🦵 What Are Lower Motor Neuron Tests?
Ever wondered what that knee-jerk reflex really tells us? 👇
💥 Tendon Tap (Stimulus) A quick tap on the patellar tendon stretches the quad muscle.
🧠 Ia Afferent Sensory Neuron (PNS) Stretch detected ➝ Signal sent to the spinal cord via the dorsal root.
🔁 Synapse in Spinal Cord (CNS) At L2–L4, the sensory neuron forms a monosynaptic reflex arc—no delay, just action.
⚡ Alpha Motor Neuron (Efferent - PNS) Motor signal exits through the ventral root ➝ causes the quad to contract = that classic reflex kick.
🧬 How ANF Methodology Enhances Clinical Testing: ANF Therapy®️ aligns with neurobiochemical signaling, helping you assess not just symptoms—but root dysfunctions.
If you're still only treating surface symptoms, you're missing the full picture.
