Foundations
Systematic, planned performance of physical movements, postures, or activities intended to remediate or prevent impairment of function and improve or restore activity and participation
What is Therapeutic Exercise?
Motion produced by an external force, manual or mechanical
What is passive range of motion (PROM)?
This type of stretch is done through repetitive bouncing against the end range with higher velocities.
What is Ballistic Stretching?
The distal end of the femur is this shape of surface.
What is convex?
The quads do this
What is extend the knee
Three components of physical function
Balance, cardiopulmonary endurance, neuromuscular control, mobility, muscle performance, stability
Wand (T-bar), Wall climbing, finger ladder, Bands and Strap, Ball rolling can be used for this type of ROM
What is AAROM?
Tissue quality that allows the ability to return to position following a load being applied
What is elasticity?
This type of manual therapy uses high-velocity thrusts and often produces cavitation.
What is manipulation
hip compared to ankle
What is proximal?
Condition (impairment) that results in a range of activity limitations or participation restrictions, also the top of the ICF model
What is Disability/Dysfunction/disorder?
Goals for this type of ROM are to maintain elasticity of muscle, provide sensory feedback, stimulus for tissue integrity, develop motor skills
What is active range of motion (AROM)?
This type of stretching is prescribed to patients/clients and allows the patient to use equipment and or positioning that they can do on their own.
What is self Self-stretching?
Flexion, Extension, and Abduction are all examples of this type of movement; Movement of the bony lever about an axis of motion
What are osteokinematics
This axis of movement goes with the transverse plane
What is a vertical axis
Purposeful interaction of the therapist; Manual therapy, therapeutic exercise, therapeutic activities, modalities, etc.
What is an intervention?
the limitation in the range of motion (ROM) of a joint due to the length of the muscles that cross it; the muscle can not produce force due to the muscle being lengthened
What is Passive Insufficiency?
This type of contracture is a condition where a muscle permanently shortens while at rest. It can occur when a muscle is immobilized or paralyzed
What is a myostatic contracture?
grade of oscillation mobilization with large amplitude thrusts within the range, to elicit pain inhibition and fluid movement
What are Grade II joint mobilizations?
Body position to begin doing sit-ups.
What is hook-lying?
Theory that drives the idea behind increasing or decreasing tolerance, at the bookends, it results in death.
What is the physical stress theory?
The distance a muscle is capable of shortening after it has been maximally elongated
What is Functional Excursion?
GTOs provide a response, a protective mechanism that causes muscles to relax when they are over-stimulated or tense
What is Autogenic Insufficiency?
Direction and grade in which you mobilize the talus to increase dorsiflexion at the ankle
What is Posterior and grade III/IV?
Movement plane associated with shoulder horizontal abduction
What is the transverse plane?
