Myofascial sequence example

Anatomical continuity of the myofascial sequence on the sagittal plane of

the lower limb – producing antemotion talus (dorsiflexion of the foot) –

include the following: tibialis anterior, extensor digitorum longus, extensor

halluces longus.

The antemotion sequence continues proximally, connecting the quadriceps

tendon, intermuscular septa of the vastus medialis and lateralis, sartorius

(knee antemotion), fascia lata, iliopsoas/iliopsoas fascia (hip antemotion),

iliacus, psoas minor, inferior rectus abdominis (pelvis antemotion).

The inferior rectus abdominis is surrounded by the lateral raphe which

connects the abdominal muscles to the middle and posterior layers of the

thoracolumbar fascia. The anterior continuity and connection between the

abdominal muscles and thoracolumbar fascia presents a hypothesis for the

connection between ankle and knee dysfunction and low back

pain/dysfunction. (adapted from Stecco & Stecco 2009)
