A massage therapist is working in a wellness clinic. Her client is a marathon runner who wants to increase blood flow and “wake up” the leg muscles before a race that starts in about 90 minutes. Which massage techniques are most suitable for this pre-event goal?
A patient has a passive limitation in shoulder abduction, most noticeable when trying to raise the arm overhead (past about 90°) while the therapist stabilizes the scapula. The restriction feels like tightness along the posterior axilla/lateral trunk rather than the anterior chest. Which overly tight muscle is the most likely cause of this abduction restriction?
Correct
A.Deltoid muscle
B.Pectoralis major
C.Latissimus dorsi
D.Supraspinatus

A massage therapist is working in a wellness clinic. Her client is a marathon runner who wants to increase blood flow and “wake up” the leg muscles before a race that starts in about 90 minutes. Which massage techniques are most suitable for this pre-event goal?
The best pre-event approach is the choice describing gentle friction, rhythmic shaking (vibration), and invigorating tapotement because these techniques can stimulate local circulation and increase neuromuscular readiness without creating post-treatment soreness or fatigue. The choice mentioning deep tissue with cross-fiber friction is typically more intense and can increase tenderness or delayed soreness, which is not ideal close to an athletic event. Manual lymphatic drainage is primarily aimed at encouraging lymph movement and reducing edema; it is generally not the most direct method for rapidly energizing muscles for performance. Static muscle stretching may help flexibility, but it does not reliably provide the same immediate circulatory and stimulating effect as brisk, rhythmic pre-event massage techniques.

Why was "encourage oral fluids" wrong for the heart failure patient?
4:02 PM
Pia
In acute heart failure the lungs are already holding fluid, so extra fluids add to the load. Sit the patient upright, give oxygen, and expect a loop diuretic.
