Dysfunction Cause
I just ran a marathon yesterday and today my muscles feel so weak. What may be the cause?
ATP
You found a section of hypertonicity about 2 cm long. What would you use to treat it?
Ischemic Compression
You are applying LCF to the dysfunction. What are you trying to alter neurologically in this application?
Reduced Flower Spray stimulation
What treatment uses a sustained contraction with no alteration to the joint position?
Isometrics.
What technique would be indicated for ATP deficiency?
IC or SCS
I had this injury about 6 months ago and could not move my head hardly at all. I can move it now for the most part but find it's still very painful.
Neuronal Adaptation
The client is anxious and tends to be unable to rest. They complain of cramps in their muscles. What would you use to treat their hypertonicity?
Stripping
There appears to be redness after your application for IC. What would this be caused by?
Reflexive hyperemia
What is the most common error made in Isometrics?
Taking the muscle passed the first barrier.
What is the best application on a client with severe fibromyalgia?
Goading
You have found a section of W4 tissue resistance. The client says ah that has been there for years. What would it be?
The client has had low back pain for years. The tissue feels like W4. What would you use to treat it?
LCF
You have just performed stripping on the Hamstrings and the muscle seems to be cramping. Why did this occur?
To fast or deep an application
Why do my IC and SCS techniques not work or cause the muscle to contract?
Too Much Pressure
You find a W5 in the tissues. What distinguishes it between an Adhesion and a Contracture?
Age, size, formation to fasciculi.
I find that I get pain first thing in the morning but eases later on. What would this be?
Joint Dysfunction
The client's symptoms show a hypertonicity of 7 cm in length. They say it's worse after working out and their stress level is high at work. What may be the best approach to treat it?
SCS
The client suffers from anxiety and stress. What is the best technique to apply to the area of severity?
Goading and Effleurage
What is indicated if I have Asymetrical Flexion of the hip in active and passive movements?
Hypertonic Extensors
Why would you use reciprocal inversion and how?
Cant contact the target muscle with hypertonicity and I would have the antagonist isometrically contract.
Passive is restricted when this action is performed. What would be the cause?
Hypertonic Antagonists
The client shows hypertonicity in the quadriceps muscles. She is a construction worker. What would you apply to their hamstrings as part of the treatment?
IMFS
Your client has a liver disorder and phantom bruising. What techniques should you avoid?
Tapotement and IMFS
Isotonics or dynamic resistance.
Why would I use IMFS on a muscle that was not complained about or appeared to show dysfunction?
Its antagonist was originally hypertonic.
