Answer 10

Inferior vertebra

Superior vertebra

Question 11

Answer 11

L5-S1

Question 12

Anterior glide using the facet joints passive ACCESSORY vertebral motion increases what ROM? What positional fault?

Answer 12

Rotation

Rotation

Question 13

Rotation glide passive PHYSIOLOGICAL vertebral motion increases what rom? Des what to the lumbar facet joints? May increase what ROM?

Answer 13

Rotation
Distracts lumbar facet joints
ForwArd/backward bending and side bending

Question 14

What Is the procedure for Rotation glide passive PHYSIOLOGICAL vertebral motion?

Answer 14

Hand on inferior vertebra - glides SP upward as forearm rotates pelvis forward and patient exhales
Hand on more superior vertebrae - simultaneously glides the SP down as forearm rotates upper trunk backward

Question 15

Side bending passive PHYSIOLOGICAL vertebral motion stabilizing hand? Mobilizing hand?

Answer 15

Lateral surface of superior spinous process

Medial surface distal leg, arm and trunk supporting patients lower leg

Question 16

Side bending passive PHYSIOLOGICAL vertebral motion mobilizing hand brings leg into what motion?

Answer 16

Abduction

Question 17

Side bending passive physiological vertebral motion increases what ROM?

Answer 17

Side bending
