Term
FPR: classification of the treatment, what makes it different from functional
Definition
indirect and passive
treatment is fast
activating force needed
Term
what are the uses of FPR (3)
Definition
superificial large muscles to treat tissue texture changes
special somatic dysfunctions maintained by small short rstrictor msuscles
acute pain after trauma
Term
explain the theory of FPR, how does it work
Definition
hypertonic muscle causes somatic dysfunction due to increased gamma motor neuron activity of the muscle spindle

shorten the muscle decreases output from the spindle and lowers afferent input to the spinal cord through 1a or 2a fibers

gamma gain decreaes and lowers tension in extrafusial muscle fibers

muscle hypertonicity relaxes
Term
what is the function of the muscle spindle
Definition
modify small motions
respond to proprioceptive information
prevent tears to muscle bodies by limiting too rapid movement or far stretching
Term
how can muscles cause somatic dysfunction
Definition
over excitement, underprepared for activity, protection from sprains strains splinting acute or chronic injury
Term
explain the procedure for FDR soft tissue
Definition
place joint in neutral and saggital position
add activating force (compression or torsion)
put tissue in position of ease via sidebending and rotation
wait 3-5 seconds
recheck
apply again or use another technique
Term
explain the procedure for FDR segmental
Definition
begin in neutral
add more flexion or extension localized to a segment
add sidebending and rotation
add facilitating force
wait 3-5 sec
Term
what are three ways to treat the lower back with FPR
Definition
prone by lifting hip with leg in triangle and pillow under belly to flaten curve

pt on side with legs in full extension, use leg to cause sidebending and rotation

patient prone with pillow under belly, let knee hang off table, use it to flex and rotate
Term
how does FPR treat diskogenic pain syndrome
Definition
pillow under abdomen, monitor herniation, flex hip and led off table, move to sidebend, rotate, flex, push knee lateral creating torsion
Term
what is the FPR diskogenic syndrome treatment good to treat
Definition
stenosis, bulfing disc, disk herniation, residuial pain after laminectomy
Term
how is FPR used to treat first rib
Definition
arm in chicken wing on boop, put hands in akward position, push down on elbow, internal rotation if needed, monitor movement of first rib, with compression adduct arm toward midline and circumduct down to the table until arm is along pt side
Term
what is the still technique classified as, what the general motion
Definition
indirect but finishes as direct
localize all planes of motion to a balance point
create activating vector force through affected tissue coming from the body used as a lever for the tissue
Term
what is the significance of the vector force in the still technique (3)
Definition
vector force takes tissue motion past restriction giving a release
one force is released and is returned to the start position
if forse is articulatory it takes tissue through the motion but is not a repetitive articulation
Term
what is the theory behind still technique
Definition
gets rid of nocioception so you can put the tissue into its barrier by doing...

put into position of ease

force vector unloads sensory receptor (golgi tendon bodies and spindles) and spinal reflexes

joint compression stimulates mechanoreceptors which inhibits muscles that cross the joint

distraction stretches the capsule inhibiting reflexes

vector is used to move tissues through neutral
Term
what are the uses and advantages of the still technique (6)
Definition
almost any dusfunction
quick
efficient
few complications
gentile
treat seated or supine
Term
what is the process of the still technique
Definition
dinf dysfunction
localize pathological neutral
induce force vector through the tissue
move the tissue to its point of restriction
passively return the pt to normal
relax vector
Term
explain how to treat thoracic, cervical and lumbar with still
Definition
put into position of ease, vector force, then move to position of restriction
Term
how is the first rib inferior and superior treated with still
Definition
index finger on head of first rib, hand on top of head, sidebend to the same side, vertical vector towards rib head, push head into opposite side bend

superior; start with opposite side bend and push head to same side bend
Term
inhaled and exhaled rib treatment with still
Definition
thumb on angle or rib, hand on elbow bring arm into adduction posteriorly, compression through elbow, move to abduction and extension in an arch

exhaled: start in abduction and extension and move to adduction in an arch so opposite
Term
how is the psoas treated with still
Definition
patient dysfunction up knees and hips flexed
monitor L2
compression through knee toward L2
abduct hip and take inferior then extend
Term
how is the piriformis treated with still
Definition
pt supine, monitor sciatic foramen, abduct hip until relaxed, compress through knee toward foramen, lead leg across opposite thigh, adduct and rotate at hip
