PRONATION-WHAT IS IT?

PRONATION-WHAT IS IT?

I get to lecture in front of hundreds of doctors and ask a question that I know a great majority can't answer well technically. "WHAT IS PRONATION?". Most doctors think they know the answer and I'm sure think this can't be that difficult. Doctors are held to a higher standard and the public expects that standard to be high and yet many doctors are pretending to know something about gait when it comes down to it. See if your doctor knows this definition;

PRONATION- is three plane lines of motion, Dorsiflexion, Abduction and Eversion. It is the primary shock absorber of the body.

We should also be responsible for the true definition of supination....after your post here, it should be obvious to all.
