The Hubscher Manoeuvre or Jack’s Test is a method of evaluating the flexibility of a pes cavus. It is also used to determine the timing and force needed to initiate Windlass.

The test is performed with the patient weight bearing while the clinician dorsiflexes the hallux and watches for the formation of an arch.

RESULTS

Positive: Arch formation or results from the flatfoot being flexible.
Negative: Lack of arch formation or results from the flatfoot being rigid.

ORTHOTIC ADJUSTMENT

If test shows;
Delayed timing: add padding under the Hallux and/or use a heel raise.
High force for flexion of the Hallux: use a 1st Ray Cut Out.

Quadratus Lumborum Syndrome
QL syndrome refers to pain and dysfunction originating from the quadratus lumborum muscle, which can mimic low back, sacroiliac, or even hip pain.



📍 Anatomy Recap (QL Muscle):
• Origin: Iliac crest and iliolumbar ligament
• Insertion: 12th rib and transverse processes of L1–L4
• Action:
• Lateral trunk flexion (unilateral)
• Trunk extension (bilateral)
• Fixation of 12th rib during respiration



🔴 Clinical Features:
• Deep aching pain in the lower back (unilateral or bilateral)
• Referred pain to:
• Iliac crest
• Sacroiliac joint
• Gluteal area
• Greater trochanter
• Pain worsens with:
• Prolonged standing/sitting
• Lateral flexion
• Walking
• Possible pelvic asymmetry
• Palpable myofascial trigger points in the QL



🧪 Assessment in PT:

Subjective:
• Dull, nagging pain around lower back or hip
• History of lifting, trauma, poor posture, or leg length discrepancy

Objective:
• Palpation: Tenderness or trigger points in QL
• Positive Trendelenburg (if glute med is also weak)
• Limited lateral flexion to opposite side
• Check pelvic alignment and leg length
• Observe gait for hip-hiking



🛠️ Physiotherapy Management:

1. Pain Relief
• Modalities:
• TENS
• Heat packs
• Ultrasound (for deep muscle relaxation)

2. Soft Tissue Techniques
• Myofascial release
• Trigger point therapy
• Dry needling (if trained and allowed in your region)

3. Stretching Exercises
• QL Stretch (side bend over to opposite side)
• Cat-cow stretch
• Child’s pose with side reach
• Supine knee-to-chest (unilateral)

4. Strengthening Exercises
• Side planks
• Bird-dog
• Pelvic tilts
• Glute bridges (with focus on core activation)

5. Postural Education
• Ergonomic advice
• Sitting posture correction
• Avoid prolonged static positions

6. Address Underlying Causes
• Leg length discrepancy → use heel lift if needed
• SI joint dysfunction → treat concurrently
• Core weakness → introduce core stabilization



🔄 Recovery Timeline:
• Acute phase: 1–2 weeks for pain control
• Subacute: 2–4 weeks for mobility and posture correction
• Chronic cases: May take 6+ weeks with ongoing postural re-education

Sciatica is pain that radiates along the sciatic nerve, which runs from the lower back through the hips and buttocks down each leg. It typically affects one side of the body.

Causes of Sciatica:
• Herniated disc (most common)
• Spinal stenosis
• Degenerative disc disease
• Spondylolisthesis
• Piriformis syndrome
• Trauma or injury
• Pregnancy-related changes

Symptoms:
• Sharp or shooting pain in the lower back, buttock, and leg
• Tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness in the leg or foot
• Pain worsens with sitting, coughing, sneezing, or bending
• Burning or electric-shock-like pain

Physiotherapy Treatment for Sciatica:

1. Pain Relief Techniques:
• Hot or cold packs
• TENS therapy (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation)
• Ultrasound therapy

2. Stretching Exercises:
• Piriformis stretch
• Hamstring stretch
• Knee-to-chest stretch

3. Strengthening Exercises:
• Core strengthening
• Pelvic tilts
• Glute bridges

4. Postural Training:
• Correcting posture while sitting, standing, and lifting
• Ergonomic advice for work and daily activities

5. Manual Therapy:
• Soft tissue mobilization
• Joint mobilization for lumbar spine and sacroiliac joint

6. Neural Mobilization:
• Sciatic nerve glides to reduce neural tension

                                                            Hip strengthening exercises can improve stability, mobility,...
