Direct vs Indirect Flashcards
Vertebral Segment
Single vertebrae
Vertebral Unit
2 adjacent vertebrae and their associated elements
Associated elements of vertebral unit
- Ligamentous
- Intervertebral disk
- Arthrodial
- Muscular
- Neural
- Vascular, including lymphatics
How do we name vertebral motion?
In relation to segment below and for movement of a point on the anterior/superior portion of the vertebral body
What does the posterior component refer to? Anterior?
Prominent transverse process; less prominent
Fryette 3rd Law of Motion
When one motion is introduced, it reduces the amount of the other motions
What are atypical vertebrae
Do NOT follow Fryette’s rules due to their anatomy
What is AT Still’s birthday? Where was he born?
August 6th, 1828 - Virginia
AT Still’s letters after his name. Where did he study medicine?
MD, DO - Kansas City School of Physicians and Surgeons
AT Still’s dad’s professions
Farmer, physician, and minister
What are the 3 atypical vertebrae?
- OA - occiput on atlas (C0 on C1)
- AA - atlas on axis (C1 on C2)
- Sacrum
What are all techniques based off of?
The Barrier Concept
What does The Barrier Concept describe? Contain?
Describes motion in a joint or in a tissue in ONE plane; contains neutral point along with barriers
What do we have in SD in relation to Barrier Concept?
Additional barriers and pathological neutral
Barrier defines what?
Limit of motion
What makes up normal joint motion and barriers to that motion?
- Balance point - O
- Physiological barrier - PB
- Anatomical barrier - AB
What is the balance point?
Midline between physiologic barriers
What can be altered by warm up?
PB
When does tissue disruption occur?
Beyond the AB
What is a Restrictive Barrier?
Change in ROM
