The physical therapy evaluation of a patient's cervical spine determines that compression of the (R) C5/C6 facet joint reproduces the patient's symptoms
Which of the following osteokinematic movements would be primarily responsible for reproducing the patient's symptoms?
a. Flexion
b. (R) rotation
c. (L) rotation and (R) lateral flexion
d. (R) rotation and (L) lateral flexion
ANS: C
Due to the coupled motion pattern seen in the spine, compression of the (R) facet would occur
primarily with rotation to the (L) and with (R) lateral flexion. The compression occurs with (R)
lateral flexion as a coupled rotation to the (L) would occur.
