1 Mapping Movement Medical Marketing Danny porcelli, dc 1 Introduction: Preparation cut 3 small strips for each person one to play around with, one to apply to their forearm Cut big daddy belts for everyone for thoracolumbar fascia 1st small strip to play with on early slides Have attendees tape their own knees and bottom of one foot. Same side is great. Preparation 2 samples strips big daddy Surrounded myself with some very smart people this is going to help advance the RT/PTM program More than a technique it s a methodology (Assess Tape Train Reassess) New paradigm in movement evaluation, treatment, and performance care longitudinal anatomy integrated anatomy Performance Care Practice giving you another sector of the population we can target with this method

2 somewhere, something went terribly wrong 2 We have a lack of movement pandemic and even worse we are teaching our kids to move less and less. Society has been set up in America to rely on cars Hip won t extend Body recruits hamstring to extend hip. Having the load of hip extension has the hamstring exposed to injury and doesn t allow for hamstring to do what it is supposed to do, which is stabilize the knee. This helps restore quad/hamstring ratio Next Slide 5 years

Brito LBB, Ricardo DR, Araujo DSMS, et al. Ability to sit and rise from the floor as a predictor of all-cause mortality. European Journal of Cardiovascular Prevention, 2012; Get up off the floor Brazilian researchers discovered an interesting link between a person s ability to sit and rise from the floor and the risk of being 6.5 times more likely to die in the next six years. The study, published in the European Journal of Cardiovascular Prevention, included a simple test in which more than 2,000 people ages 51 to 80 attempted to sit down on the floor and then stand back up using as little support as possible. The test used by the researchers required people to sit on the floor from a standing position and then return to a standing position. Speed wasn t a factor in the scoring, but support was. The more support a person required including bracing with a hand or knee or both the lower the score for each action. A perfect score of five for each action (sitting and standing) was the goal. Points and half points were deducted for things like touching a hand or knee on the ground or pushing off with a hand on one knee to stand up. Looking wobbly on the way up or down cost participants half a point. More than half the participants ages 76 to 80 failed the tests, scoring 0 to 3. Not surprising around 70 percent of those under 60 earned a near perfect or perfect score of 8, 9, or 10. People who scored 0 to 3 were 6.5 times more likely to die during the course of the 6.3 year study, compared to people who scored from 8 to 10. Those with scores of 3.5 to 5.5 were 3.8 times more likely to die as the high scorers and those who scored in the 6 to 7.4 range were 1.8 times more likely to die than those with the highest scores. During the course of the study 159 of the 2,000 volunteers died, with the majority of the deaths coming from the group that had the most trouble getting up and down. Just two subjects that scored 10 died in the follow-up of about six years, said Claudio Gil Soares de Araújo, a professor at Gama Filho University in Rio de Janeiro who worked on the study. If someone between the ages of 51 and 80 scores 10, the chances of being alive in the next six years are quite good, he said. A 1-point increment in the [sitting-rising] score was related to a 21 percent reduction in mortality," reported the investigators who noted this is the first study to demonstrate the prognostic value of the sitting-rising test, said Araújo. The ease with which a person stands and sits clues doctors in to a person s ratio of muscle power to body weight. But the researchers say there are other relevant issues. It is well known that aerobic fitness is strongly related to survival, but our study also shows that maintaining high levels of body flexibility, muscle strength, power-to-body weight ratio, and coordination are not only good for performing daily activities but have a favorable influence on life expectancy, said Araújo.

5 SIX YEAR STUDY 2,000 PEOPLE AGES 51 TO 80. A SCORE OUT OF 10. Instructions: "Without worrying about the speed of movement, try to sit and then to rise from the floor, using the minimum support that you believe is needed. Each of the two basic movements were assessed and scored out of 5, with one point being subtracted from 5 for each support used (hand, forearm, knee, for example).

I am going to talk about all 3 Active: Muscle how muscle plays a role in movement and doing a deep dive into our rehab programs and what we are trying to accomplish with the muscle with the exercises we prescribe Passive: The Joint- How motor control is affected by working on the joint, especially with HVLA Neural Motor Control how it rules the roost and how we can providers can use what we do to get better outcomes with our patients by identifying motor control issues and prescribing exercises and using RockTape to affect motor control.

15 Absent trauma, all stiffness is compensatory for instability elsewhere 15

16 Movement never lies. Martha Graham The fascial pathways are interconnected lines of fascia, or connective tissue, that run in various trains throughout our body fascial network drives our movement. Fascia has long been neglected as just the 'white packing stuff' around our muscles

18 fascia as our roadmap 18

19 IT S ALL CONNECTED Phrase: Tension and Integrity Structures that maintain their integrity due primarily to a balance of continuous tensile forces through the structure What does tensegrity have to do with the human body? The principles of tensegrity apply at essentially every detectable size scale in the body. At the macroscopic level, the 206 bones that constitute our skeleton are pulled up against the force of gravity and stabilized in a vertical form by the pull of tensile muscles, tendons and ligaments (similar to the cables in Snelson's sculptures). In other words, in the complex tensegrity structure inside every one of us, bones are the compression struts, and muscles, tendons and ligaments are the tension-bearing members. At the other end of the scale, proteins and other key molecules in the body also stabilize themselves through the principles of tensegrity.

