Answer 5

Chest and abdomen

Question 6

Grade 1 mobilizations

Answer 6

Small amplitudes

Beginning of end range

Procedure for muscle energy technique

Answer 7

Joint is positioned in inter barrier zone

Gentle isometric contraction followed by full relaxation

Question 8

For injuries, when should compression, elevation, and cryotherapy be performed (time-wise)

Answer 8

48-72 hours following injury

Question 9

Grade 4 mobilizations

Answer 9

Small amplitude

Into tissue resistance

Question 10

Fryett’s Law 3

Answer 10

If motion is introduced into a segment in any plane, motion in the other planes are reduced

Question 11

Before manipulating the cervical spine, what should always be performed

Answer 11
