Where is the fulcrum, effort and loAd in a 2nd class lever?
The load is between the fulcrum and effort (wheel barrow)
This type of lever the fulcrum is btw the effort and load
1st class (think scissors)
Body example->atlanto-occipital joint
What type of lever produces the most force ?
2nd class
What is the most common lever in the body ?
3rd class lever
This type if lever has the effort in between the fulcrum and loAd
3rd class lever
Lever with the greatest speed
3rd class lever
What grade of joint distractions are used to stretch the joint capsule ?
Grade III distractions or glides are used to stretch
the joint structures and thus increase joint play.
Describe the grades ossilation techniques
Grade I: Small-amplitude rhythmic oscillations are performed at the beginning of the range.
Grade II: Large-amplitude rhythmic oscillations are performed within the range, not reaching the limit.
Grade III: Large-amplitude rhythmic oscillations are performed up to the limit of the available motion and are stressed into the tissue resistance.
Grade IV: Small-amplitude rhythmic oscillations are performed at the limit of the available motion and stressed into the tissue resistance.
Grade V: A small-amplitude, high-velocity thrust tech- nique is performed to snap adhesions at the limit of
the available motion. Thrust techniques used for this purpose require advanced training and are beyond
the scope of this book.
What grade has of joint play has Large-amplitude rhythmic oscillations are performed up to the limit of the available motion and are stressed into the tissue resistance.
Grade III
Grade of oscillations involving Large-amplitude rhythmic oscillations are performed within the range, not reaching the limit.
Grade II
