3?
4?
5.?
- small amplitude movement at the begining of available ROM
- large amplitude movement within the ROM
- large amplitude moevement that reaches the end of ROM

The Talocrural joint:
Concave surface 1?
Convex surface 2?
Closed pack position 3?
Resting position 4?
Capsular pattern 5?

- Tib-fib talar dome
- Talus
- Maximum dorsiflexion
- 10 plantarflexion
- Plantarflexion>dorsiflexion
Ankle (TCJ) joint mobilisation
Technique:
Talocrural joint:
1? - which grades
2?- which movements?
- Passive physiological (PROM)- grade 2, 3 and 4
- Passive assecory movements (PAM):
Disractions, AP on talus to increase dorsiflexion, PA on talus for plantarflexion
Inferior tibiofibular joint
1? to increase dorsiflexion
2? to increase plantarflexion
- AP on fibula
- PA on fibula
What are the outcome measures for Ankle (TCJ) mobilisation?
- ?
- ?
- ?
- ?
- VAS score
- Goniometer
- Quality or quantity of functional movement
- Knee to wall
What is the DISRACTION technique for TCJ?
Prone:
1?
Both hands cup the 2?
Simultaneous lift of the 3?
4?
- Therapist knee rest on pt’s thigh and stabalise the proximal end of the ankle joint
- Talus and calcanues
- Talus and calcanues in caucad direction (diraction)
- Sustained hold for 1-3 sec

Ankle mobilisation (disraction)
TCJ
Supine:
Place the hand 1?
2?
- As supine, hand placements differ around talus and calc
- Weight of the pt’s leg stabalise the proxiaml end of TCJ

Join mobalisation to improve DORSIFLEXION
hand placement:
Distal hand 1?
Proximal hand 2?
- Proximal hand stabalizes the ankle mortise at tib-fib joint
- Distal hand cups the heel, forearm levers the foot into dorsiflexion

How to do you do joint immobalisation to improve plantarflexion:
Pt position?
Proximal Hand position?
Distal Hans position?
What type of moevements?
Pt position: Pt prone and knee flexed to 90 degrees
Proximal hand: holds the calcaneus posteriorly
Distal Hand: holds the talus anteriorly and plantarflexes the foot
Oscillatory movements, Small/Large movements depending on grade applied II, III, IV

What’s the passive accessory technique for PA talocrucal joint?
- Pt’s position?
- Hand position for the proximal segment?
- Hand position for the distal segment?
- Pt in prone with knee flexed 90 degrees
- Proximal segment glides PA (Posterior to Anterior) which causes tib-fib to glide anterior relative to the talus
- Distal-Hand lift the foot into plantarflexion, which allows talus to glide in PA direction

What’s the joint immobalisation technique to improve inversion:
- Pt’s position?
- Hand placement
- STJ inversion motion created by?
- Pt in prone with knee flexed to 90 degrees, therapist knee on the bed to support the shin
- The thumb and fingers of one hand hold the calcaneus & talus over the subtalar joint and the other hand grasps the midfoot
- STJ Inversion motion created by rolling fingers proximally Oscillatory mvts small/large depending on Grd applied II,III, IV

The other passive accesory technique to improve inversion of subtalar joint:
Proximal hand position 1?
Distal hand position 2?
- Proximal hand stabalise and blocks talus
- Distal hand glides calcaneus medially
