TMR® Score Sheet
6
Quick Treatment Use the TMR® Score to subjectively grade both right and left side. Identify a “Good Side.” Perform 1 set of 10 on the “Good Side.” Retest both sides and rescore. Take note if the treatment made it better, worse, or same. Step 1 on worksheet If this worked, meaning it decreased your pain or increased your ROM then this worked via cross education
7
How Does This Work? this works via cross education or formally known as bilateral transfer. This is a component of a regional interdependent paradigm known as total motion release
8
What is TMR®? Restores and maintains allostasis by correcting bilateral ROM asymmetries (Dolanzo-Baker, totalmotionrelease.com). Indirect treatment strategy that utilizes active movement subjectively rated by the patient based off of pain, speed, stability of movement. Global approach to identify and restore bilateral asymmetries. Treatments are performed to the patient’s self-reported “good side”. Subjectively scored through six movements known as the FAB 6: Arm raise (AR) Arm press (AP) Trunk twist (TT) Leg raise (LR) Sit to stand (STS) Bent knee toe reach (BKTR) TMR® is an assessment and treatment. For those of you who got worse or stayed the same with the previous treatment, these next 6 exercises may help decrease your pain or increase ROM thru RI

Regional Interdependence
Theories of TMR® Cross Education Neural Coupling Tensegrity Mechano- transduction Regional Interdependence TMR Cross Education: formerly known as bilateral transfer. Neural Coupling: UE works with the LE within the neural network. R & L Tensegrity: Everything is connected within the body, specifically the fascial system (slings) RI: more elaborate, current version of kinetic chain or jandas crossed syndrome
11
Theories Behind TMR® Cross education
Cross education, previously known as bilateral transfer, is a motor learning effect that takes place in the contralateral homologous muscle and is not dependent on muscle groups, age or gender (Lee & Carroll, 2007). Unilateral resistance training may activate neural circuits and modify the efficacy of the motor pathway that project to the untrained limb. Unilateral resistance training activates adaptations in the motor areas of the trained limb. Neural coupling Is the interaction of electrical signals generated by the nervous system in relation to other nervous tissue and/or nerve fibers within the body. Example: Interaction of the neural network between the upper and lower limbs (Huang & Ferris, 2004, 2009). homologous: same muscle opposite side
12
Theories Behind TMR® Mechanotransduction Tensegrity
The process of converting mechanical forces to biochemical activity. Responses can be on the cellular level as well as the system/global level. Forces are transmitted uniformly and instantaneously throughout the entire organism (Levin, 2002). The body is comprised of a network of pre-tensed elements which pull towards the center of structures (Ingber, 2008). Tensegrity leads to an efficient structure both on the cellular and the total organism (Chen and Ingber, 1999). tensegrity example of fascial slings/tension are an example. force is being generated and transmitted across the entire body
13
Theories Behind TMR® Regional Interdependence (RI) The patient’s primary musculoskeletal symptoms may be directly or indirectly related to the impairments from body systems or segments, regardless of the proximity to the primary symptoms (Sueki et al., 2013; Sueki & Chaconas, 2011; Wainner et al., 2007). Relevant contributors to musculoskeletal disorders may not be as straightforward as depicted in the biomedical model (Wainner et al., 2007). Now that we discussed all these theories, some of you may be thinking how did TMR come about and how is it treating bilateral asymmetries?
14
Research in RI TMR® is inherently regional interdependent based.
Baseball pitchers with a bilateral total rotational of motion deficit greater than 5° are 2.5 times more likely to sustain a shoulder injury (Wilk et al, 2010). Overhead athletes generate mechanical forces from various body segments within their kinetic chain; disruption along the body segments (kinetic chain) increases the athlete's risk for sustaining an injury to their most distal segment (Hoeven & Kibler, 2006).

