Session 4 Flashcards
Extremity, muscle and ligament techniques
If a muscle is strong in the clear, but weakens after it is maximally contracted for three seconds. Look for a ______ in the _________ of the muscle.
Tender point
Belly
If a muscle weakens after stretching, what may need to be applied to it
Fascial release
What other treatment is best applied after fascial release in muscle stretch reaction treatment
Neurolymphatic reflexes
Neurovascular reflexes
Vitamin B12
Treatment for cutaneous receptor dysfunction is
Stretch the skin and add as quick a vibration as possible with the fingers for 20-30sec
Or apply 300Hz vibration
Supplement with vitamin B complex
If gently pinching a muscle weakens an indicator muscle, __________ the muscle about _________ per second _________ times
Gently tap
Once
8-10
Treatment of a reactive muscle pair is usually applied to a dysfunctioning __________ in the ________ muscle
Neuromuscular spindle cell
Primary
“Muscle interlink” refers to reactive muscles in a ________ relationship
Gait
Treatment for ligament interlink is
Digital manipulation of the least painful ligament whilst simultaneously holding the hyoid bone towards that side
Spinal Interlink is like ligament interlink between
Vertebral lovett reactors
Ligament stretch reaction is from toxic levels of
The breakdown products of adrenalin
Diagnosis of ligament stretch reaction is
Stretch a ligament and immediately test a previously strong indicator muscle for weakening. Preferably a muscle directly associated with the same articulation as the ligament
A muscle is tested about once per second. It weakens after 5 tests. What nutrition may be indicated
Iron (aerobic)
In aerobic deficiency, what is required
Increase in aerobic activity, Decrease in anaerobic activity
In anaerobic excess what is required
Increase in aerobic activity, Decrease in anaerobic activity
In extremity challenge, if the vector reduces a subluxation, a weak associated muscle will
Strengthen
