Elbow Joint Mobilization Technique Quiz

Elbow Joint Movement

• When localizing movement to the elbow joint, the forearm is in a neutral position, parallel to the coronal plane.
• The hand grasping above the elbow during movement helps to stabilize the arm and isolate the movement to the elbow joint.

Natural Arm Movement

• The recommended approach for natural movements of the arm as a whole involves allowing the shoulder to rotate and the scapula to move freely.
• This approach ensures a smooth and coordinated movement of the entire arm.

Elbow Joint Extension

• When ensuring full extension at the elbow joint, consider the alignment of the arm and the movement of the forearm.
• Avoid any restrictions or obstacles that may prevent full extension, such as muscle tension or external resistance.
