What is bursitis?
Inflammation of the Bursae from overuse of structures surrounding the Bursae.
What is a Rotator Cuff injury / Frozen shoulder?
Commonly characterized as stiffness, pain and decreased ROM.
Adhesions form on the inferior aspect of the joint capsule.
Women are affected more than men.
What is a Dislocation?
A dislocation is a complete dislocation of the Articular surface of the joint.
What is Tennis Elbow?
This is Lateral Epicondylitis.
What is Golfers Elbow?
This is Medial Epicondylitis.
What is RA?
An inflammatory destructive condition autoimmun disease that affects multiple joints and connective tissue throughout the body.
What is OA?
Chronic Degenerative Joint disease.
What is Gout?
…
What is Sprain / Strain?
A strain is an “Overstretched Musculotendinous unit”.
A Sprain is an “Overstretched injury to a Ligament”.
What is Tenosynavitis?
…
What is DDD?
…
What are the other types of bursal injuries?
Bakers Cyst & Bunion.
Bakers Cyst: A Synovial cyst that appears on the lateral aspect of the popliteal space. An enlargement of the extra-capsular space.
Bunion: Occurs at the first metatarsophalangeal joint capsule. Formed by excessive bone growth.
What are things that can cause Bursitis?
The causes can include:
Overuse of structures surrounding the bursae.
Muscle imbalance, poor biomechanics and postural dysfunction.
Sometimes acute trauma, infection & pathologies such as (OA) (RA) Gout.
What are CI’s for a client with Bursitis?
This can include:
No compression / Tissue dragging
No heat distally and on site
No pressure on and past site
Do not increase circulation past or on site
If the client has a infective bursitis Refer them out of the clinic
What does treatment for a client with Acute Bursitis consist of?
Gentle GSM proximal to the affected site.
MM squeezing distaly.
Painfree AF/AA/AF proximally (midrange)
Manuel Lymph Drainage.
What does treatment for a client with Chronic bursitis consist of?
Deep moist heat. Techniques that work towards the bursae after working proximally. Fascial. Comp structures. Frictions as Inflammation decreases.
What are the causes for Frozen shoulder?
It is Idiopathic but may be caused by: an increase in stress levels Trauma, ether sudden or repetitive Pathologies like (DDD, RA...) Altered biomechanics
