Q

5 indications for stretching

A
  1. ROM limitations b/c of adhesions, contractures, scar tissue
  2. when restricted motion may lead to structural deformities that are otherwise preventable
  3. when muscle weakness and shortening of opposing tissue lead to decreased ROM
  4. as a part of total fitness program to reduce injury
  5. prior and after vigorous excercise to minimize soreness

Q

stretching contraindications

A

bony block limits motion
soft tissue healing could be disrupted
sharp acute pain with joint movement or muscle elongation
hypermobility already exists
shortened soft tissues provide support instead of neuromuscular control or normal structural stability

11
Q

describe static stretching

A
15-30 second stretches
2-4 reps
position patient for relaxation
decrease intensity if painful
careful with hypermobile joints
avoid combination movements of the spine

Q

what is bad about ballistic stretches?

A

increased injury risk
chronic contracture causes brittle tissue
not for injury recovery

Q

describe active dynamic stretching?

A

movement through a full range
start slow gradually pick up speed ad increase ROM
Use sport/task-specific movements

16
Q

PNF

A

proprioceptive meuromuscular facilitation

17
Q

what are the facilitation techniques for PNF

A

motor control
increases exitability of target muscles
restore muscle function
increase ability to move
increase stability
facilitate coordinated movement through tiing
increase patient’s stamina to avoid fatigue

18
Q

what are inhibiition techniques for PNF?

A

motor control
decrease motor neuron excitability
reduction in spasticity
improve motion

19
Q

parts to spiral-diagonal plane for PNF

A

flexion-extension
rotation
toward and across midline

20
Q

static stretching single plane example

A

stretching the hamstrings

effective but not as functional as multi-plane stretching

21
Q

what are some advantages for PNF patterns?

A

form the basis for all movement
alternating agonist/antagonist control
multiple planes of movment
create control with alternating mobility and stability
