PY - 2013 T2 - Diagnosis for Physical Therapists: A Symptom-Based Approach AB - The chapter describes pathology that may lead to "abnormal movement." Because abnormal movement is associated with a wide spectrum of movement abnormalities, it is most appropriate to first describe normal movement. Normal movement is characterized as accurate/precise, coordinated, smooth, effortless, and purposeful/intentional. Additionally, normal movement is manifested as a countless variety of possible movements. Simply stated, abnormal movement then is any movement that lacks any or all of those characteristics.
