Gliding Movements
gliding
angular movements
Flexion/extension
Abduction/Adduction
Circumduction
a bending action that decreases the angle between body parts
flexion
a straightening action that increases the angle between body parts
extension
moving away from the median plane, in a coronal plane
abduction
moving toward the median plane, in a coronal plane
adduction
a circular motion that combines flexion, extension, abduction, and adduction; the distal end of the part being moved describes a circle
circumduction
Rotational Movements
medial/lateral rotation
right/left rotation
anterior surface of moving part in brought toward the medial plane
medial (internal) rotation
anterior surface of moving part is brought away the median plane
lateral (external) rotation
rotation of a body part to the right or left around the midline of the body
right/left rotation
special movements
supination/pronation
opposition/reposition
eversion/inversion
protraction/retraction
elevation/depression
dorsiflexion/plantar flexion
rotating forearm and hand laterally so that palm faces anteriorly
supination
rotating forearm and hand medially so that palm faces posteriorly
pronation
the thumb or pinky finger is brought over to touch another digit
opposition
the thumb or pinky finger is brought back to anatomical position
reposition
moving sole of foot away from median plane
eversion
moving sole of foot toward median plane
inversion
moving anteriorly
protraction
moving posteriorly
retraction
raising a part superiorly
elevation
lowering a part inferiorly
depression
a bending action that elevates the soles, such as when you stand on your heels
dorsiflexion
a bending action that elevates the heels, such as when you stand on your toes
plantar flexion
