5 1 Away from the barrier Thrust 5 - against the restrictive barrier -in a relaxed controlled manner -along the right plane -with a nice successful «pop»

6 1 Away from the barrier Thrust Direct Indirect 6 No pain manner No pain Rule

9 Table of contents Indirect manipulation 2 - Definition 3 HVLA and pain 4 The indirect methods 5 Seven basic HVLA techniques 6 - Conclusions 1st International Congress of Osteopathic Medicine September

10 2 - Definitions Dysfunction in the mobile segment of Junghans Signs in: -dermatome -myotome -sclerotome

11 3 HVLA = pain? 3.2 Pain and Nociception 11 - Nociception is a sensory process, though pain is a sensation, a perception - A pain avoider or a pain confronter?

19 3 HVLA = pain? 3.4 Classification of indirect technique 19 -Robert Maigne s technique ( 1968 thrust in the direction of freer permitted motion) 1st International Congress of Osteopathic Medicine September

20 3 HVLA = pain? 3.4 Classification of indirect technique 20 Michael L. Kuchera the operator : - goes away from the restrictive barrier to a point of ease or balance. This is a localized area of ease in all planes normal to that joint and is termed the indirect barrier. - The operator then uses intrinsic body forces, including respiration along with traction or compression to help the body remove the barrier. 1st International Congress of Osteopathic Medicine September

21 3 HVLA = pain? 3.4 Classification of indirect technique 21...part away from the restrictive barrier to a point where all the planes of motion are balanced and there is relaxation of all the factors that mechanically or neurologically are maintaining the barrier 1st International Congress of Osteopathic Medicine September

22 3 HVLA = pain? 3.4 Classification of indirect technique 22 Indirect positioning: The operator places the joint in the direction in which it likes to go the best moment to manipulate a joint 1st International Congress of Osteopathic Medicine September

23 3 HVLA = pain? 3.5 The functional approach 23 Karel Lewit : The locomotor system informs us of dysfunction by way of pain and tension -tight muscle, -dysfunctional joint, -thickening of skin, fascia and muscle Stereotypical patterns of muscle imbalance in predictable kinetic chain reactions 1st International Congress of Osteopathic Medicine September

45 5 Seven basic Maigne techniques The rules of our manipulation : -patient must be relaxed -operator must be relaxed -one joint is mobilized at a time -one movement in a joint is restored at a time -one aspect of joint is moved upon the other which is stabilized -no forceful movement must ever be used -the manipulative movement is a sharp thrust gapping the joint -in a no-pain manner and freer movement -the movement occurs when all of the slack has been taken up -no therapeutic maneuver is done in the presence of joint or bone inflammation or disease

46 5 Seven basic Maigne techniques 5.1 Cervical rotation 46 Recruitment: In flexion: one hand cradles the occiput and flexes the cervical spine, the other hand palpates the concerned level, the middle finger pad beneath the spinous process to be manipulated, the index finger beneath the lower spinous process, and controls the mobility of the joint on the side of the Minor Intervertebral Disorder (MID)

47 5 Seven basic Maigne techniques 5.1 Cervical rotation 47 OOperator moves along the sidebending hand which is entirely flattened against the neck and mobilizes only the upper part of the neck. This is a pure movement without rotation. Focus WWith a lateral translation against the opposite side. Putting under tension-thrust IIn rotation, limited by a correct use of the preceding parameters. The rotation is pure, parallel with the shoulder line. 1st International Congress of Osteopathic Medicine September

63 6 Conclusions 63 Skin Receptors Spinal cord Brain Body Suffering patient Primum non nocere

64 6 Conclusions 64 Irwin Korr Musculoskeletal system = the primary machinery of life

65 6 Conclusions 65 Janda To rehabilitate the motor system: -normalize joint function -relax hypertonic muscles -facilitate inhibited muscles -reprogram coordinated movement

66 6 Conclusions 66 -The aim of manipulation: Normalize a «bind» -The basis: the «barrier» phenomena -The muscle release techniques =long term results

67 6 Conclusions 67 Korr The spinal cord is : the keyboard on which the brain plays when it calls for activity or for change in activity

68 6 Conclusions 68 Lewit -Segmental dysfunction is the key reflex change associated with pain - treating joint dysfunction is the first line of treatment - Interface between muscles and joints is the rule - Identify the key link in a patient s dysfunctional chain
