Overall Instability and SI joint Flashcards

1
Q

Excessive movements of the spine that are within the active subsystem (muscular) control. For example, a gymnast has increased mobility but also has the strength and coordination to control the mobility. There are no aberrant movements present

A

hypermobility

Q

sxs or components that provide stability to the spine

A
  1. Passive subsystem – the spinal column and its ligamentous support
  2. Active subsystem – the muscles and the fascial systems
  3. Control subsystem – neural system of balance, coordination, timing, firing
