so the muscle stays relaxed

34
Q

Stretching
1.2.3.

A

*targets connective tissue
*introduces forces of bend, torsion and tension
* muscle energy methods increase client’s tolerance to stretch sensation

35
Q

Benefits and cautions of stretching

A

*Research results on efficacy of stretching are mixed
*Only integrate as part of intervention to address hypermobility
*only attempt an increase range of motion by 10%
*do not stretch beyond normal range of motion
