- 1Agonistic reversalsAR
Controlled mobility, skill
Alternating concentric/eccentric contractions of the same functional movement. - 2Alternating isometricsAI
Stability
Adding force to muscle groups on both sides of the joint. - 3Hold-relaxHR
Mobility
Isometric contraction after a passive stretch to increase ROM. Therapist passively brings pt into new ROM.
"Push into my shoulder than relax" - 4Hold-relax active movementHRAM
Mobility
Similar to HR but pt performs ROM. At certain degrees they hold it against resistance, quick stretch is performed, and than repeat. - 5Ryhthmical rotationRR
Mobility
Slow rotating mainly used for hypertonia pts' - 6Rythmic stabilizationRS
Mobility, STability
Same as AI but w/ twisting motions of resistances while holding posture - 7Rhythmic initiationRI
Mobility
PROM to AROM to restive AROM.
"Let me move you", "Help me move you", "Move against my resistance" - 8Slow reversalSR
Stability, Controlled mobility, skill
Slow resistance concentric on concentric.
"Push into my hand" - 9Slow reversal holdSRH
Stability, Controlled mobility, Skill
Same as SR but with a isometric contraction at the end.
"Push into my hand, than hold, hold, hold."
