Muscle Energy technique definition
-OMT where patient's muscles active against counterforce
Anatomic-Physiological Principles of muscle energy (6)
-Post-Isometric Relaxation
-Reciprocal Inhibition
-Oculocephalogyric Reflex
-Joint mobilization using force
-Respiratory assistance
-Crossed Extensor Reflex
2 types of joint restrictors
-MONOARTICULAR MUSCLES
-POLYARTICULAR MUSCLES
MONOARTICULAR MUSCLES key in? (2)
-short restrictors
-type II dysfunction
POLYARTICULAR MUSCLES key in? (2)
-long restrictors
-type I dysfunction
Post-Isometric Relaxation (PIR)
-Relaxation of muscle after isometric contraction
Reciprocal Inhibition (RI)
-Inhibition of antagonist when agonist stimulated
Oculocephalogyric Reflex
-movement of head leads/follows eyes
Oculocephalogyric Reflex AKA (2)
-Oculogyric
-cephalogyric
Oculocervical
-Eye movement causes relaxation of cervical muscles through PIR or RI
Joint Mobilization using Muscle Force
-muscle contraction to focus forces toward dysfunction
Joint Mobilization using Muscle Force example
-Thoracic Type I Muscle energy
Respiratory Assistance
-inhalation/exhalation by patient to assist treatment
Steps in Performing ME (8)
1. Find somatic dysfunction and restrictions
2. Position in "feather's edge" of restrictive barrier(s)
3. Tell to GENTLY push away from restrictive barrier while hold 3-5 seconds
4. Tell to relax
5. position into new restrictive barrier
6. Repeat steps 3, 4, 5 two-three times
7. passive stretch at end
8. Re-assess
