| convex-concave rule: with convex on concave, roll and glide occur in the ________ direction. | convex-concave rule: - with CONVEX on concave, roll and glide occur in the OPPOSITE direction - mobilizing force should be applied in the opposite direction of bone movement |
| convex-concave rule: with concave on convex, roll and glide occur in the ________ direction | convex-concave rule: - with CONCAVE on convex, roll and glide occur in the SAME direction - mobilizing force should be applied in the same direction of bone movement |
| indications for mobilization (3) | restricted joint mobility restricted accessory motion desired neurophysiological effects |
| contraindications for mobilization (8) | active disease infection advanced osteoporosis articular hypermobility fracture acute inflammation muscle guarding joint replacement |
