INDIRECT TECHNIQUE THERAPUTIC MECHANISMS Flashcards
IN TERMS OF THE BARRIER CONCEPT WHAT IS HAPPENIGN WHEN WE MOVE A TISSUE INTO EASE
moving it closer to the neutral zone
what are the three proposed theraputic mechanisms for indirect techniques
nociceptor model
neurological model
fibroblast response
explain the nociceptor model
as ascending nociception plays a part is pain perception
moving tissues into ease decreases nociceptive input
essentially reducing any increased sympathetic and motor tone
explain the fibroblast response
moving tissues into a position of ease reduces the fibroblast inflammatory response to tissue stress
ultimately decreasing inflammation and pain
explain the neurological model
moving the tissues into a position of ease decreased afferent aberrant muscle spindle input
essentially reducing any increased sympathetic and motor tone
