OCMM: Landmarks And Holds Flashcards
Indications for treatment
Contraindications
Postural flexion is OCCMM …
Extension
2 phases of cranial motion
Cranial flexion (inhalation), and cranial extension (exhalation)
Main driving force for PRM (primary respiratory mechanism) is …
Driven by sphenoid and occiput
Bones respond to cranial motion. Flexion -
Paired bones externally rotate, single bones move into flexion
Bones respond to cranial motion. Extension -
Paired bones internally rotate (relative to their axis of motion), single bones move into extension
Sphenoid bone axis of rotation
Occipital bone axis of rotation
Temporal bone axis of rotation
Frontal bone axis of rotation
Parietal bone axis of rotation
Sacrum cranial axis (respiratory) axis of rotation
