Common Exercise Injuries
● Anecdotal increase in exercise-induced injuries with extreme exercise activitieso Obstacle raceso High-intensity interval workouts
Box-jumps, olympic-style lifts
● Injuries associated with exercise can be acute or insidious
Common Exercise Injuries
● Acuteo Upper & Lower Limb Strains & Sprains
● Chronico Tendinopathieso Enthesopathieso Joint instabilityo Distal clavicular osteolysis
Kinetic chain
Exercise injuries can be a result of or can result in abnormalities along the kinetic chain
Manual Manipulation
● Manual manipulation can treat the whole kinetic chain
● Techniques can be taught to your patients to improve the quality and focus of their home exercise programs
Definitions
Manual manipulation/therapyHands-on manipulation, mobilization or massage techniques involving articulations and/or soft tissues in order to modulate pain, alter range of motion, facilitate movement, and improve function.
Manual therapy
● Acupressure● Bodywork● Bowen technique● Chiropractic● Craniosacral therapy● Indian head massage● Lomilomi● Manual lymphatic drainage● Massage therapy● Naprapathy● Osteopathic medicine● Physical therapy● Rolfing structural integration● Shiatsu● Thai massage● Tui na● Watsu
Osteopathic Medicine
Definitions:
•Osteopathy = Osteopathic medicine
•Osteopathic manipulative medicine = OMM
•Osteopathic manipulative treatment/techniques = OMT
•Doctor of Osteopathy = DO
According to the World Osteopathic Health Organization, Osteopathy is a“…system of healthcare which relies on manual contact for diagnosis and treatment. It respects the relationship of body, mind and spirit in health and disease; it lays emphasis on the structural and functional integrity of the body and the body's intrinsic tendency for self-healing.”
Tenets of Osteopathy
● The body is a unito Understanding this concept allows the treatment of patients as
a functional whole.
● Structure and Function are interrelatedo According to AT Still, the founder of Osteopathy, “Disease is
the result of anatomical abnormalities followed by physiologic discord”
● The body possesses self-regulatory and self-healing mechanisms
● Rational treatment is based on applying these principles
Diagnosis
Somatic Dysfunction● Tissue Texture Changes
o Boggy/edematous, taught/hypertonic “knots”, ropy/fibrosed, atrophied, rigid, moist, dry
● Asymmetryo ‘Inspection’
● Restriction of motion = a deeper look at A/PROMo Named for FREEDOM Of MOTION
o Restricted motion is the BARRIER
● tendernesso Tenderpoints vs. Triggerpoints
Diagnosis
Physiatric Exam <-> Osteopathic Exam
Inspection <-> AsymmetryPalpation <-> Tissue texture and tendernessROM <-> Restriction of motionMotor, Sensory, ReflexesSpecial tests
Tissue Texture Changes
● Acuteo Edematous
o Erythematous
o Boggy
o Increased moisture
● Chronico No edema/erythema
o Cool dry skin
o Decreased muscle tone
o Flaccid, ropy, fibrotic
● Acute○ Acute MSK injuries○ OA exacerbation
● Chronic○ Atrophy in SCI/TBI/CVA○ Old OA
Asymmetry
● Posture● Scoliosis (kyphosis/lordosis,
levo-/dextro-) ● Side-to-side
● Mastoid
● Acromion
● Lower ribs
● Iliac crests
● Greater trochanters
● Lateral femoral condyles
● Lateral malleoli
Restriction of motion
● Orthopedic o Very Loose
● Rheumatologic o Very Restricted
● Somatic Dysfunction o Free in one direction + restricted in the other
Restriction of motion
● BARRIER stops motion
● FREEDOM Of MOTION is opposite the barrier
● Barriers
o Anatomical
o Physiological
o Restrictive
Osteopathic Manipulative Techniques
● Direct Techniqueso Engage (go into) the dysfunctional barrier
o Goal is moving through the barrier to restore normal motion
● Indirect Techniqueso Disengage (go away from) the barrier
o Using the path of least resistance
● Combined Techniqueso Begin indirect, then go direct
OMT
● Soft tissue mobilization / Articulatory Techniqueso Direct
● Myofascial Release (MFR)o Direct or Indirect
● Muscle Energy (contract-relax)o Direct
● Jones Counterstrain & FPRo Indirect
● High Velocity Low Amplitude (HVLA)o Direct
● Craniosacralo Direct or Indirect
Counterstrain
● Jones Counterstrain = passive indirect techniqueo Muscle being treated is positioned at a point of balance or
ease, away from the restrictive barrier.o “Fold and hold” for 90 sec
● This is a neurosensory approach to the treatment of tenderpoints.o Mimicking the original strain position -> reducing
aberrant afferent flow from the muscle spindle -> relaxes the muscle “spasm” associated with a tenderpoint
Facilitated Positional Release (FPR)
● Indirect technique● Place tissue in neutral position to diminish tissue/joint
tension in all planes● Add activating force (compression or distraction)● Takes 3-4 seconds to induce a release● Good for superficial muscles or deep intervertebral
muscles
Muscle Energy
● Muscle energy, also known as “contract-relax,” is a direct technique used to improve range of motion.
● This is a form of OMT in which the patient actively uses his/her muscles against the practitioner’s resistance.o Physician engages a barrier and holdso Patient is instructed to contract the muscle against
your holding force (Activating force)o Relaxo Engage a new barriero Repeat
Billing
● AMA CPT coding manual clearly states manipulation codes are NOT specialty- or profession-limiting● OMT not the same as Chiropractic Tx
(CMT)o Separate and distinct codes
● MDs & DOs can bill for OMT or CMT● CMT codes will not be covered here
Billing
1.Perform & document thorough H&P2.Perform & document diagnostic &
therapeutic intervention3.List ‘Somatic Dysfunction’ & the OMT
code4.List secondary diagnoses5.Use the -25 modifier on the E&M code
● This may only be possible if E&M is for a distinctly separate issue than what is being treated by manipulation
