Types of movement (synovial joints) ● ● ● Starting point is anatomical position Comes in pairs ○ Flexion and Extension (sagittal plane except lateral flexion) ○ Abduction and adduction (coronal plane) ○ Medial- lateral rotation Hypertension = moving past the resting point (over exaggeration of the movement) Term Definition Example/way to remember it Flexion Decreasing the angle of joint Flexing biceps Extension Increasing the angle of joint Note: Anatomical position starts here Abduction (Aliens abduct) Take away from the midline of the body Abducted by aliens → spread fingers apart Adduction (add back to the body) To add back to anatomical position Add to the body → bring fingers back together Medial Towards the midsagittal plane The heart is medial to the right and left lung Lateral Away from the midsagittal plane The ears are lateral to the nose Dorsiflexion Raising the foot towards the shin Flexing Plantarflexion (plants grow on the ground) Movement of the foot away from the body Pointing Inversion Plantar surface of the foot turns medially Rolling onto the little toe side Eversion Plantar surface of the foot turns laterally Rolling onto the big toe side Elevation Movement in a superior direction Raising shoulders Depression Movement in an inferior direction Moving shoulders downwards Pronation ‘bow’ (HANDS ONLY NOT WRIST) Hand rotates to showing palms down Supination (HANDS ONLY NOT WRIST) Hand rotates to showing palms up Rotation Part of the body is twisted → transverse plane Rotating the hip joint Circumduction Circular movement of the body, one part stays still while the other moves 360° Movement in multiple planes Loose ligaments = highest degree of movement Head rolls Opposition (thumb) Type of flexion and extension where the thumb moves across the palm to touch the other fingers Reposition (thumb) After opposition, moving the thumb back to anatomical position
