A structural deformity in which the first metatarsophalangeal joint becomes medially displaced is called? | Bunion |
When treating a client with pes planus you would use what techniques? | Deep gliding, kneading and friction on the calf muscles |
Anterior displacement of the vertebra, usually in the lumbar spine is called? | Spondylolisthesis |
A client with patellofemoral syndrome who has little to no local swelling may benefit most from: | Deep gliding, kneading, friction, and myofascial release to the affected quadriceps and hamstrings. |
A syononym for patellofemoral syndrome is? | chondromalacia patellae |
An accumulation of synoivial fluid behind the knee is called? | Bakers cyst |
Inflammation of the bursae is called what? | Bursitis |
Chronic bursitis is Treated with? | deep frictions and mobilizations within the clients tolerence, and followed by ice application. |
Headaches, earaches, toothaches, and jaw pain are all common symptoms for what? | Temporormandibular joint dysfunction (TMJ) |
What chronic condition is characterized by progressive damage and eventual loss of articular cartilage (often called wear and tear arthritis)? | Osteoarthritis |
What is another term used to refer to osteoarthritis? | Degenerative joint disease |
What do you avoid when treating osteoarthritis? | Joints that are red or hot to the touch |
What treatment should you avoid when treating a client with spondylosis? | Stretching or joint mobilizations of involved vertebrae |
When is massage indicated for a client with rheumatoid arthritis? | Treatment is only indicated during periods of remission |
Chronic, systemic, inflammatory arthritis leading to calcification and fusion of the joints is called what? | Ankylosing spondylitis |
What is the bacteria called that causes lyme disease? | Borrelia burgdorferi bacteria |

When treating a client diagnosed with fibromyalgia you should: | Work slowly from superficial layer then into deeper layers is an optimal treatment plan.Tender points should be deactivated carefully and slowly.Though clients often request deep tissue massage, this may exacerbate pain. |
The deposition of calcium in soft tissue that has been traumatized by an injury is called? | Myositis ossificans |
What occurs when bones are temporarily displaced at the joint with complet loss of contact between their articulating surfaces? | Dislocation |
What is a break in the bone called? | Fracture |
What is joint trauma that stretches or tears ligaments without bone displacement? | Sprain |
What treatment do you give a ligament sprain? | Avoid massage for 72hrs and use only Ice, Compression, & Elevation for this period of time.After acute stage apply cross fiber friction to realign ligament fibers. Treatments of short duration until client becomes used to pressure. |
A strain is an injury to: | a muscle or its tendon |
Contracture of the hand, fingers, and wrist resulting from reduced blood flow to the affected muscles is called? | Volkmann contracture |