21 nervous system Fascia muscular Pain/ Performan ce Movement articular 21 Patient or athlete presents with either PAIN and/or PERFORMANCE limitation. The syndrome typically is evaluated via assessment of the muscular, articular, and movement system, with little regard (until now) with the fascial system. All these systems are governed and controlled by the Nervous system With the PTM system we will focus on the fascial/movement components to pain/performance the only ones that are doing this (Taping Movement NOT Muscles) Research is showing (as we will review) that the tape is affecting the nervous system mostly

22 past 22 muscles stabilizing and moving the shoulder girdle For over 500 years, anatomy has been classically taught on the isolated muscle theory, focusing on individual muscle structure and function. Therapists of all disciplines typically learn origin, insertion, innervation and action of muscles in a isolated environment, with very little regard for their functional effect on movement as a whole. As a result, many sports and rehabilitation taping protocols are based on outdated concepts that muscles work in isolation, rather than applying what we now understand about movement, functional neurology, and the somatosensory system.

23 future Future 23 Do you know what direction to take to navigate the human body? Do you want a SYSTEM to help find the thieves in our body s that steal movement? Fascial Movement Taping (FMT) is based on the obvious yet largely overlooked concept of muscles acting as a chain. The FMT system utilizes longitudinal anatomy and movement pattern concepts as a guide in the assessment, taping, and training method. FMT was originally developed by Dr. Steven Capobianco, M.A, D.C, DACRB, CCSP. A long term student of fascial and movement anatomy, he has harvested what he learned through the emerging research on the all one fascia concept popularized by the innovative mind of Thomas W. Myers, LMT, NCTMB, ARP in his book Anatomy Trains. With the growing body of evidence supporting the role of the fascial system, we would, as movement specialists, be amiss if we didn t start applying this knowledge to revise what we currently do in our therapeutic and performance practices.

28 regional interdependence AKA - Joint by Joint Approach 28

29 Regional Interdependence When the assessment is initiated from the perspective of a movement pattern, the clinician is able to identify meaningful impairments that may seem unrelated to the main complaint Wainner, RS, et al. Regional Interdependence: A Musculoskeletal Examination Model Whose Time Has Come. J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2007;37(11):

30 MOBILITY vs. Stability Joint by Joint Approach Grey Cook & Michael Boyle 30 The body works in an alternating pattern of stable segments connected by mobile joints. If this pattern is altered-dysfunction and compensation will occur. Taping areas of stability loss can help generate proximal stability that optimizes mobility of adjacent regions.

36 How do we evaluate movement? 1. Screen A simple test performed on a large number of people to identify those who have or are likely to develop a specified disease (Higher Level Function) A. Static B. Dynamic 2. Assessment In depth evaluation of a clinical condition. Usually in presence of pain 3. Testing Isolated evaluation

37 Movement screen no reliable methods 37 We have many screening techniques to evaluate heart health, but we are lacking in reliable methods to screen movement system Using an integrated screen approach, a Health Professional can identify the muscle imbalance through multiple methods and correlate them to identify the correct solution

51 Self Myofascial Release (SMR) Increases tactile acuity (kinesthetic sense) Inexpensive massage that your patients can do on their own Alleviate tightness Increase ROM at joints Decrease muscle soreness Maximizing optimal length/tension relationship Relieve joint stress 51

52 rolling the brain When you treat a patient or foam roll yourself and feel better it is the nervous system that you have influenced. It is unlikely that any changes in the mechanical properties of tissues have occurred. You have convinced the nervous system to let you move farther, with greater ease or with greater strength. Thought to stimulate intra-fascial mechanoreceptors which cause alterations in the afferent input to the CNS, leading to a reduction in the activation of specific groups of motor units More widely accepted than the older mechanical models. 52

92 92 Fascial Movement Taping (FMT) utilizes Rocktape as its tape of choice. Rocktape is an American-developed, Korean-made product consisting of flexible cotton and nylon fibers and acrylic adhesive that provides the support, stimulation, and resiliency necessary for rehabilitation, injury prevention, postural support and performance enhancement. ROCKTAPE founded/developed by Greg van den Dries

93 tape - mechanical effect 93 See how the tape creates a lift the the layers of fascia (arrow) as compared to the non taped tissue. By creating a biomechanical lift, we can improve (theoretically) the gliding ability of adjacent tissues Show the different layers of tissue (epidermis, dermis, sub cutaneous tissue with skin ligaments <white diagonal lines>, superficial fascia,top horizontal line, deep fascia, and muscle) Show the difference in space between sup and deep fascia post taping. Improving gliding surfaces and potentially improving sensory stimulation of these highly sensitive structures

99 99 PAIN CHANGES OUR MOVEMENT SO ITS CRITICAL TO DOWNGRADE PAIN (VIA TAPE) BEFORE WE START MOVING BETTER Chronic nociception alters autonomic and motor output, making proper central movement control impossible. This shift in thinking is to stop trying to restore normal motor control in case of chronic nociception in patients with Musculoskeletal disorders.

109 Research shows that kinesthetic guidance can be translated into behavior 30 times faster than visual guidance can and many thousands of times faster than audio guidance. (Birdwhistell, 1971). With so many of our health problems these days being behavior-based, can we afford to ignore an medical system that promises a 30-fold decrease in the time needed for feedback? Tape is a strong/continuous kinesthetic guidance tool
