Question 5 of 30

5. Question

Question 6 of 30

6. Question
6. Which of the following is an example of how fascia injuries may contribute to chronic pelvic pain?
- Fascia injuries can lead to restricted movement patterns and adhesions, increasing muscle tension and exacerbating pain in the pelvic floor.
- Fascia injuries enhance proprioception in the pelvic region, reducing pain perception by improving sensory input.
- Fascia injuries stimulate the autonomic nervous system, causing improved relaxation and reduced discomfort in the pelvic region.
- Fascia injuries facilitate the development of scar tissue, which promotes healing and decreases long-term pain in the pelvic floor.
Correct

Incorrect
Question 7 of 30

7. Question
7. What effect does prolonged sympathetic nervous system activation (stress) have on the autonomic nervous system’s balance?
- It enhances parasympathetic dominance, allowing for faster recovery of injured tissues
- It increases sympathetic dominance, impairing healing processes and contributing to persistent pain and dysfunction
- It temporarily blocks sympathetic responses, allowing for immediate relief of pelvic pain
- It has no effect on autonomic balance, as the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems remain unaffected
Correct

Incorrect

Correct

Incorrect
Question 10 of 30

10. Question
10. In which of the following ways does microcurrent therapy support pelvic floor rehabilitation?

- Stimulating the adrenal glands to promote energy and stamina
Correct

Incorrect
Question 12 of 30

12. Question
12. What is the purpose of treating the Sacrum before managing the spine in MPS therapy?
- To enhance the function of the parasympathetic nervous system
- To decompress and align the sacrum, facilitating control of both the CNS and ANS
- To promote the release of stress hormones from the adrenal glands
- To stimulate deep relaxation in the pelvic muscles
Correct

Incorrect

Correct

Incorrect
Question 15 of 30

15. Question
15. What is a common cause of sacral radiculopathy that can lead to compression or irritation of the sacral nerve roots?
- Chronic muscle spasms
- Spinal stenosis
- Increased acetylcholine (ACH) production
- Overactive sympathetic nervous system
Correct

Incorrect
Question 16 of 30

16. Question
16. What is the primary function of the sacrum in relation to the pelvis and spinal column?
- Facilitates the attachment of the spine to the brain
- Regulates body temperature
- Acts as a connector between the pelvis and spinal column, providing stability for bipedal walking
- Stores fat for energy reserves
Correct

Incorrect
