OPC Comprehensive Flashcards
What is the movement of the sacral base during inhalation
Sacral base moves posterior
ILA moves anterior
During treatment of sacrum with a torsion dysfunction, how do you know if treat with 1 leg vs. 2?
2 leg: is L on L or R on R
1 leg: is R on L or L on R
What is the sacral base doing during exhalation
Sacral base moves anterior
ILA moves posterior
In the sacrum, what is the purpose of testing the MTA
- MTA should match the seated flexion test
- Evaluating the heights
What does a pathologic dysfunction of the sacrum indicate about L5?
Pathologic dysfunction on sacrum = L5 Type II
What does a physiologic dysfunction of the sacrum indicate about L5
Physiologic dysfunction of the sacrum indicates there is a Type I dysfunction
What does nutation mean?
Sacral flexion
What does counter nutation mean?
Sacral extension

What is the difference between the physiologic vs anatomic barrier of motion?
Physiologic: max point to which a patient can actively move a joint
Anatomic: max point to which a patient’s joint can be move passively
What is the difference between restrictive and pathologic motion barrier?
- Restrictive: what is diagnosed for somatic dysfunction within physiologic ROM
- Pathologic: result of disease/trauma/surgery/arthritis etc.
