Indication : Training a new muscle action When isolation of one muscle indicated To re-educate muscle action Example: Vastus medialis stimulated in quadriceps lag Abductor hallucis in ms weakness Technique of Stimulation Of The Motor Points Prepare apparatus and patient Indifferent electrode: at suitable area The active electrode :may be disc electrode and hold in between the index finger, middle finger with the support of the thumb. Technique of Stimulation Of The Motor Points Electrode placed on the motor point to be stimulated firmly Advantage of firm contact: Firm contact ensure minimum discomfort. A suitable duration and frequency of surge must be selected. Gradually intensity of the current are increase for a visible contraction followed by relaxation of the muscle Duration of the treatment Pt. Can concentrate on the movement & assist in its production Should not exceed to fatigue the muscles. Fatigue occur less frequently with faradic Sites of motor points Motor points are frequently present at junction of upper and middle one-thirds of the fleshy belly of the muscle Deeply placed muscles are stimulated where they emerge from beneath the more superficial ones Example: EHL, in lower one third of the lower leg Motor Point Of The Facial Nerve Motor Points Of The Anterior Aspect Of Arm Motor Point Of Hand Motor Points Of Posterior Aspect Of The Right Arm Motor Points Of Posterior Aspect Of The Right Hand Motor Points Of Anterior Aspect Of The Leg Motor Points Of Posterior Aspect Of The Leg MOTOR POINTS OF THE BACK Stimulation Of The Group Of Muscles Stimulation which makes all the muscles of a group work together is a satisfactory method of re-educating the action of a muscle. Quadriceps, small muscles of the foot muscles of the pelvic floor. Stimulation Of The Group Of Quadriceps Muscles Stimulation Of The Group Of Lumbrical Muscles Stimulation Of The Group Of Muscles
