1
Q

What are the functions of bones?

A

Support for soft tissues, protection of internal organs, movement, mineral reserve (calcium and phosphorus), formation of blood cells (red bone marrow), energy reserve (yellow bone marrow is rich in fat cells).

Q

REgion between the diaphysis and epiphyses of long bones (in the adult bone). In a bone still gorwing, this area is called epiphyseal plates (growth plates).

Q

round or oval opening through a bone

A

17
Q

Bump or rough spot on a bone, generally anchoring site for tendons and ligaments

A

Process

18
Q

description: Inflammation of the membrane of connective tissue surrounding the diaphysis of long bones. Caused by repetitive compression and traction of muscles on the periosteum. (on tibia). symptoms: extreme pain to the touch and movement

A

Periostitis (periostitis tibial/shin splints).

19
Q

Massage procedure in case of periostitis

A

apply techniques in the proximal affected area in the acute phase. The main objective is to decongest and relax the tissues, promote drainage of inflammatory tissue to help reduce the perception of pain. In post acute or chronic phase, techniques are performed proximally then locally and eventually distally.

20
Q

Description: Exaggeration of the curvature of the spine at the thoracic level. Symptoms: Tension and muscles pain in the rhomboid and pectoral regions. Can be congenital or postural.

A

Hyperkyphosis

21
Q

Massage technique for hyperkyphosis

A

This represents a conditional counter-indication to massage. Massage the pectorals and mobilize shoulder joints to increase flexibility.
