Q

sympathetic and parasympathetic stimulation of the liver?

A

Sympathetic stimulation promotes breakdown of glycogen to glucose to provide
increased energy.

Increased parasympathetic tone decreases degradation of
glycogen and results in decreased energy supply.

26
Q

What are the palpable characteristics of chapmans points

A

Chapman’s reflexes are gangliform (rounded) contractions in deep fascia that
can block lymphatic drainage and cause inflammation. They are thought to
be associated with sympathetic dysfunctions and are found in regions with
overlapping visceral sympathetic innervation. Anterior points do not
radiate.

Posterior reflexes generally have a more edematous feel with a
stringy quality noted deeper than in the anterior reflex. more for treatment!

Anterior reflexes have more of a feeling of contraction . more tender. more for diagnosis and efficacy of treatment

27
Q

specify the determining factor for dosing the treatment of a chapman’s reflex point

A

Determining factor for dosage is whether there is a decrease in edema,
dissolution of the contracture, and resolution of tenderness at the anterior
reflex locus

Treat any somatic dysfunctions found
Hyperemesis gravidarum
Treat areas C2 and T5-9
Related Chapman’s reflexes

12-28

Monthly visits
Evaluate for somatic dysfunction

May produce strain in cervical spine

carpel tunnel

Increased pressure on the venous and lymphatic return flow from the LE’s and inferior vena cava
Increase in interstitial fluids
Increase in uterus size
Produces a “ball-valve” effect on the veins of the lower extremities = edema
Some may get HYPOTENSIVE when supine (vena caval compression/supine compression syndrome)
Size impedes diaphragmatic and rib excursion
