Q

How do you perform Psoas Release?

A

Pt supine, doc ipsi

Drop leg off table

  • apply superior pressure to ASIS to prevent anterior rotation
  • Provide pressure at knee to engage hip flexors

Hold for myofascial release, or muscle contractions 3x3 seconds

Q

How do you perform QL Lateral Recumbent?

A

Pt lays on side, affected side up

  • Forearms on iliac crest and shoulders
  • Fingers grasp QL and fascia

Lean forward to create separation on shoulders and hips, lengthen the QL.
-apply kneading component rhythmically

Q

Pelvic Visceral strain release

A

Pt supine, with one hand on lumbosacral junction and other on anterior lower abdomen

anterior hand provides focused transabdominal pressure to provide indirect MFR to the:

  • uterus
  • bladder
  • other

Q

What structures are supplied by the Celiac Ganglion?

A

T5-T9

Distal esophagus, stomach, proximal duodenum
Liver
Spleen
Gallbladder
Some panc
17
Q

What structures are supplied by the superior mesenteric ganglia?

A

T10-T11

Distal duodenum to Splenic flexure of T colon
Pancreas

18
Q

What structures are supplied by the inferior mesenteric ganglia?

A

T12-L2

Distal T Colon–>rectum
Kidneys
GU stuff

19
Q

Rib Raising Sympathetic inhibition

A

Pt supine, doc with hands underneath TPs

Gently press anterior bringing slight vertebral rotation
-maintain until muscles relax

20
Q

What does sacral rocking do?

A

Increases PSym tone

21
Q

what does sacral inhibition do?

A

Decreases PSym tone

22
Q

How do you do sacral inhibition?

A

Limit sacral motion by resisting respiratory motion with pressure

23
Q

Abdominal Diaphragm Combined Indirect and direct treatment

A

Pt supine

Doc grasp ribs across costal margin
-assess for activity/lack of it

Carry rib cage through all three planes until pull is gone

Have pt take 2-3 medium breaths, then move to direct position and have them take one deep breath

24
Q

How do you dome the pelvic diaphragm?

A

Press superiorly on the tip of the ischial tuberosity
-engage the pelvic floor

Have pt inhale and hold for 3-5s to activate stretch
-repeat 2-3x
