Q

Muscle spindles

A
Lie between extrafusal muscle fibres 
Sensitive to stretch 
Muscles fibres containing muscle spindles are intrafusal muscle fibres
Alpha and beta gamma nerves
Ia,1b and II afferent/sensory 
Less = more precise movements

Q

Propioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF)

A

CR
Contract muscles in position of stretch
Relax and stretch further
Repeat starting from position of greater stretch

CRAC
Contract of muscles in position of stretch
Relax and stretch further while contracting against antagonist
Repeat starting from position of greater stretch

17
Q

PNF stretching explained

A
  1. Autogenic inhibition occurs when the GTOs send inhibitory facilitation because the muscle either contracts or stretches
  2. Reciprocal inhibition one muscle contracts, the other relaxes.
  3. viscoelastic properties succumb to creep.
  4. The gate- control theory of pain. Pain sensitivity decreases over time
18
Q

Benefits of stretching

A
  • Flexibilty
  • ROM
  • Relexation
  • May prevent injury risk but can decrease other physical attributes - data conflicting
19
Q

Other techniques ROM and flexibility

A
  • Massage
  • Heat
  • Foam rolling
  • tennis balls
  • manipulations
20
Q

Measuring Flexibility and ROM

A
Tape measure 
Geniometers
Electrogoniometers
Bio mechanical analyses 
Sit and reach bench
21
Q

Hold stretch for atleast 15

-45 seconds

A

The groups holding stretches for 15 seconds demonstrated increased flexibility during AROM compared to 5 second group

May need to hold up to 20 mins for contractions
