AXIS, , It can be defined as any imaginary poit or line around which, movements take place. Axis is of three types., , A] Sagittal Axis :, , ‘ 7 Is an imaginary line passing from the anterior to posterior, direction. :, , B] Lateral Axis :, , It is an imaginary line passing laterally from one side to other, [right or left] or [left or right], , C] Vertical Axis :, , It is an imaginary line perpendicular to the ground., PLANES, , It is an imaginary surface through which a movement takes, place. There are three planes of motion. Each plane goes through, the center of mass [gravity], , A) Sagittal Plane:, , This is a vertical plane passing through the body from front to, back. This divides the body in to right and left symmetrical halves., Walking, running and moves you forward and backward are the, example of sagittal plane. Movements around the plane are, , e Flexion: Decreases of angle, bones come together., e Extension: Increase in angle, straightening motion., , e Hyper extension: Are the joint movement of sagittal plane., , B) Frontal Plane:, , known as the lateral or coronal plane, The frontal plane, also Das rowan, , ; . . . idi, passing through the body from side to side, divi, back halves. penis side to side and jumping jacks are the exam, , Ple of frontal plane. Movements around the plane are
