okay yeah in the earlier video I talked
about facet opening and closing if for
instance that we glided from the left
sorry from the right side to the left
side and then we glided in from the left
side to the right to be doing
translation if I said that the right
side facet does not want to open so more
more likely it's fixed in the closed
position so the osteopathic approach
would be to try to to open the facet so
this is c1 to c2 so if I'm saying
seriously free then it's probably not
the best vertebra to explain but this
facet on his side is relatively fixed
closed so it doesn't want to open in
terms of opening might look a bit
awkward however do this because we
almost closed it to start with so it's
almost like encouraging what is already
doing but the opening would be towards
your to die so what that means is if I
use my mCP joint on to c2 so I'm going
to slowly side then my patient down to a
level and rotate till we get a lock so
wide open by joint because I'm saying
it's closed towards the opposite eye but
the movement will be very fast just to
try to open my joint so if I just do
this one but from an a meaty perspective
which we do after we do an enmity from
here so the difference would be this
would be an mu T we contract relaxed and
encouraging movement let me just show
you guys an example from there just slow
return to the right this way so my
patient is turning to the right
encouraging closure and after a 10
seconds it would take relax take a
breath and I should be using moves out I
would encourage movement going that way
see she's a little bit jamming in there
she's locking the MIT would help but
summers it feels a bit locked so I'm
just going to just gently change her
position so I'm going to sign Bend and
lock there okay just go this there's a
lock Wow that's a first for her face
again
okay okay so now if I was to retest that
I would expect an easy opening on the
right side however if my diagnosis was
incorrect let's say for instance but
it's not the right side as fixed closed
it is the left side is fixed open we
just come around the side individuals so
for instance I would come in and lock
she's locked in there as well so rather
than trying to rotate open rotate open
what type of frustrating I do this time
stroke proper rotation to open if I want
to close it I would have to do what side
side thrust okay so for instance but I'm
not gonna force it so I'm going to come
into there so I move the thrust this
time rather than a rotation
it's a side Frost okay okay so what I
did been I open the right and I closed
the left nice okay and then if I go back
to the translation their nips Vil you'll
be like flapping in the wind
okay I'm open going uh protests and
movements you probably have the
stillness if at the end but then I'd
come on to c7 flower but I should be a
lot better
okay so allows an initiative technique
to close the right normal to open right
and to close the left okay
