Presented by

UNDERSTANDING PLANES & AXES OF MOVEMENT

The body performs movements through a plane

and around an axis.

Presented by

UNDERSTANDING PLANES & AXES OF MOVEMENT

A plane is an imaginary flat surface along which a

movement takes place.

Presented by

UNDERSTANDING PLANES & AXES OF MOVEMENT

SAGITTAL PLANE

A vertical plane of the body which passes from

front to rear dividing the body into two

symmetrical halves.

Presented by

UNDERSTANDING PLANES & AXES OF MOVEMENT

TRANSVERSE PLANE

Any horizontal plane of the body which is

parallel to the diaphragm; also called

the horizontal plane.

Presented by

UNDERSTANDING PLANES & AXES OF MOVEMENT

FRONTAL PLANE

Plane of the body which passes from side to side

at right angles to the sagittal plane; also called

the coronal plane.

Presented by

UNDERSTANDING PLANES & AXES OF MOVEMENT

An axis is an imaginary line about which the body (or

limb) rotates.

Presented by

UNDERSTANDING PLANES & AXES OF MOVEMENT

FRONTALHORIZONTAL AXIS

Axis of the body that passes horizontally from

side to side at right angles to the sagittal

plane.

VERTICAL AXIS

Axis of the body that passes from head to foot

at right angles to the transverse plane.

SAGITTALHORIZONTAL AXIS

Axis of the body that passes from front to rear

lying at right angles to the frontal plane.

Physical activity ismade possible by

movements and motions.

Presented by

UNDERSTANDING PLANES & AXES OF MOVEMENT

Every movementtakes place in one plane and

around one axis.

Presented by

UNDERSTANDING PLANES & AXES OF MOVEMENT

They are also categorized by movement type.

FLEXION &EXTENSION

Presented by

UNDERSTANDING PLANES & AXES OF MOVEMENT

FLEXION takes place when the angle decreases between the two

bones attached to a joint.

Presented by

UNDERSTANDING PLANES & AXES OF MOVEMENT

EXTENSIONtakes place when the angle

between the two bones attached to a joint increases.

Presented by

UNDERSTANDING PLANES & AXES OF MOVEMENT

HYPEREXTENSIONoccurs when a joint is overstretched (or bent backwards) because of

an exaggerated extension motion.

Presented by

UNDERSTANDING PLANES & AXES OF MOVEMENT

Both flexion and extension occur in the sagittal plane about the frontal

axis.

ADDUCTION &ABDUCTION

Presented by

UNDERSTANDING PLANES & AXES OF MOVEMENT

ADDUCTION is a movement laterally

toward the middle of the body.

Presented by

UNDERSTANDING PLANES & AXES OF MOVEMENT

ABDUCTION is a movement laterally away from the middle of the body.

Presented by

UNDERSTANDING PLANES & AXES OF MOVEMENT

Both adduction and abduction

occur in the frontal plane

about the sagittal axis.

ROTATION

Presented by

UNDERSTANDING PLANES & AXES OF MOVEMENT

INTERNAL ROTATION takes place when the front

part of the body part rotates towards the middle

(midline) of the body.

Presented by

UNDERSTANDING PLANES & AXES OF MOVEMENT

EXTERNAL ROTATION takes place when the front

part of the body part rotates away from the middle(midline) of the body.

Presented by

UNDERSTANDING PLANES & AXES OF MOVEMENT

Rotation (internal and external)

occur in the transverse plane

about the vertical axis.
