Q

How to palpate: Tibialis Anterior

A

Client: seated or supine.
Action: dorsiflexion and inversion
Therapist: look for and then palpate the distal tendon of the TA as it crosses the ankle anteromedially.
Continue proximally on lateral side of the tibia
Make sure client is not extending toe as this will contract the ED and HL
