Swedish
"My religion is very simple, my religion is kindness" - Dali Lama

There was talk at the beginning of class about the Tappan book. Mostly about history of M. It was called Swedish gymnastics which dealt with range of motion and stretching.

Order of application when doing M.:
effleurage- warming/gliding
petrissage- gripping/lifting/squeezing
friction- deeper strokes/compressing (specific)
vibration- moving body/jostling
Swedish gymnastic- range of motion/stretching
tapotement- rhythmic percussion/relax or invigorate
nerve stroke- for of effleurage (light pressure)


Move from distal to proximal because of one way values on veins. Helps push the blood in the correct way with the values

massage
ground your self; both emotions and breath
Say hello and goodbye to the body part you are working on.
We went over proper draping of the leg
underwear on decides a persons comfort level
AND WE DID OUR FIRST EFFLEURAGE STROKE!!


Body Awareness
We all had different thoughts for what we believe body awareness is:
balance
posture
proper lifting
breathing
injury prevention
body language
self care
interact with environment
movement (mvmt)
centered
recognize/understand
resting
know limits/strengths
listening
spatial awareness
temperature
proactive

We also did standing body awareness and breathing exercise with having lengthy breaths (I also asked what we were doing because I had no idea what the numbers were about hahaha)

Have a separate journal to turn things in!


Anatomy
All test questions come from the book!

Know all the 'Regions of the Body' p20
Facial
Mandibular supraclavicular

Acromial
Scapular
Thoracic
Lumbar
Sacral
Pelvic
Carpal

Sural

Anatomical position is facing forward with palms facing forward too

Places of Movement:
Sagittal: divides body left and right and is reference for medial and lateral (midline and midsagittal are synonyms)
Frontal (coronal): divides front and back and is reference for posterior and anterior.
Transverse: upper and lower divisions of the body. Superior and inferior are other terms.

More terms:
Cranial: close to head
Caudal: close to buttock (these two only for the torso)

Posterior: back of body (less common name-dorsal)
Anterior: front of body (less common name-ventral)

Medial: closer to midline
Lateral: away from midline

Distal (distance): farther from trunk or midline
Proximal: closer to trunk (these two only for arms and legs)

Superficial: closer to surface
Deep: deeper in body


Movements of the Body:
Movement is at joints (articulation)

Flexion: bending joints by bringing bones together (fetal position is everything flexed)
Extension: opens joints; bones away
Hyperextension is mvmt beyond extension

Adduction: moving into the body (add to the body)
Abduction: moving out from the body

Medial rotation: (only shoulders and hips) comes toward midline
Lateral rotation: goes away from midline

Rotation: (only head and vertebral column)
Circumduction:(shoulders and hips only) involves flexion, extension, add/abduction

Laterflexion: (neck and spine)

elevation: up (scapula and mandible)
depression: down

Supination: (L. bent backwards) supine, on back (body and forearms)
Pronation: (L. bent forward) prone, on stomach
Side lying

Inversion: turns in (medial) (at the foot)
Eversion: turns out (lateral)

Planter flexion: point foot (pedal down)
Dorsiflexion: foot up (pedal up)

Protraction: jaw out (anterior glide)
Retraction: jaw back

Deviation: lateral deviation at jaw only
Opposition: only with thumb (bring thumb towards pinky)

This could be quite the quiz on Wednesday.
Homework for this class is p10-17 of Trail Guide
