Manual Therapy pointers for Homolateral Movement Patterns
MANUAL THERAPY ZONES OF FOCUS
Lateral Lines:
Temporal/Atlas:
C1/C2: Freeing the skull to rotate horizontally as in nodding “No”. Discussion on this here:
ATLAS/AXIS
Pelvis: Sacral/Iliac joints – bilateral symmetry and freedom of rotation of the Pelvis.
Feet: Lateral Stability Mechanism (Outside of foot/Fibula/Popleteus). Discussion on this here:
LATERAL STABILIZATION OF THE FEET
Shoulder Girdle: Inhibition of the Shoulder Girdle at the Manubrium. Discussion of this here:
MANIPULATION CORE
CRANIAL THERAPY
Temporal/Occiput: Inhibition of motion of the Temporal Bone over the Occiput.
Temporal/Parietal: Inhibition of the sliding motion of the Temporal Bone relative to the Parietal Bone. This sliding motion is demonstrated in this video:
