Thoracic and Lumbar ME Flashcards
Fryette’s principle 1
when spine neutral, rotation and sidebending in opposite directions
Fryette’s principle 2
when spine is flexed or extended (beyond neutral), rotation and sidebending of at least one segment will be to same side
Fryette’s principle 3
initiation of motion in any one plane will modify motion in the other 2 planes
type I dysfunction
sidebending first, then rotation
type II dysfunction
rotation first, then sidebending
