manoeuvre effects

physiological effects by manoeuvre

QuestionAnswer
Effleurage -promote superficial blood vessel vasodilation -improve connective fibre suppleness in skin -improve cutaneous blood flow -desensitize cutaneous sensory receptors -stimulate transit excess superficial lymp?interstitial fluid to lymp. capillaries
Rocking -improve fluid distribution (bllod/lymph./interstitial) -reduce muscle resistance following rebound of fluids on myofibrils -desensitize proprioreceptors (gto's and spindles) by fluid movement effect
Petrissage -dissociate muscle fibres of muscles on same plane -loosen adhesions btwn muscle planes and fascia -increase oxygen and nutrient flow to adjacent tissues -desensitize proprioreceptors -increase fibre suppleness muscular/tendon/fascia)
Percussion -deprogram muscle resistance -increase muscular slackening -reduce blood flow resistance by decrease tissue compression on blood vessel paths -loosen and dissociate inter-tissue structures and adhesions btwn muscle layers -increase body temp/hyperemia
Foulage -reduce compression adj muscles/connective tissues on nerve paths and blood vessels -dissociates muscle fibers/tendons/fascia along tissue layer -stretch and lengthen muscle tissues to increase suppleness and extensibility -local release of actin-myosi
Friction -loosen adhesions formed btw muscle fibers/tendons/ligaments/ap -stretch collagen/elastic fibers=enhance suppleness -maintain local vasodil/hyperemia -promote alignment collagen fibers -increase local superficial temp
Drainage -equilibrium of fluid distribution in body -stimulate venous return twrds subclavian and femoral veins -clear excess fluids from deep tissue layers -increase transit metabolic wastes and toxins to venous and lumph capillaries to liver to excretory orga
Vibration -enhance superficial lymp flow -facilitate wbc circulation in affected cutaneous tissue --enhance transit metabolic wates and toxins to interstitial/venous/lymp compartments
Mobilization -increase liquification of synovial fluid -increase amplitude or articular movements -maintain/increase suppleness of ligament/tendon/fascia

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
