Research: Movement and Corrective Exercise

Manual muscles tests (MMT) for the gluteus medius, gluteus maximus, tibial internal rotators, tibialis anterior, and tibialis posterior. The compensations, overactive synergists, and interventions for the common underactive muscles in the lower body. Manual muscle testing for hip, back, SIJ, knee, and ankle pain, as well as feet flatten, feet turn out, knee bow in, knee bow out, anterior pelvic tilt, excessive forward lean, asymmetrical weight shift, lower body dysfunction, lumbopelvic hip complex dysfunction, and sacroiliac joint dysfunction.

Manual Muscle Testing (MMT): Lower Body

Goniometry of the lower body, including ankle dorsiflexion, knee extension, knee flexion, hip internal rotation, hip external rotation, hip abduction, hip flexion and hip extension goniometric assessments. A list of potential muscles, fascia, and neural structures that may restrict motion at the hip, knee, and ankle joints.

Lower Body Goniometric Assessment: Technique and potential restricting structures

Goniometry of the upper body, including shoulder flexion, extension, internal rotation, external rotation, and cervical spine goniometry. A list of potential muscles, fascia, and neural structures that may restrict motion at the shoulder and spine.

Upper Body Goniometric Assessment: Technique and Potential Restricting Structures

Manual muscles tests (MMT) for the shoulder external rotators, lower trapezius, serratus anterior, and deep cervical flexors. The compensations, overactive synergists, and interventions for the common underactive muscles in the upper body. Manual muscle testing for neck, shoulder, elbow, and scapular pain, as well as arms fall, scapula elevates, head falls forward, upper body dysfunction, and cervical dysfunction.

Manual Muscle Testing (MMT): Upper Body

Explanation of muscle length tests, including the reliability, validity, and relevance of the Ely's Test, Ober's Test, Thomas Test, Gastros/Soleus Length Test, Lat Length Test, and the Hamstring Length Test. How to use muscle length tests, outcomes (what muscle length tests show), and recommended interventions.
