suggest created a 2nd cloze bc i can remember this card and still easily get a question wrong on what reciprocal inhibition actually is. i just had a truelearn SA question on this, and the qeustion asked you to describe the direction the patient resists when doing this technique

- i.e. treating a patient with a flexion dysfunction of the left bicep by flexing the left elbow away from the restrictive barrier with the patient asked to contract the triceps against resistance
- Post-isometric muscle energy is the most common form of the muscle energy technique
- Reciprocal inhibition is different and causes relaxation of the agonist muscle through contraction of the antagonist muscle; this can be done both directly and indirectly
