• 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.

Q

Supine BLT Upper Thoracics

A
  • 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
Q

Seated BLT Lower Thoracics

A
  • 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
Q

Prone BLT Thoracic/Lumbar

A
  • 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
