Special Notes

  • 60 to 70% of neck rotation are happening between C1 and C2
  • The rest is distributed between the other cervical vertebrae but also includes the upper thoracic vertebrae TIP
  • Passive ROM often goes quite a bit further than AROM as the testing conditions are different (standing vs supine)
  • In supine the head and neck of the client are usually more relaxed. Do not confuse this fact with a NO-YES scenario
