Stoop standing
Fallout Standing
One leg is placed directly
forwards to a distance of
three foot-lengths
and this knee is bent; the
back leg remains straight
and the body is inclined
forward in line with it.
Lunge positions are
similar with regarding
to the position of the
legs,
but the body always
remains in a vertical
position.
Half Kneeling
One knee supports
most of the body
weight and the other
leg is bent to a right
angle at hip, knee and
angle so that the foot
is supported on the
ground in a forward
direction
Half kneeling
The knees and hip are
flexed so that the
patient sits on his
heels. The position is
some time used for
small children, but
most people find it
very uncomfortable
3. Prone Kneeling
The Trunk is Horizontal, supported under the
Shoulders by the arms, and at the pelvis by
the thighs, which must be held vertical. The
head is head in line with the trunk
Crook sitting
Hip is flexed
Knee is extended and
resting on the floor
5. Cross Sitting
This is also similar to crook sitting, but the
ankles are crossed and hips strongly
abducted and laterally rotated, so that the
lateral aspect of knees is pressed to the floor.
For left side sitting the left
leg remains as in cross
sitting and this hip
supports the main
weight of the trunk, while
the right leg is abducted
and medially rotated so that
the lower leg is bent and to
the side.
8.Stoop Sitting
This is similar to but
easier and more stable
than stoop standing
position.
The arms may be folded
and supported on a table
allowing the back
muscles to relax.
position is same as
fallout standing except
that the hip and thigh
of the forward leg are
supported across a
stool, balance is
therefore easier and
the patient is able to
concentrate on
movements, which may
be added
