Question 1

Fascia is

Fascia is not?

Answer 1

IS- complete system w/ blood supply, fluid draining and innervation

tissue protection and healing of surrounding systems

NOT:

tendons

ligaments

aponeuroses

Question 2

Fascia is what for the body

Answer 2

diety

• omnipresent
  
  • everywhere
• omnipotent
  
  • mobility and stability of the MSK system
  • contractile /healing
• omniscient

Question 3

Fascial layers

Answer 3

• Pannicular fascia
  
  • outermost. surrounds body w/ exception orifices
• axial/appendicular
  
  • surround muscle bones tendons
• meningeal
  
  • surrounds NS, dura
• visceral
  
  • surrounds body cavities

Question 4

stress vs strain

Answer 4

Stress= force that attempts to deform a connective tissue structure

Strain= Percentage of deformation of a connective tissue

Question 5

hysteresis

Answer 5

difference between loading and unloading characteristics represents energy that is lost in the connective tissue system.

Question 6

creep

Answer 6

Connective tissue under a sustained constant load will elongate in response to load

Question 7

Ease

Answer 7

direction connective tissue may be moved most easily

(looseness or laxity)

Question 8

Fascial sweater

Answer 8

restrictions in one area will create restrictions in an area a distance away

Question 9

Hooke’s law

Answer 9

Strain placed on an elastic body is in proportion to stress put on it

Question 10

Wolff’s law

Answer 10

bone will develop according to the under stresses placed upon it

(Fascia too)

Question 11

direct vs indirect techniques?

Answer 11

D-Go towards and through restrictive barrier

I- go away from restrictive barrier

Question 12

Sherrington’s law

Answer 12

WHen a muscle receives a nerve impulse to contract its antagonists receive an impulse to relax

Question 13

Compensatory patterns

Answer 13

uncompensated pattern usually symptomatic/ trauma involved

Question 14

Answer 16

Question 17

Absolute contraindications

Answer 17

Question 18

Principles of ST tech

Answer 18

• patient comfort
• physician comfort
• gentle and low amplitude rhythmically
• increase the amplitude
• forces comfortable for patient
• no friction/sliding
• until desired effect

Question 19

stretch vs knead vs inhibition

Answer 19

S- increase distance origin/insertion

K- pushing of tissue perpendicular to fibers

I- push and hold perp to fibbers until relax

Question 20

MFR vs INR

Answer 20

INR- breath hold

moving of body

contractions

Question 21

Answer 21

Question 22

Does MFR use activating forces?

Answer 22

yes
