Q

Functional Mobilization Treatment Strategies

A
  1. Identify mechanical articular/soft tissue hypomobility
    a. Trace and isolate to greatest restriction
    b. Localize restricted barrier to depth, angle, direction
  2. Dynamic localization of restriction
    a. Spinal- flexion, extension, then diagonal directions
    b. Extremity localize in diagonal
    c. Limiting folding or lengthening
  3. Treatment hand applies a localizing sustained pressure to identified restrictions
    a. Sustained pressure with gradual increase with release following path of release
    b. Not resolving with 10 sec. alter technique (unlocking spiral or direct oscillations)
  4. Mobilization of restriction
    -superimpose specific sustained contraction “don’t treat through dirty lever”
  5. Directions of sustained contraction - direct vs indirect. Can use either for tissues lacking lengthening
    A. Direct - Resistance in direction of restriction.
    - Use for: articulations do not fold
    B. Indirect -
  6. Progression to COI or Isotonic reversals
  7. Neuromuscular Reeducation
    8.Motor control - Prolonged holds through phasic shakes
    a. ROM improvement utilize COI to new ROM (phasic shakes)
    b. PNF for pain
    - Direct: directly to painful region
    - indirect: Use irradiation and antagonistic contractions
    c. Increase ROM improving neuromuscular control-COI
    d. Reeducation of dysfunctional components of Characteristics of Neuromuscular Control
    9.Training pt participation in treatment process
    a. Active relaxation
    b. Active movement
    c. Resisted Movement
    d. Communication/self-awareness- change in symptoms, discomfort guide treatment
  8. PNF to perform efficient posture and body mechanics (CFS) and development of HEP
