Answer |
| the continuing palpatory feedback in myofascial release is what? |
the unwinding that is palpated |
| what are evoked by the abnormal depolarization of motor end-plates? |
trigger points |
| in what method does the operator apply biomechanical loading of soft tissues. Neural reflex modifications are made by stimulation of mechanoreceptors in the fascia: |
myofascial release |
| resistant barrier engaged directly with tissue stretching: |
direct myofascial release |
| loading occurs in the direction away from restrictive barrier: |
indirect myofasical release |
| what is the goal of myofascial release? |
normalize activity at the motor end-plate |
| what is the primary structure of collagen? |
a series of insoluble helical isoproteins with glycine cores |
| what is the quaternary structure of collagen? |
the tropocollagen molecule- a helix composed of three collagen monomers |
| what is the structure of elastin? |
random coil elastin monomers form extensive networks of lysine cross-linked fibers |
| what is the function of elastin? |
Interwoven in varying amounts with collagen fibers to increase tissue flexibility and prevent tissue tearing |
| what is the structure of ground substance? |
composed of mucopolysaccharides and glycoproteins |
| ground substances behaves in what manner? |
colloidal |
| what is the function of ground substance? |
maintains distance between fibers preventing microadhesions, controls access to fibroblast, cushions fibers, maintains extensibility |
| what is the gross structure of collagen? |
lysine and hydroxylysine crosslinked rope-like fibers of tropocollagen units |
| Forms fibrous tissues of high tensile strength Varying isocollagen content provides varying flexibility and fiber composition at different developmental stages is the function of what? |
collagen |
| fibroblasts are under what control? |
neuroendocrine control |
| what do fibroblasts produce? |
collagen and ground substance |
| under pressure, fibroblasts produce and organize collagen how? |
along the same stress lines as the direction of force |
| how does dascia adapt to external forces? |
cross linking of collagen |
| what are the three substructures of fascia? |
superficial, deep, and subserous fascia |

| a restrictive barrier is engaged for the myofascial tissues; the tissue is loaded with a constant force until tissue release occurs: |
direct myofascial release |
| dysfunctional tissues are guided along the path of least resistance (away from the barrier) until free movement is achieved: |
indirect myofascial release |
| the limit to motion is what? |
barrier |
| limit imposed by anatomic structure (passive) |
anatomic |
| limit of active motion? |
physiologic |
| functional limit within anatomic range of motion, which abnormally diminishes the physiologic range? |
restrictive barrier |

| when a muscle receives an nerve impulse to contract, its antagonists receive, simultaneously, an impulse to relax is what law? |
sherrington's law |
| how can you diagnose fascia? |
myofascial drag |
