OT Mod 5 Questions

Question 1

If a practitioner is ‘too busy’ during treatment, how might this place a patient at risk?

Answer 1

The patient is less likely to take on the treatment and therefore it is less effective

Question 2

How was the deepest layer of lesioning reached in this example?

Answer 2

The liver was the deepest layer of lesioning and was treated through the superior thoracic aperture

Question 3

From a somatic perspective, explain how organic lesioning within the foregut could influence the mechanics of the Upper T-line. Which tissues would be involved?

Answer 3

A lumbar concavity can change the length and tautness of the psoas major, which can cause rotation in the thoracic spine thus resulting in impaired bowel functions
