Vertebral Unit Components
Superior Facet Orientation
Two adjacent vertebrae + Associated IV Disc
Cervical (BUM) - Backwards, Upwards, Medial

Lumbar (BM) - Backwards, Medial
Type One Mechanics (TS/LS Only)
Neutral
Group
Rotation and Sidebending are Opposite
Type 2 Mechanics (TS/LS Only)
Non-Neutral (Flexed or Extended)
Single Segment
Rotation and Sidebending in Same Direction
Motion Testing (T1-L5)
Finger Pads at T1-3: Assess Flexion/Extension, Rotation, Sidebending
Finger Pads at T4-6: Assess Flexion/Extension, Rotation, Sidebending
T7-12: Assess Flexion/Extension, Rotation, Sidebending with hand on posterior shoulder to use trunk as lever
L1-5: Assess Flexion/Extension, Rotation, Sidebending with hand wrapped around front to opposite shoulder to use as a lever
Assess Motion in Dynamic Position (Lumbar - Sphinx/Downward Dog Positions & Thoracic - Sphinx Position and Flex/Ext the Head/Neck to determine Flex (Resistance to approximation) SD or Ext (Resistance to separation) SD)
