RE-UPLOAD: Rib Movement | Coupled with Lateral Flexion & Rotation

The video tutorial explores the mechanics of the thoracic spine and rib movements, focusing on lateral flexion and rotation. It explains the role of Costovertebral and Costotransverse joints in rib articulation and movement. Lateral flexion involves type one mechanics, where lateral flexion and rotation occur in opposite directions. The video details the effects of right lateral flexion on rib space and movement, including anterior and posterior glides. It also covers rotation mechanics, where rotation and lateral flexion occur in the same direction, affecting rib approximation and separation.
