23
Q

What is mechanotransduction

A

mechanical force acting on a cell, signal transduction into the cell and nucleus, generation of a cellular response

24
Q

What is intraosseous strain

A

force stored within a bone

25
Q

What is piezoelectric phenomenon

A

mechanical stress is transformed into electrical potentials and electrical potentials are transformed into mechanical motion

26
Q

How does compression/stretching affect fascial bioelectric properties

A

production and emanation of electromagnetic fields

27
Q

How is bioelectricity of fascia measured

A

living matrix acts as giant liquid crystals that create large coherent vibrations to molecular array oscillations

28
Q

Describe the actions of the arrays of fascia

A

arrays can receive energy from or send energy to external environment

arrays allow for rapid intercommunication outside of nervous system

arrays responsible for change of tissue viscosity from sol-gel, vice versa; influenced by EMFs`

29
Q

How does acupuncture affect charges

A

places negative charges inside which attracts cells to the site to heal it

30
Q

What is Wolff’s law

A

every change in the function of a bone is followed by changes in internal architecture and external conformation in accordance with mathematical laws

31
Q

Compare compression and tension bone tissue remodeling

A

compression–electronegative
Tension–electropositive
Mechanical forces change structure and function

32
Q

What is Hooke’s law

A

stress applied to stretch or compress a body is proportional to the strain, so long as the limit of elasticity of the body is not exceeded

33
Q

How does Hooke’s law relate to fascia

A

body produced ordered reponses to stress in order to maintain homeostasis

collagen is the reactive component of fascia that handles the mechanical and internal stress. Mediator of repair, maintenance, and healing

34
Q

Define non-neurological communication

A

electrical communication through the fascia outside of the nervous system

35
Q

Define somatic dysfunction

A

Impaired or altered function of related components of the somatic (body framework) system; includes skeletal, arthrodial, and myofascial elements and related vascular, lymphatic, and neural elements

36
Q

What is bioenergetics

A

study of how endogenous and exogenous energy sources/forms influence, and control living systems and their environment

37
Q

What is bioenergy

A

energy produced endogenously by living systems

38
Q

What is the bioenergetics model

A

address the bioenergetic nature of the human being in health and disease, striving to maintain and/or support the return to homeostasis, homeodynamics through the application of biophysics principles in the biofield.

39
Q

How can the bioenerergetics model be addressed via osteopath

A
neurofascial release
lymphofascial release
dynamic strain-vector release
bioelectric fascial activation
facilitated oscillatory release
osteopathy in the cranial field
biodynamics
percussor
trauma vector-release
40
Q

What is facilitated positional release

A

system of OMT that is utilized to normalize hypertonic voluntary muscles

41
Q

What are the benefits of FPR

A

non traumatic
easily utilized
highly effective
efficient

42
Q

When can FPR be used

A

to normalize hypertonic muscles in any mart of the NMS

43
Q

What muscles can FPR be used on

A

large superficial muscles
small deep muscles attached to vertebrae
muscles attaching extremities to the torso
tender points

44
Q

When should FPR technically not be used

A

to treat joint somatic dysfunction

45
Q

How is FPR applied

A
Muscle fibers must be at rest
Body in neutral position
Compression applied to shorten muscle
Place area into EASE of motion (indirect)
Immediate relief from muscle spasm
Return body part to neutral
Re-assess
46
Q

What is neutral positioning of the body

A

a position between flexion and extension to approach neutral position

in the spine you will be flattening the A-P curve

joints in extremities you will be placing them in “loose pack” positions

47
Q

What is the basic principle of FPR

A

neutral
compress
ease

48
Q

What is the theory of FPR

A

Focus: normalization of hypertonic superficial and deep muscles

49
Q

What is the outcome of FPR

A

after treatment there is immediate restoration of normal joint function

50
Q

What are the muscles of the superficial layer

A

trapezius
latissimus dorsi
rhomboid minor
rhomboid major

51
Q

What are the muscles of the intermediate layer

A

Erector spinal muscles
serrates posterior superior
serrates posterior inferior

52
Q

What are the muscles of the deep layer

A
semispinalis thoracis
rotatores thoracis
lavatories costarum
multifidus
intertransversarii thoracis
53
Q

What is the physiologic theory of FPR

A

sudden decrease in load on muscle spindles
cause the fibers to stop discharging, which stops the excitatory signal being sent to motor neurons controlling the extrafusal muscle fiber

this resets muscle spindle reflex

54
Q

What are indications for FPR

A

superficial and deep hypertonic muscles

somatic dysfunction

pain

decreased ROM

55
Q

What are contraindications for FPR

A
osteoporosis
fracture
metastatic cancer to the bones
herniated disc
open wounds
congenital defect not amenable to manipulation
vertebrobasilar insufficiency
