This video was so very helpful to me, a Veteran with a 25 year old shoulder surgery and a C5/6 fusion about 12 years old. Thank you, thank you very much. I appreciate this sincerely. God bless you.
Thanks for taking the time to share your journey as well as some feedback. I'm glad you found this to be a resource. Wishing you continued health and wellness!
As a kinesiology student I am so glad to have found this page! This will be a big help when it comes to helping train the athletes at the college! I feel so comfortable taking measurements now with the extra help!
Glad you found this helpful, Stephanie - feel free to share these videos and resources with anyone else who may benefit. Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback as well! 🙏
Great mobility indeed! Hopefully you've partnered with a provider who can help you restore mobility and function as the body remains highly adaptable even after surgical care. Wishing you health and wellness!
I have taken a couple of C&Ps this year. The first time the doctor told me to bend or lift my arms until i felt pain. Three months later when I had to do everything all over again because my military situation changed the doctor told me to bend and lift as much as i can even through the pain. It hurt a lot but being in the military you just suck up the pain. I would think that one was correct and the other was not but I don't know which. Any thoughts? This was not covered in the video.
Very useful video. Is there a difference in normal range of motion value between goniometre and tape measure technique? I tried to search this online but cannot find the answer. Lots of pages indicate normal value for lumbar flexion as 60 to 90 degree..while others indicate 120 degree (which it is hard to achieve unless the person is super flexible? Or is this a different measurement unit ?) Thank you
Hello Carley - yes, when palpating for the 12th rib you can use the costal angle (most lateral portion) to line up your mobile arm. Thanks for watching and chiming in!
