Hi guys how do you guide the patients to check range of motion. For example:
Shoulder
Extension...
Flexion..
Abduction
Aduction
External rotation
Internal rotation
Elevation
Sounds easy for me to say "do this please" while I am extending my shoulder.
Input please

yeah u can either demonstrate wat u want him or her to do OR just say can u move ur hands away from ur body , towards the body now move around ur shoulder in circular fashion or something like that.... thats for shoulder, like wise for other joints u can tell them wat to do if thjey cant understand wat u talking just demonstrate.... wat u can do is ask him to do both hands, legs together ( i mean right & left ) so u dont lose time and also can compare at same time .....
