What is the curvature of the spine at birth? - ANSWERkyphosis (primary curve)
--- includes cervical, thoracic, Lumbar, and Sacral region
What is the curvature of the spine at the Neonatal perior? - ANSWERLordosis of
cervical spine (secondary curve)
--- head control and cervical extensor muscles develop

(more secondary curve)
--- standing & walking, back muscles develop

lordosis increases
--- Thoracic kyphosis decreases

What is a kypholordotic curve? - ANSWERexaggerated outward curve of the thoracic
vertebrae; results in compensation of a lordosis curve in the lumbar and cervical
region
What is a lordotic curve? - ANSWERexaggerated inward curve in the lumbar region;
compensation in the thoracic region
What is the military curve? - ANSWERanterior tilt of pelvis (pulls head back)
, What is the swayback curve? - ANSWERposterior tilt of pelvis; results in more
kyphosis in lumbar spine, and lordosis in cervical spine (pushes head forward)
What is the flat back curve? - ANSWERno curvature to thoracic or lumbar vertebrae,
cervical spine are more lordotic (head tilts down)
What is a transition zone? - ANSWERWhere curves reverse are commonly
susceptible to somatic dysfunction
What are the 4 locations of transition zones? - ANSWER1) occipito-cervical
2) Cervico-thoracic
3) thoraco-lumbar
4) lumbo-sacro
What 3 changes indicated a transition zone? - ANSWER1) Bony changes to the
vertebrae
2) Changes in the sagittal plane
3) Muscular & fascial changes
What are the 4 ranges of motion of the spine? (R.E.F.S.) - ANSWER1) Rotation
2) Extension
3) Flexion
4) Sidebending = lateral flexion
