Towel-rolled fulcrum for quadruped rock to assist knee flexion

27/6/2017

0 Comments

 
Purpose:
Create increased knee flexibility through gapping/stretching the knee joint capsule.

Description:
Start in quadruped, with a towel rolled up and placed directly behind the knee, between the calf and thigh. 
Sit back over the towel as low as possible, with bi-basal breathing. 
Maintain weight bearing on the hands to moderate the weight going through the knee.

Implications:
​Creating a more flexible knee joint capsule may be necessary for those with flexion dysfunction and/or tibial rotation dysfunction, not to mention the benefits of enhancing a sensory richer knee joint for detection of strain.
