- Pass over one bicep.
- Move pt into rotation and sidebend RB
- Pt hold inhal and resist/return to neutral
Met, Low Thoracic, type 2, seated
Same as type 1 but pass over 2 arm + flex/extend
ART Lumbar SIde bend SD, seated
- Doc behind and beside pt who seated with arm cross
- Doc place arm over pt should with hand on opp shoulder
- Place thenar eminence at TP of dysfxn vert on ipsilateral side
- Induce sidebend force by press down with Axilla while induce lateral translation away from dr with thenar eminence
- Hold 1-2 sec
ART lumbar rotation SD, seated
- Doc stand behind and beside pt who seated with arm folded
- Doc place arm over pt shoulder with hand on opp shoulder
- Thenar em at TP of dysfxn vert on contralateral side.
- Induce rotation wile pressing ant with thenar em
ART Lumbar sidebend SD, Lateral Recumbent
- Stand at side of table in front of pt
- Flex pt knees and hips to 90 degree
- Doc place left had so fingers palp spinous process lumbar spine
- Place right Han and forearm under pt ankles and lift upward until left hand palpated induced left side bending.
- Hold stretch 1-2 sec, return neutral
ART lumbar type 2 flex SD, seated
- Doc stand beside pt
- Place arm over pt shoulder with hand on opp shoulder
- Stabilize segment inferior to dysfxn by grasping spinous process with fingers and thumb with finer and thumb/ or use thenar em over S.P.
- Extend by anterior translation of stabilizing hand, bend Thoracolumbar region around fulcrum.
ART LUmbar type 2 extension SD seated
- Doc beside pt
- Arm over pt shoulder with hand on opp shoulder
- Stabilize seg inferior to dysfxn segment by grasping spinous process with fingers and thumb. Or use thenar eminence
- Direct flexion force towards stabilizing hand, tapping in intervertebral joint space.
MET lumbar type 1 SD seated
- Pt seated with doc standing behind pt opposite PTP
- Pt place hand on ipsilateral side ofPTP at neck. Grab elbow
- Monitor at apex of curve with caudad hand, cephelad goes over one bicep
- Flex pt torso until motion is felt under monitoring hand.
- Engage rotiang and SB until motion is felt.
- Pt return to neutral/resist force.
MET lumbar type 2 SD seated
- Pt seated doc standing behind opposite the PTP
- Pt place hand at neck on same side as PTP, grab elbow
- Monitor at apex.
- Other hand pass over 2 bicep
