UCMT Myokinetic

Flashcards to help remember facts about Master Class - Myokinetic Techniques

QuestionAnswer
Kinetic The study of motion and rate of change.
Goals for myokinetics include... Increased Range of Motion, Quality of Movement, and restore proper function of the body.
Hypodermis or Tela Subcutanea... Superfiscial Fascia.
True Fascia... Made of D.I.C.T., this is the deep fascia of the body.
This fascia wraps the entire mscle... Epimysium.
This fascia wraps the muscles into bundles, OR fasciculi. Perimysium.
This fascia wraps and binds around the myofibrils within the fasciculus... Endomysium.
This is a tough continusous tissue attaching muscle to bone. Tendon.
This is a tough continuous tissue that attaches bone to bone. Ligament.
This is the fascia that wraps each bone. Periosteum.
Tensile strength for fascia is provided by... Collagen.
The pressure that is exerted outward by the weight of the fluid against the surrounding structures is... Hydrostatic Pressure.
THe causes for restrictions within the body are... Injury, Lack of movement, repetitive movement, chronic holding patterns, pathologies, and emotions.
Indications for myokinetic bodywork are... Limited range of motion, musculoskeletal disorders, joint dysfunctions (even after replacement surgury), pain, decreased performance.
Cautions when working with myokinetic techniques are... Inflammation, cancer, chemically compromised, compromised immune function, pregnancy, and loss of joint integrity.
The process of assigning a value to a dysfunction or deviation is called... Assessment.
Two steps of assessment are... Determine a starting point and reassess after treatment.
What are the seven Horizontal Lines or bands? Sphenobasilar "Eye Band", Craniocervical "Chin Band", Cervicothoracic "Collar/Clavicular Band", Dorsal/Mid-Thoracic Hinge "Chest Band", THoracolumbar "Belly Band", Sacrolumbar "Inguinal Band", Sacrococcygeal "Groin/Pubic Band"
What are the main views for assessment? Frontal, Posterior, Left Side, Right Side
Awareness of the body's self in 3-D space is... Proprioception.
Retraining the proprioceptive cells through specific repetitions is... Re-Patterning
Sensory Receptors located near musculotendonal junctions that cause the muscle to relax, when activated by increase of tension, to prevent injury. Golgi Tendon Organs
Sensory receptor located within muscle belly tissues that cause muscular contraction, when activated from sudden increase in muscle length, to stabilize and prevent injury. Muscle Spindle Cells.
Sensory organs located in joint capsules and monitor pressure and acceleration or deceleration of joint movement. Joint Kinesthetic Receptors.
What are the two types of self movement? Reflexive (inherited as in blinking, swallowing, and etc.) and Learned (practiced movement as in walking and eating.)
Stimulus Identification. Sensory information learned when a new stimulus is introduced, (as when thrown a ball, a young child often is hit by the ball before it is realized.)
Response Selection. Sensory information repeats and the information is stored in the short term memory. (as in a young child realizing the ball is going to be thrown and gets ready to catch.)
Response programming. Sensory information stored in the long term memory after repetition has been consistant. (A young child catches a ball thrown at him/her after not catching it multiple times.)
Motor Learning. A set process, which leads to changes in skilled behavior. (Stimulus Identification, Response Selection, and Response Programming.
Re-Patterning. Continuously fashioning according to a pattern.
A dysfunction where the knee is taken, and locked into hyperextension. Genu recurvatum.
A hip dysfunction of the SBL where one os coxa tips in a posterior direction. Retroverted Hip.
A bilateral tilt on the pelvis usually from short hamstrings. Posterior pelvic tilt.
A dysfuntion where the entire back line is shortened from the calcaneous to the scapulae, usually bilaterally. Body Bow.
A dysfunction where the patellar tendon is being pulled to one side. Patellar Tracking.
A dysfunction often caused by patellar tracking that is a softening of the articular cartilage behind the patella. Chondromalacia.
The addition of osseus tissues to the tibial tuberosity due to overdeveloped quadricaps muscles, often found in youth. Osgood-Schlatter disease.
A dysfunction in which one os coxa is tipped anteriorly. Anteverted hip.
A dysfunction in which anterior superior iliac spines are inferior to the posterior superior iliac spine. Anterior Pelvic Tilt.
A dysfunction due to a shortening on the anterior trunk, usually caused by shortened abs. Ventral Drag.
A cojndition in which the natural Kyphotic curve is overdeveloped. Kyphosis.
What is the postural function of the lateral line? Balances and supports SFL & SBL.
A dysfunction where the plantar surface of the foot is brought aay from the midline causing a collapsed arch. Eversion of the foot.
A dysfunction where excessive tensile strength on the IT Band creates friction as it crosses over the femoral epicondyle. IT Band Friction Syndrome.
A dysfunction where the distal portion of the tibia deviates medially. Genu Varum or "Bow-legged".
A dysfunction where the plantar surface of the foot is brought toward the midline creating a high arch. Inversion of the foot.
A nerve entrapment at the site just posterior and inferior to the medial malleolus. Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome.
A dysfunction where the distal portion of the tibia deviates laterally bringing the knees together. Genu Valgum or "Knock-Knee"
A dysfunction caused compensation where hip flexors and lumbar muscles are locked short inhibiting their antagonist muscles. Pelvic Crossed Syndrome.
Working on viscerosomatic dysfunctions, a therapist should work... Deeper to reach the organ level.
Working on somatoviscaral dysfunctions, a therapist should work... superficial to relax the muscles activating trigger points.
The purpose of the Sacral fascia is... to anchor lumbodorsal fascia to the sacrotuberous ligament.
