FPR and Still Flashcards
In Still technique, It is common for the dysfunction to be corrected ________ meeting the barrier.
Before
FPR is best utilized for ________ somatic dysfunction, although Schiowitz claims it can also be used for abnormal ________.
Articular, muscle tension
Even when a somatic dysfunction in the cervical region is extended, the cervical lordosis still needs to be _______ in order to reach neutral when utilizing FPR.
Flexed
________ can also be used as an activating force in Still technique. Especially in the cervical spine.
Traction
The first step of Still technique is to put the joint into its ________.
Ease
“Release of somatic dysfunction with the use of a sustained low amplitude off-axis force vector as a 3D rotation lever” describes what technique?
Still
________ rediscovered Still’s techniques and revamped them.
Richard L. Van Buskirk
The second step of FPR is to apply an ________. This can be ________ or ________.
Activating force, compression (usually), traction (rarely)
________ was the PCOM alumnus who developed the facilitated positional release technique.
Stanley Schiowitz
The activation position in FPR is held for ________ and then a very quick oscillating movement is added (the true facilitation).
3-5 seconds
In Still technique, the vector of force applied must be directed through the ________.
Dysfunction
A few of the contraindications to FPR are ________, ________, ________, ________, ________, and ________.
Joint instability, herniated disc, intervertebral foraminal stenosis, severe sprains/strains, congenital anomalies, vertebrobasilar insufficiency
The second step of Still technique is to apply a ________ force at a right angle to the plane of restriction.
Compressive
The first step of FPR is to ________.
Flatten the curve (put into neutral)
The final step of Still technique consists of taking the joint through an ________ of motion to where the restriction barrier had been.
