This document discusses the classification and principles of movements. It defines movement and classifies them into two main categories: passive movements and active movements. Passive movements involve relaxed movement or manual mobilization while active movements are voluntary or involuntary muscle contractions. Voluntary active movements are further divided into free movements against gravity, assisted movements with external help, assisted-resisted movements combining assistance and resistance, and resisted movements against external force. The document outlines techniques and effects of each type of movement, such as improving joint mobility, muscle tone, and coordination.

3. Definition
• Movement is a fundamental characteristic
of all animal life and the means by which
the organism adapts itself to the demands
made upon it by the environment in which
it lives.

4. Classification
• Passive Movement
• Active Movement

5. Passive movement
• Relaxed passive movement including
accesory movemnts
• Passive manual mobilisation techniques.

6. Active Movements
• Voluntary-Assisted,Free,Assisted-Resisted
& Resisted
• Involuntary-Reflex

7. Active exercise
Definition
Movement performed or controlled by the
voluntary action of muscles, working in
opposition to an external force.

8. Classication
• Free exs : the working muscles are
subject on ly to the forces of gravity acting
upon the part moved or stabillised.
• Assisted exs : whwn muscle strength or
co-ordination is inadequate to perform a
movement an external force is applied to
compensate fo rthe deficiency.

9. • Assisted Ressisted exs : muscles may
be strong enough to work against
resistance in part of the range and not in
others.this type of exercise ensures that
the external force applied are adapted in
every part of the range to the abilities of
the muscles.
• Ressisted exs : forces of resitance
offered to the action of the working
muscles. Satish k Pimpale

10. Classisfication of free exs
According to the extent of area
• localised and general
According to particular :
• Subjective and Objective

11. Technique of Free exs
• Positioning
• Instruction
• Speed
• Duration

12. Effects & Uses
• Relaxation
• joint mobility
• muscle power and tone
• neuromuscular coordination
• confidence
• circulatory and respiratory co-operation

13. Assisted exs
• starting position repetitions
• pattern of movement co-operation
• fixation
• support
• the antagonists mucle
• traction
• the assisting force
• the character of the movement

14. Effects & uses
• strenthening
• restore balance of muscle power
• increased blood flow