TMR® - Background Tom Dalonzo-Baker MPT
Manual therapy based Physical Therapist Background Strain counterstrain MDT McKenzie Method Mulligan Concept Logic for creating TMR® Range of motion (ROM) asymmetries in various body segments was a prominent issue in his clinical practice. Wanted to mimic activities of daily living.
16
Evolution of the TMR® System
Hips, knees, shoulders, and back were the four most common segments presenting with asymmetries. FAB 5 introduced in 2002. Walking, sitting, standing, going up and down stairs, and trunk rotation are activities of daily living that needed to be incorporated into TMR®. Fundamental movement sequence of life needed to be included into TMR®; seated, standing, supine, crawling. The system has evolved into the FAB 6. The system gets more complex with multi-planar movements which can be performed in the standing, seated, and lying positions. 3 levels of the TMR® system.

23
Lab Time Take 5 minutes to get changed if necessary.
24
TMR® FAB 6 Arm raise, arm press, trunk twist, SLR, Sit to stand, and the BKTR
25
TMR® Arm Raise Assessment:
Sit upright with both feet flat on the floor. Keeping your elbow straight, raise your arm in front of your body as high as you are able. Keep your body and head in a still position throughout the motion. Rate your left and right side using the TMR® Score. What is your good side? Step 2 on worksheet
26
TMR® Trunk Twist Assessment:
Sit upright without any support for your back and keep both feet flat on the floor. Place both hand over your stomach. Rotate towards one side as far as possible. Rate your left and right side using the TMR® Score. What is your good side?
27
TMR® Leg Raise Assessment:
Sit upright without any support for your back and keep both feet flat on the floor. Straighten your leg with your knee fully extended. While keeping your leg fully extended you’re going to bring your leg towards your stomach as far as possible. Rate your left and right side using the TMR® Score. What is your good side?
28
TMR® Sit to Stand Assessment:
Sit upright with both feet flat on the floor. Lift one foot off the ground. Your lifted foot may cross behind your planted foot. Utilizing your planted foot, stand up and then sit back down in a controlled motion. You may hold onto backrest to support your balance if needed. Rate your left and right side using the TMR® Score. What is your good side? We recommend sitting sideways on your chair, so if you need to use the backrest for assistance you can.
29
TMR® Bent Knee Toe Reach
Assessment: Stand in an upright position with both feet flat on the floor, shoulder with apart. Lift one foot a few inches off the ground. While keeping your foot off the ground, slowly bend your other knee, while lowering your body as far as possible. While lowering your body, reach out as far as possible with your lifted foot. You may hold onto backrest to support your balance if needed. Rate your left and right side using the TMR® Score. What is your good side?
30
TMR® Arm Press Assessment:
Stand in an upright position with both feet flat on the floor, shoulder width apart. Facing the wall, place your hand flat on the wall with your elbow extended, similar to a one handed push-up. You are going to step forward with your opposite leg. As you step forward begin to bend your elbow, go as far as possible and then come back to your starting position. Rate your left and right side using the TMR® Score. What is your good side? Step 3, arrange the order from highest to lowest difference
31
TMR® Treatment Treatment: Treat your good side. 2 set of 10 reps.
Reassess right and left side Note any changes in TMR® Score. TT, AR, AP, and LR can be done as a 30 second holds. Make sure repetitions/holds are done towards the end ROM. Don’t be picky about form. Step 4 on worksheet For those of you who stayed the same, maybe this treatment isn’t the most effective for the condition you have. You may need the multi planar FAB 6 movements or more sets and reps, etc. For those of you who got worse, sorry…. come see us after the course. But, for those of you who got better (show of hands) you may be wondering how did that work.
32
Summary Identify a painful or restricted movement to track during the treatment process. Rate it using the TMR® Score. TMR® Assessment: Rate your left and right side using the TMR® Score. What is your good side? TMR® Treatment: Treat the “good side.” May be performed in repetitions or holds. Reassess your painful or restricted movement (from step 1).
33
Clinical Pearls Assessment: “Monkey see, monkey do”
Don’t be picky about form Treatment: Releasing any restriction that is inhibiting your patient from obtaining full end range of movement. AR, TT, LR Make adjustments to fit your patients needs Avoid excessive repetitions Prescribe home exercise Robust treatment Regional interdependent treatment If time permits, do BOTT
