B) Stabilize the calcaneus and plantar glide the cuboid. 
C) Stabilize the talus and dorsal glide the navicular. 
D) Stabilize the talus and laterally glide the calcaneus. 
A) Stabilize the cuneiforms and plantar glide metatarsals I, II, and III. 
B) Stabilize the calcaneus and plantar glide the cuboid.

Question 10

Which of the following is a false statement about joint mobilization?

Accepted Answer

A) When the therapist passively moves the articulating surface in the direction in which the slide of the bone normally occurs, the technique is called glide. 
B) Gliding or traction techniques are used to treat painful symptoms during the acute and early subacute stages when applied at a low, nonstretch dosage. 
C) Joint mobilization is safer than passive angular stretching through an arc motion because it avoids the compressive forces that occur during passive angular stretching through the range. 
D) Grade III joint techniques can be used safely and effectively to increase the range of motion (ROM) during an acute flare of arthritis when there is loss of motion.
