Range of motion

attaches to the anterior, inferior and posterior margins of the glenoid labrum and goes through laterally to the inferior aspects of the anatomical and surgical necks of the humerus. Hence, this ligament supports the joint most effectively in the upper ranges of abduction. Rotator cuff…

Introduction Lateral epicondylitis also known as “Tennis Elbow”, is a chronic condition that presents pain in the lateral portion of the the elbow. Frequently seen in sports that require a repetitive motion of forearm flexion and extension, such as tennis, pitching, golf, javelin throwing, and fencing, the muscles that are typically involved, but are not limited to, include the extensor muscles.(1) This muscle group encompasses the extensor carpi radialis brevis and the extensor digitorum…

rubber circle. It is located on the underside of the mouse allowing it to roll in any direction while the mouse moves on a flat surface. Through a system of mechanism this movement is captured and converted into an electronic signal that controls the motion of the pointer on the computer screen. Internal circuit board. The internal circuit board of a mouse can be compared to the human body’s nervous system. It collects and decodes information from the user’s clicking, scrolling, and movement.…

The heat will allow improved blood supply and alternated with cold therapy to squeeze out swelling and dead tissue cells, will improve your range of motion and also prevent the injury from stiffening up. - Eating a healthy diet with proper nutrition is very important when you have had any kind of injury. Your body needs vitamins and minerals to repair itself and those in food are much more readily…

For a proper assisted chin up you will need a thick stretch band or the assistance of a friend or a personal trainer to hold your legs. If you are using another person, bend your…

I have researched Scoliosis for this Skeletal System Case Study. Where a healthy spine appears straight from behind, a spine that has developed Scoliosis will curve to the side. In this study I explored the causes, types, treatments and the use of massage therapy to help ease the affects Scoliosis has on the body. Scoliosis occurs when the spine develops an abnormal lateral curve during growth. Doctors use an S or C to describe the curve of the spine. Scoliosis can be Congenital, which means…

pain. The patient's straight line walking was good. The patient's left ankle measured +2 degrees of dorsiflexion, 44 degrees of plantar flexion, 18 degrees of inversion, 18 degrees of eversion. The patient denied any adverse pain during the range of motion assessment. Manual muscle test to left ankle demonstrated 4-4+/5 strength. Again, the patient denied any adverse pain during exertion. Today's treatment consisted of evaluation x20 minutes, followed by therapy to exercise consisting of…

include ibuprofen and naproxen. Stronger NSAIDs are available by prescription. -Physical Therapy: A physical therapist can work with the patient to create an exercise plan that will strengthen the muscles around the joint and improve range of…

The purpose of the study was to research the biomechanical factors surroundings the kicking in soccer. A biomechanical approach analysis the motion of the performer and how the effects of forces affect the performer. Movement analysis can be evaluated kinematically where movement is observed & described qualitatively, or kinetically, where the forces applied by the performer are measured quantitatively…

physical therapy was established at the Walter Reed Army Hospital in Washington, D.C. after the outbreak of World War I, and 14 additional schools were established soon afterwards. The reason why people go into the Physical Therapy because of the Salary ranges,…
