Authors of The Trigger Point Manual
Travell and Simons
Definition of Acupuncture point
Precise points along meridian as defined by Chinese medicine
5 classifications of myo-fascial TP
Active Latent Satellite Central Attachment
definition of patient pain recognition
digital ischemic compression on tender nodule that may produce the patients pain symptom
definition of PSS positive stretch sign
pain of mechanical or neural origin develops in joint during myofascial stretching
Micro-trauma & MTP syndrome caused by what situations
faulty posture postural & skeletal asymmetries poor body mechanics stressed body positions over prolonged period of time
Latent TP
silent until touched - RPP & LTR
biomechanics of injury for flexor carpi radialis
repetitive finger & wrist motion such as assembly line workers & cashiers
action of biceps brachii
forearm and elbow flexion w/ supination - weak arm and shoulder flexion
Due to the fact that there are several TP in extensor muscles in same area therapist should have patient what ______
actively contract muscle
Myo-fascial stretching of biceps brachii
extension of elbow with shoulder extended
biomechanics of injury for Pronator Teres involves which activities
sports activities - wrists & elbow fractures
Origin & Insertion of rectus abdominus
O: Pubic crest & ligament in front of pubic symphysis I: Xiphoid process & over the costal margin of 7th - 5th cartilages
RPP of diaphragm
chest pain, dyspnea, inability to get full breath & low back pain
biomechanics of injury for diaphragm
prolonged shallow breathing, constant coughing
Origin of Quadratus Lumborum
Iliolumbar ligament adjacent part of iliac crest & inferior 2-4 lumbar transverse processes
muscle commonly confused w/ pain pattern of Quadratus Lumborum & can mimic sciatic pain - distinguishing characteristic is of anterior rotation of ilium
Iliopsoas
patient w/ difficulty extending left hip and pain on adduction and external rotation w/ sacroiliac pain and tenderness to palpation along IT band - what muscle is dysfunctional
tensor fascial latae
Rhomboid muscle are often major complaint because
phasic muscles and are stretched for long periods of time
term best describes adduction of limb
towards midline of body
2 muscles make up iliopsoas group
Psoas major & Iliacus
Upper crossed syndrome may cause MTP via prolonged over-stretching of these muscles
mid & lower traps & Rhomoid major
