Alternate directions following respiration. • **Inhalation = sacral apex anterior • Exhalation = sacral base anterior**
53
**Pedal Pump**
Position: pt supine, doc at foot of table • Contact **plantar portion of feet, dorsiflex the feet** • Apply an **on-and-off rhythmic cephalad force to hyperdorsiflex the feet**, watching nose for movement and feeling rebound wave at feet. Rate should be **~100-120x/min.**
54
4. Mobilize Targeted Tissue Fields
55
**Tapotement (Lungs)**
Position: pt prone, doc at pt’s side • Apply rhythmic forces to the thoracic region – **Hacking** = **“karate chop” with ulnar side of hands** – **Cupping/Clopping** = **cup hands into a slight “C” shape** – **Slapping** = use **palmar surface of hands**
56
**Effleurage and Petrissage** **&** **IT Band Effleurage**
Position: pt supine, doc on side to treat • Raise pt’s arm or leg to treat • **Effleurage**: induce **stroking force distally to proximally** • **Petrissage**: induce a **kneading/twisting force distally to proximally** • Position: pt lateral recumbent w/ affected side up, top foot in popliteal fossa of bottom leg. Doc on side to treat. • Place **cephalad hand on pt’s greater trochanter for stabilization**. • With the caudad hand, make a “C” shape and contact pt’s IT band. **Start halfway between the greater trochanter and knee, stroking distal to proximal with gentle pressure**. • After some congestion frees, start just superior to the knee and continue stroking in a distal to proximal fashion.
57
**Anterior Tracheal/Deep Cervical Arches Release**

**Supine BLT Upper Thoracics**
* Position: Patient supine & Physician at head of table * Hand Placement: * With hand ipsilateral to PTP, place the index finger on the TP of the dysfunctional segment. With hand contralateral to PTP, support the patients head * Technique: * Move patient into flexion (to move T2 into neutral) with rotation and sidebending to the EASE of motion (indirect) until reaching the point of balanced ligamentous tension * Assess respiratory phases, have patient hold breath in inhalation or exhalation based on the position that best achieves ligamentous balance * Minor adjustments to flexion, rotation and sidebending may be needed to maintain ligamentous balance; repeat until best motion is obtained * Reassess
65
**Seated BLT Lower Thoracics**
* Position: Patient seated and physician behind patient * Hand Placement * Use **thumb ipsilateral to PTP to contact the TP of the inferior vertebra** in the vertebral unit * Use **thumb contralateral to PTP to contact the TP of the superior vertebra in the vertebral unit** * Technique * Instruct **patient to lean back at the hips** then sit up straighter or slouch forward to localize the sagittal plane at the dysfunctional unit * Instruct patient to **“lean a little towards” the ease of sidebending motion and “turn a little towards: the ease of rotation motion** in small increments to achieve balanced ligamentous tension * Assess respiratory phases, have patient hold breath in inhalation or exhalation based on the position that best achieves ligamentous balance * Minor adjustments to flexion, rotation and sidebending may be needed to maintain ligamentous balance; repeat until best motion is obtained * Reassess
66
**Prone BLT Thoracic/Lumbar**
* The patient lies prone, physician stands beside the table. * The physician places the left thumb over the left transverse process of affected segment and the index and third finger pads of the left hand over the right transverse process of affected segment * The physician places the right thumb over the left transverse process of * segment inferior and the index and third finger pads over the right transverse process of same segment * The patient inhales and exhales, and physician encourages patient to hold the more relaxing of the two and follows the motion of these two segments. * The physician adds a compression/separation force (long arrows) approximating/separating the segments and then directs a force downward (short arrows) toward the table to vector it to the extension barrier. * Next, the physician's thumbs approximate the left transverse processes, which produces side bending left (horizontal arrows) while simultaneously rotating superior segment to the left (left index finger arrow) and inferior segment to the right (right thumb, downward arrow). * When this total balanced position is achieved, the physician holds the position until air hunger. Repeat as needed (usually 3 times). * Reassess for 2-4 TART findings
