The Shoulder Flexion Test measures how far the arm lifts forward and overhead. It can be assessed actively or passively using a goniometer, inclinometer, smartphone tool or consistent ROM workflow. The result helps track overhead movement, compare sides and add context to pressing, reaching, throwin...

The Neck Extension Test measures how far the head and neck move backwards. It is usually assessed actively in sitting using a CROM device, inclinometer or smartphone tool. The result helps track cervical movement and symptoms over time, but it should be interpreted with pain response, dizziness, hea...

The Spine Lateral Flexion Test measures side-bending movement of the trunk and spine. It can be recorded using an inclinometer, tape measure, fingertip-to-thigh distance or another standardised method. The result helps monitor spinal movement and symptoms over time, but it should be interpreted with...

The Slump Test assesses symptom response during combined spinal flexion, knee extension and ankle movement. It is often used to explore neural mechanosensitivity or low-back-related leg symptoms, but it is not a stand-alone diagnostic test. The result should be recorded with symptom location, sympto...

The Hip Abduction Test measures how far the thigh moves away from the body’s midline. It is useful for assessing frontal-plane hip mobility, comparing sides, monitoring symptoms and adding context to lateral movement, cutting, stepping and change-of-direction tasks.

Introduction

Hip abduction is t...

The Spine Extension Test measures backward bending movement through the spine and trunk. It can be recorded using an inclinometer, smartphone tool, tape method or standardised observation. The result helps monitor movement and symptoms over time, but it should be interpreted with pain response, hip ...

The Spine Flexion Test measures forward bending movement through the spine and trunk. It can be recorded using an inclinometer, tape measure, fingertip-to-floor distance or another standardised method. The result helps monitor movement, symptoms and progress over time, but it should be interpreted w...

The Supine Hip External Rotation Test measures how far the hip rotates outward while the client lies on their back. It can be assessed actively or passively using a goniometer or inclinometer. The result helps compare sides, track progress and add context to squatting, sitting positions, cutting, ga...

The Hip Adduction Test measures how far the thigh moves toward or across the body’s midline. It can be assessed actively or passively using a goniometer, inclinometer or consistent ROM workflow. The result helps compare sides and track change in hip movement, especially when interpreted alongside pa...

The Supine Hip Internal Rotation Test measures how far the hip rotates inward while the client lies on their back. It can be measured actively or passively with the hip and knee flexed to a standard position. The result helps compare sides and add context to hip mobility, squatting, gait, running, c...

The Hip Extension Test measures how far the thigh moves behind the body. It is useful for assessing hip mobility, comparing sides, monitoring symptoms and tracking progress over time.

Introduction

Hip extension range of motion is relevant to walking, running, sprinting, lunging, bridging, climbing...

The Hip Flexion Test measures how far the thigh moves toward the trunk. It is useful for assessing hip mobility, comparing sides, recording symptoms and monitoring change over time.

Introduction

Hip flexion range of motion is used across movement, rehabilitation, performance and fitness settings. ...
