Q

non contractile component

A

CT sheath

23
Q

CT sheath

A

supports and binds muscle fibers

24
Q

what does the CT sheath provide

A

strength

allows muscle to withstand forces of contractions

25
Q

what does CT allow

A

entry and exit of nerves and blood vessels

26
Q

what does MFR involve

A

applying gentle, sustained, pressure into myofascial CT restrictions to eliminate pain and restore motion in body

27
Q

what is MFR also called

A

trigger point therapy

28
Q

myofascial trigger points (MTrP)

A

hyperirritable spot in skeletal muscle or fascia

29
Q

myofascial trigger points are

A

painful upon compression

30
Q

myofascial trigger points could

A

give rise to referred pain

motor dysfxn

autonomic sx

31
Q

2 types of MTrP

A

primary

secondary

32
Q

primary trigger point

A

cause pain locally at the pressure site

radiate sxs along a typical radiation pattern

found at muscle bellies

33
Q

secondary trigger points

A

painful point in a muscle

that becomes active when you stress another muscle

will return if you dont treat the primary trigger point

34
Q

tx of fascia

A

skin strokes

myofascial strokes

35
Q

types of skin strokes

A

skin glides

finger slides

boney contours

36
Q

myofascial strokes

A

strumming

perpendicular strokes

muscle play

37
Q

skin glide

A

skin movement as a whole

hands move skin as a whole

“round the clock”

38
Q

finger slide

A

assessment through the skin

fingers glide through the skin

“round the clock”

39
Q

boney contours

A

finger slide around boney structures

40
Q

what tells us if there is dysfxnal tissue

A

end feel

41
Q

perpendicular strokes

A

asses the fascia at the edges of the muscle

42
Q

strumming

A

with index fingers crossed

strum over the muscles to assess and attempt to eliminate increased resting muscle tension

43
Q

muscle play

A

ability of a muscle to be mobile and move separately from surrounding structures

44
Q

what should we always start with

A

assessment

45
Q

our assessment

A

locate restrictions

identify end feel

fine tune direction

used clock method

depth and direction

46
Q

what should we be sure of during massage

A

maintain a professional demeanor at all times

we have all necessary equipment prior to initiating tx

pt is positioned properly

47
Q

what should we be aware of during massage

A

pts comfort lvl, respect their desire for modesty

pts allergies

48
Q

what must we maintain during massage

A

professional demeanor at all times

49
Q

we should always

A

drape our pt

have clean, dry hands

fingernails be short

remove jewelry, watches, etc.

use proper body mechanics

50
Q

we should never

A

lose contact with our pt during massage

51
Q

draping

A

must be done so as to not overexpose pt

52
Q

we should only expose

A

area being treated

53
Q

when should we cover the exposed area

A

if we are leaving pt or the tx area

54
Q

draping is not

A

an option during pts tx
