stiffness

Answer 24

reduced ROM of a joint or group of joints

coupled motion

Answer 27

consistent association of a motion along or about one axis with another motion about or along a second axis

Question 28

What does the coupled motion of the spine serve to protect?

Answer 28

spinal cord

Question 29

linkage

Answer 29

relationship of joint mechanics with surrounding structures to get increased ROM
