The four muscles in the anterior compartment are called rectus femoris, vastus medialis,…
The location is in the middle and center of the neck. This cartilage provides connection to different ligaments, cartilages, and muscles that open and shut the air passage and creates the production of sound. 3. After cutting through the muscular structures even more, different muscles appeared such as the cricothyroid, posterior cricoid arytenoid, transverse arytenoid, and the interaryenoids. a. The cricothyroid originates on the cricoid cartilage and inserts on the thyroid cartilage.…
The next journal article called, “Immediate Effect of Laryngeal Manual Therapy in Dysphonic Individuals”, focused on investigating the immediate effect of Laryngeal Manual Therapy (LMT) in musculoskeletal pain, in voice, and sensations of individuals with and without functional dysphonia. Individuals with this type of dysphonia suffer from pain of extrinsic laryngeal muscles and postural changes. Typically, the treatment for this type of dysphonia included laryngeal massages and postural changes of the neck and shoulder. Furthermore, this type of treatment was referred as manual therapy. Additionally, the benefits of manual therapy have been extensively researched in the past.…
1. The major surface muscles include the following: Trapezius, Deltoids, latissimus dorsi, Pectoralis major, Biceps, Triceps, Rectus femoris, bicep femoris, semitendinosus, Gluteus muscles, abdominals, Lateral Gastrocnemius, serratus dorsi, external oblique, and soleus. Trapezius- Origin: Upper: Base of skull, Occipital protuberance and posterior ligaments of neck.…
(a) The structure of the rotator cuff consists of four muscles that all play a role in the motion of the rotator cuff. The four muscles that are responsible for this motion are: the Supraspinatus muscle, the Infraspinatus muscle, the Teres Minor muscle, and the Subscapularis muscle. Each of these muscles originate from the scapula and attach into the humerus. The Supraspinatus muscle originates in the Supraspinatus Fossa and attaches to the greater tubercle of the humerus. The infraspinatus originates in the Infraspinatus Fossa and like the Supraspinatus muscle, attaches to the greater tubercle of the humerus.…
The superior laryngeal and the recurrent laryngeal nerves carry nerve impulses to the laryngeal nerves. The recurrent laryngeal nerves innervates all the intrinsic muscles of the larynx except for the cricothyroid. The recurrent laryngeal nerve is not symmetrical on the right and left side. The recurrent laryngeal nerve descends to the chest then go up to the…
Its insertion is at the anterior part of the iliac crest and the abdominal aponeurosis to linea alba. The internal oblique’s origin is the lateral inguinal ligament, the iliac crest and the thoracolumbar fascia. Its insertion is on the internal surface of the lower three ribs and the abdominal aponeurosis to linea alba. These muscles flex the vertebral column. Psoas major origin is at the bodies and transverse process of the lumbar vertebrae.…
Daniel Ward Professor Meyers English 111 5 October 2015 Cavity-Back Versus Muscle-Back Could game improvement irons be preventing individuals from becoming a better ball striker? The game improvement concept that originated in the 1980s has offered a new style of golf club head called a cavity-back. The sole purpose of the cavity-back iron design is to combine forgiveness and playability for the average golfer and to lower one’s scores quickly. Traditionally, the muscle-back iron design requires a better swing and is not very forgiving however, it gives one more control and a softer feel. Muscle-backs gained their nickname from the original blade style iron, which were hand forged by a blacksmith over 150 years ago.…
As mentioned in the paragraph above, a variety of muscles play a key role in the respiratory process. Muscles are subdivided into primary and accessory muscles. For the function of inhalation certain muscles are used. The primary muscles of inhalation (breathing in) are the diaphragm and the intercostal muscles.…
Appendicular muscles help the pelvic girdles, pectoral girdles, and the limbs. The appendicular muscles stabilize and positions the pectoral/pelvic girdles producing movement to the upper and lower limbs. The two major groups of appendicular muscles consist of the muscles of the shoulders/upper limbs and the muscles of the pelvis/lower limbs. Muscles of the shoulders and upper limbs are divided into four categories: muscles that position the pectoral girdle, muscles that move the arm, muscles that move the forearm/hand, and muscles that move the hand/fingers. Muscles that position the pectoral girdle include: trapezius (it is superficial covering the back and neck up to the base of the skull inserting on the clavicles and scapular spines), rhomboid/levator scapulae (it is deep to the trapezius attaching to cervical/thoracic vertebrae inserting on the scapular border), serratus anterior (located on the chest originating along the ribs inserting on anterior scapular margin), subclavius (originates on the ribs and inserts on the clavicle), and pectoralis minor (attaches to the scapula).…
Surgical vs. Non-Surgical Neck Lift A neck lift (lower rhytidectomy) is a procedure designed to improve the visible signs of aging. This surgical procedure is used to reduce the visible signs of aging on the lower face and neck. Why Patients Choose to Have a Neck lift Some patients may not want a full facelift because they are happy with the upper portion of their face; however, they might notice that they have issues on their neck and lower portion of the face.…
Oral Mechanism Exam Summaries 11.01.17 Oral Mechanism Exam (Age: 7) Overall expression, appearance, and size of Alissa’s facial features appeared symmetrical and within normal limits (WNL). The lips were parted at rest and function was adequate as evidenced by the ability to press, purse, and retract her lips. Jaw mobility was sufficient. The appearance and size of her tongue at rest were symmetrical and WLN; mobility of the tongue was WNL as evidenced by the ability to lateralize the tongue, elevate the tongue, lick lips with tongue, move the tongue independently from the jaw, and sweep palate from the alveolar ridge with tongue. The length of the lingual frenulum was also WNL.…
Pre-Course IPE Paper Speech-Language Pathologists and Audiologists are two professions that must work with many different professions across the many different settings—hospitals, clinics, or schools. The first assigned reading brings many questions up about Speech Pathologists and Audiologists working with other health-care professions. Ultimately, the goal of each profession working with each other is the health and well-being of the patient.…
Stretching your muscles before a workout is always beneficial, but especially so when getting ready to perform back muscles exercises. Stretching loosens up the muscles in your back enabling you to perform those exercises for back muscles more intensely without risking possible injury. Building up the back muscles can be very difficult. It will consume a great deal of your energy. Targeting the muscles is also difficult because they are out of view.…
Myoelastic-aerodynamic theory is the term used to describe the way that the vocal folds vibrate. The theory consists of an interaction of muscle forces (myo), elastic recoil forces (elastic), and aerodynamic forces. I will now describe the myoelastic-aerodynamic theory using the following diagram. Diagram A starts on the exhalation phase and the vocal folds are in phonatory position. The vocal folds are contracted by the Interarytenoids and the Lateral cricoid arytenoids.…
