Relaxed Shoulders —> Avoids carniocervical overload + Ensure blood supply Deep diaphragmatic breathing —> 02 to the entire body —> Avoid fatigue. # Slow, smooth movements are less harmful and allow greater movement control. When bending the elbow —> Tendency to bend the waist and “get settled” in the lumbar region. Advantages of an appropriate corporal mechanics: -Control of direction, force and rhythm of the movements -Energy saving -Less biomechanic stress in the PT’s body # -Efficient breathing -Relaxation “extensible” to the patient.
