What are the five D,s or difficulties that must be assessed for and asked to the patient before working on the neck |
Difficulty: Swallowing Dizziness Speach Double Vision Suddenly Dropping to the Floor |
|
What are the effects of Effleurage |
Chemical: Vasodilation and local blood flow are increased as a result of histamineMechanical: Increased Venous flowIncreased lymphatic flowReduction in oedema Reflex Effects: Stimulates local cutaneous mechanoreceptors that moderate painIncrease blood pressure initially, then decrease it.

What are the physiological Effects of Petrissage |
Helps reduce muscle tone-Loosens adhesions of muscle fibres and connective tissue and stretches tissuesIncrease circulation throughout tissueHelps reduce ‘toxins’ (build up of metabolites) Decrease effects of fibrous thickening |
|
Petrissage: Effetcs of Muscle Compresions |
Empties venous beds↑ capillary flowRelaxation of hypertonic Muscles↑ parasympathetic stimulation |
|
Benifits of mUscle compressions |
Empties venous beds↑ capillary flowRelaxation of hypertonic Muscles↑ parasympathetic stimulation |
|
Benfits of Wringing |
↓ stiffness due to ischaemiaLoosens adhered tissuesStretches muscle fibresMaintains/Improves muscle toneImproves circulation to nerves |
|
Benifits of Picking up |
Loosens adhesive muscle tissuesStretches muscle fibresMaintain/Improve toneIncreases circulation to nerves |
|
Benifits of Skin Rolling |
Loosens adhered cutaneous and fascial layers.Stretching fascia↑ superficial vascular flow |
|
What are the different types of trigger points ant explain them? |
Active trigger pointA TP that actively refers pain either locally or to another location (most trigger points refer pain elsewhere in the body along nerve pathways)A latent trigger pointA TP that exists, but does not yet refer pain actively, but may do so when pressure or strain is applied to the myofascial structure containing the trigger point.A key trigger point A TP that has a pain referral pattern along a nerve pathway that activates a latent trigger point on the pathway, or creates it. A satellite trigger pointA TP which is activated by a key trigger point. Successfully treating the key trigger point will often resolve the satellite, either converting it from being active to latent or completely treating it. |
|
What are The 3 energy systems |
Anaerobic – Phosphocreatine (PCr) System (ATP; triphosphate, as in three phosphates) Glycolytic or Lactic Acid System Aerobic System |
|
What is the FITT principle |
Frequency, intensity, time and type |
|
Three different types of bursitis? |
FrictionalOccurs when a tendon repeatedly moves over a bursa ChemicalCaused by a substance formed as a result of inflammatory or degenerative condition of tendons Septic Caused by bacterial infection either from blood or from external environment |
|
Effects of Tapotement massage |
Stimulates muscleHelps maintain muscle toneHelps improve muscle tone |
|
Types of Tapotement |
1. Hacking 2. Cupping 3. Pounding Shaking & JostlingA course vibration applied to a muscle group or limbs.RollingAn introductory or ending rhythmical oscillating massage technique applied to the body |
|
Effects of Deep FRiction |
Frictions stimulate fibre orientation in regenerating connective tissue:Frictions prevent adhesion formation and ruptures unwanted adhesions As transverse friction aims basically to achieve transverse movement of the collagen structure of the connective tissue, crosslinks and adhesion formation are prevented . Frictions induce a traumatic hyperemia.Forceful deep friction produces vasodilatation and increased bloodflow to the area. Stimulates nerve tissue and can tighten loose tissue |
|
What conditions can you use deep friction |
Supraspinatus tendonosis, impingement syndrome Tennis elbow or tendonosis of the common flexor or extensor tendons of the forearms Ilotibial band syndrome Achilles tendonosis Plantar fasciitis DeQuervain’s tenosynoviti |
|
Posterior Checklist |
1) Head/neck tilt.2) Head rotation indicates tightness in muscles such as sternocleidomastoid.3) Are the shoulders level? 4) Shoulder bulk. Is there an increase or a decrease in shoulder bulk? 5) Scapula distance from spine. Is the medial border of the scapula the same distance from the spine on both left and right sides?6) hat is the overall spinal alignment like? 7) What is the distance of the clients arm from their body? 8) Skin creases. Are there more skin creases on one side of the waist than the other? 9) Elbow position. 10) Thigh/calf bulk. Is this equal? 11) Calf midline. 12) Genu varum/valgus. Is the client bow legged or do they have knock knees? 13) Foot position. |
|
Side View Posture Assessment |
Does the client have a forward head posture? Are the shoulders protracted? Is there noticable kyphosis? Lumbar spine. Is this lordotic or flat? Knee position. Are the knees normal, flexed or hyperextended? |
|
Lateral Ankle Sprain |
Typical injury sequence:Anterior Talofibular LigamentCalcaneofibular LigamentPosterior talofibular ligamentMusculotendinous units supporting the ankle joint
|
|
Stress Fracture |
Hairline or microscopic break in a bone due to repetitive stress rather than trauma. |
|
What are the two ankle tests called and what are you kooing for when doing these tests |
Anerior draw and ankle tilt. Looking for pain or laxity. |
|
What is Carpal Tunnel Syndrom |
Impingement on the median nerve through the carpal tunnelTunnel is 20mm wide and 25mm long. 9 flexor tendons pass through and the median nerve. Causes:Inflammation of flexor tendonsPregnancyFractureHand intensive activities i.e cycling |
