Phase 1 Mobility Principle Flashcards
Mobitity Principle
Distribution of movement equals …
distribution of force
Coronal Plane (Frontal)
Divides body on Anterior (front) and Posterior (back)
Movements in Coronal Plate
Abduction and Adduction, also includes lateral movement
Median Plane (Sagittal)
Divides body on left and right sides
Movement in Median Plane
Flection and extension
Transverse Plane (Horizontal)
Divides body on top (Superior) and bottom (Inferior)
Movement in Transverse Plane
Right and left rotation or axial rotation. Or external and internal rotation for extremities. Or pronation and supination for arms and feet
To have Stability, you must first have
Mobility
To have Control, you must first have
Mobility
Improving segmental movement in the spine
decreases force of each segment and increases range of motion
Immobility is synonymous with
rigidity
