Biomechanical Structure Respiratory-Circulatory Metabolic-Nutrional Neurological Behavioral-Biopsychosocial
Physiological Barrier
the barrier that the patient can actively move to
Anatomic Barrier
the barrier that the physician can take the pt to
Gross Motion about the Saggital Plane? Pivot?
Flexion/Extension Pivot: horizontal plane
Gross Motion about Horizontal Plane (Transverse)? Pivot?
rotation, vertical axis
Gross Motion about the Coronal Plane? Pivot?
sidebending, AP axis
Signs of Acute Tart Changes? Temp? Skin Texture/Moisture? Tension? Tenderness? Edema? Erythema Test?
Increased Temp Increased Moisture Cardboard hard Sharp Pain Increased Edema Increased Redness
Signs of Chronic Tart Changes? Temp? Skin Moisture/Text? Tension? Tenderness? Edema? Erythema Test?
possible decrease in temp decreased moisture, dry string-like dull achy no edema, blanching no redness
4 Purposes of Fascia
Protection, Packaging, Passageways, Posture
Fryette’s 1st Principle
spinal in neutral position rotation and sidebending will be in opposite directions
Fryette’s 2nd Principle
spine in nonneutral position rotation and sidebending will be in same direction
Fryette’s 3rd Principle
motion in one plane will affect motion in another
Facet Orientation
Cervical: BUM Thoracic: BUL Lumbar: BM back, up, lateral, medial
Muscle Energy Acts on…
Golgi tendon Organ, causing inhibition of the muscle and therefore, muscle relaxation
Counterstrain works by…
stretching the muscle spindle during contraction causing the relaxing of the muscle
Who invented muscle energy?
Fred Mitchell DO
Counterstrain involves…
myofascial tenderpoints and spontaneous tissue release
