Law of 3’s
T1-3 and 12 are in line with their transverse process
T4-6 and 11 are 1/2 level below their TP
T7-9 and 10 are 1 level below their TP
What techniques use active participation

Pump Handle Ribs
1-5
Bucket handle ribs
6-10
Scoliosis diagnostic angle
10+ degrees
Named for convexity
Scoliosis that can do conservative therapy
1-15 degrees
Scoliosis that needs bracing
20-49 degrees
Scoliosis that needs surgery
more than 50 degrees
Affects respiratory function
above 75 affects cardiac function
Konstantin exercises
Part of conservative management for scoliosis
Short leg affect on innominate
Posterior rotation
Backward Sacral torsion rules
(Shallow Sulcus) on (Axis)
opposite on opposite
L5 points down at the axis
L5 rotated to axis
SPRING+
Forward Sacral torsion rules
(Shallow Sulcus) on (Axis)
Same on Same
L5 points down at the axis
L5 rotates away from axis
NO SPRING
What direction does the wrist move when the carrying angle increases?
Adduction
What direction does the ulna move when the carrying angle increases?
Abduction
What direction does the radial head glide upon supination, pronation?
Supination = Anterior glide
Pronation = Posterior glide
Where does the radial head go with FOOSH?
Posterior
(backward fall it goes anterior)
Movement caused by pronated ankle
Dorsiflexion, Eversion, Abduction and anterior glide of fibular head
Movement caused by anterior glide of fibular head
Posterior distal tibia
Talus ER
Everted, dorsiflexed foot
Purpose of CV4 Technique
Increase CRI amplitude
