Physiology
3. Movement type
Syllabus
• Types of movement which can occur at the
previously named joints to include:
– Flexion, extension, plantar flexion, dorsi flexion,
abduction, adduction, pronation, supination,
elevation, depression, rotation, and circumduction
The Three Planes
Sagittal Plane - a vertical plane which
passes from front to rear dividing the body
into right and left sections
Frontal or lateral Plane - which passes
from side to side at right angles to the
sagittal plane which divide the body into a
front and back section
Transverse or horizontal Plane - a
horizontal plane which divides the body
into an upper and lower section
The Three Axis
Frontal Axis - passes from side to side at
right angles to the sagittal plane
Sagittal or Transverse Axis - passes
horizontally from front to rear lying at
right angles to the frontal plane
Longitudinal or Vertical Axis - passes
from head to foot at right angles to the
transverse plane

Types of Movement
Types of Movement
Movement at Joints
• Gliding
– Back and forth and side to side
– Little change in angle between bones
Angular Movement
• Flexion
– Decrease angle
– Sagittal plane
• Lateral flexion
– Movement of trunk
– Frontal plane
• Extension
– Increase angle
– Sagittal plane
• Hyperextension
– Beyond anatomical
position
Angular Movement
• Abduction
– Away from midline
– Frontal plane
• Adduction
– Toward midline
– Frontal plane
• Circumduction
– Distal end of a body part
moves in a circle
• Rotation
– Movement of a bone
around its longitudinal
axis
Special Movement
• Elevation
• Protraction
– Transverse plane
• Depression
• Retraction
– Transverse plane
Special Movement
• Inversion
– Medial movement
• Eversion
– Lateral movement
• Dorsiflexion
– Bending of foot in
direction of superior
surface
• Plantar flexion
– Bending of foot in
direction of sole
