Hip and shoulder deviation

Subject position. Subject facing the operator, standing in a natural position, with feet apart, arms dangling. The subject looks far away in front of him.

Operator's role. Facing the subject, squatting to have eyes at hip level.

Examination procedure. Grab the subject's wrists, thumbs on the radial styloïds, and join the subject wrists in front of him. Check the shoulder deviation that shows at finger level.

The subject looks again in front of him with arms dangling. The operator puts his hands on the hip bone top and checks whether a height deviation shows.

Shoulder rotations

                              

Subject position. Subject facing the operator, standing in a natural position, with feet apart, arms dangling. The subject looks far away in front of him.

Operator's role. Facing the subject at a two step distance, ask the subject to look into your eyes.

Examination procedure. Ask the subject to stretch his fingers and to raise his arms up to horizontal position without moving shoulders. Subject and Operator do not look at the arm motion. Operator blocks the subject's hands and checks whether they are aligned or if one is in front of the other.

Impact on subject's strength

Operator's role. The operator stands in front of the subject, who stretches his arms in front of him, hands palms up. Put one hand under the subject's wrist, while the other hand presses the palm on the back of the subject's hand. Get close enough to the subject to be in a position to pull efficiently.

Examination procedure. Progressively pull the subject's hand downwards while maintaining the arm horizontal. Ask the subject to resist as much as he can. Pull, up to the point where the hand is pulled down. The operator and the subject evaluate the resistance sensation

Note. The studies have shown an average 20% strength improvement with Biotonix®.

Head rotation

Subject position. Subject with his back turned to the operator.

Operator's role. Standing behind the subject, grab the subject shoulders firmly but without a tight grip, just to block the shoulders.

Examination procedure. Ask the subject to turn his head as much as he can, without moving the shoulders. Ask the question "what can you see ? My hand, my elbow or my head ?." Check that the rotation of the head is better with Biotonix®.
