    Muscle Energy Technique (MET)
    Strain-Counterstrain
    Active Release Technique (ART)
    Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF)
    30s
  • Q4
    In muscle energy technique, what does the term 'counterstrain' refer to?
    Forcing a joint beyond its normal range of motion
    Dynamic stretching of the muscle
    Applying deep pressure to release trigger points
    Position of comfort that is opposite to the restricted barrier
    30s
  • Q5
    Which muscle energy technique involves the patient actively contracting a specific muscle against a resistance applied by the therapist for a short duration?
    Cross Friction Massage
    Graston Technique
    Isotonic Contraction
    Press-and-lean Technique
    30s
  • Q6
    What is the primary goal of muscle energy techniques in physiotherapy?
    To induce muscle hypertrophy
    To decrease joint stability
    To promote quick muscle fatigue
    To improve muscle function, increase range of motion, and reduce pain

  • Q7
    Which muscle energy technique involves the patient contracting a specific muscle while the therapist resists the movement for a short duration?
    Isometric Contraction
    Strain-Counterstrain
    Active Release Technique (ART)
    Passive Range of Motion (PROM)
    30s
  • Q8
    Which muscle energy technique involves the therapist applying a counterforce to a specific muscle while the patient holds an isometric contraction in the opposite direction?
    Reciprocal Inhibition
    Post-Isometric Relaxation (PIR)
    Joint Mobilization
    Cross Friction Massage
    30s
  • Q9
    In muscle energy technique, what is the purpose of the therapist applying a counterforce to the patient's muscle contraction?
    To limit muscle movement and reduce range of motion
    To intensify muscle contraction and induce fatigue
    To enhance muscle relaxation and increase joint mobility
    To trigger muscle spasm and discomfort
    30s
  • Q10
    Which of the following muscle energy techniques involves the therapist passively moving a joint to its restrictive barrier, followed by the patient's isometric contraction in the opposite direction for a few seconds?
    Reciprocal Inhibition
    Strain-Counterstrain
    Active Release Technique (ART)
    Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF)
    30s
  • Q11
    What is the purpose of muscle energy technique in physiotherapy?
    To induce muscle hypertrophy
    To improve cardiovascular fitness
    To correct musculoskeletal dysfunctions
    To enhance cognitive function
