Question 9

Shoulder adduction, aka ________, is done by the ______ and _______ mm.

Answer 9

Question 10

7 stages of spencer’s technique

Answer 10

1. Extension
2. Flexion
3. Compression circumduction
4. Traction circumduction
   5a. Adduction and ER
   5b. Abduction
5. Internal rotation
6. Traction with inferior glide

Question 11
