The Neck Lateral Flexion Test measures how far the head and neck side-bend to the left and right. It is usually assessed actively in sitting using a CROM device, inclinometer or smartphone tool. The result helps compare sides and monitor symptoms over time, but it should be interpreted with shoulder...
The Neck Rotation Test measures how far the head and neck turn left and right. It is usually assessed actively in sitting using a CROM device, inclinometer, compass-based smartphone tool or consistent clinical process. The result helps compare sides, monitor symptoms and track progress across sessio...
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 Spine Rotation Test measures trunk rotation to the left and right. It can be assessed in seated, standing or lumbar-locked positions using an inclinometer, smartphone, goniometer, tape measure or observation. The result helps compare sides and monitor movement over time, but it should be interpr...
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 Modified Thomas Test assesses hip extension position and anterior hip or thigh length response while the client lies at the edge of a table. It can provide useful information about hip flexor and rectus femoris length, but pelvic position must be controlled carefully. The result should be re...
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. ...
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 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 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 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 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 ...
