Ligamentous Articular Strain (LAS) 08.

Ligamentous Articular Strain (LAS) is an osteopathic technique aimed at treating joint dysfunction by addressing strain in the ligaments and surrounding tissues. Here’s how it works and some key techniques:
1. Diagnosis: Identify areas of ligamentous strain and dysfunction through palpation and motion testing.
2. Indirect Technique: The affected joint is gently positioned to reduce tension in the ligaments, allowing for natural healing and realignment.
3. Balancing: The practitioner holds the joint in a balanced position until a release is felt, indicating reduced strain and improved function.
This technique promotes healing by improving joint mobility and reducing pain.
