The Anatomical Position
 Anatomical position: Anatomists and
physiologists view the human body in
this standard starting point
 Body in an upright standing position
 Face and feet pointing forward
 Arms at side and forearms fully
supinated (palms facing forward)
Anatomical Planes
 Anatomical Planes relate to positions in
space and are at right angles to one
another:
 Transverse plane:
 Divides the body into superior and
inferior segments
 Sometimes referred to as a crosssectional view
 Sagittal plane:
 Divides the body into right and left
segments can be (millions of
sagittal planes are possible)
 Mid-sagittal plane – divides the
body into two perfect halves at the
mid-line
 Frontal (coronal) plane:
 Divides the body into anterior and
posterior segments
Anatomical Axes
 Anatomical Axes are used to describe the
direction of movement at joints:
 Longitudinal (polar) axis:
 In a “north-south” relationship to
the anatomical position
 Horizontal (bilateral) axis:
 In an “east-west” relationship to
the anatomical position
 Antero-posterior axis:
 In a “front-to-back” relationship to
the anatomical position
Basic Movements Involving a Joint
Flexion - Extension
 Flexion: decreasing the angle
between two bones
 Extension: increasing the angle
between two bones
Basic Movements Involving a Joint
Abduction – Adduction – Lateral Flexion
 Abduction: moving away from
the midline
 Adduction: moving towards the
midline
 Lateral Flexion: moving the
spine or neck away from the
midline (also sometimes called
abduction)
Basic Movements Involving a Joint
Rotation - Internal Rotation - External Rotation
 Internal rotation: rotating
inward towards the midline (also
called medial rotation)
 External rotation: rotating
outward away from the midline
(also called lateral rotation)
 Rotation: moving a part around
an axis
Basic Movements Involving a Joint
Circumduction

Circumduction: circular
motion (combination of
flexion, extension, abduction
and adduction)
Basic Movements Involving a Joint
Supination - Pronation
 Supination: lateral rotation of
the hand and forearm
 Pronation: medial rotation of
the hand and forearm
Basic Movements Involving a Joint
Protraction - Retraction
 Protraction: moving in a
forward (anterior) position
 Retraction: moving in a
backward (posterior) position
Basic Movements Involving a Joint
Dorsiflexion - Plantar Flexion
 Dorsiflexion: pointing the foot
upward
 Plantar flexion: pointing the
foot downward
Basic Movements Involving a Joint
Opposition and Reposition
Opposition: moving thumb
toward the fingers
Reposition: returning thumb
back to anatomical position
Basic Movements Involving a Joint
Depression - Elevation
Depression: lowering a part
Elevation: raising a part
Basic Movements Involving a Joint
Inversion - Eversion
Inversion: moving the sole of the foot
toward the median plane
Eversion: moving the sole of the foot away
from the median plane
Inversion
In terms of RUNNING:
Some salespeople will refer to the “gait” or running
pattern using the following terms:
Pronation = dorsiflexion + abduction + eversion
Supination = plantarflexion + adduction + inversion
Describing Position and Movement
 Anterior: front surface of the body
 Posterior: back surface of the body
 Superior: refers to structures being closer





to the top of the body (excluding limbs)
Inferior: refers to structures being closer to
the lower part of the body (excluding limbs)
Medial: towards the midline or mid-sagittal
Lateral: away from the midline or midsagittal
Proximal: towards the upper segment of a
limb
Distal: towards the lower segment of a limb
Other Terms: (these aren’t in your workbook!)
Deep - away from the surface/further into the body
Superficial – on the surface or shallow
Supine – lying with the back surface downward (face-up)
Prone – with the front surface downward (face-down)

Finding Axes and Planes
 Axis of rotation is always
perpendicular to the plane of
movement
 In the anatomical position: all
flexion/extension occurs in the sagittal
plane, all abduction/adduction occurs
in the frontal plane, and all rotation
occurs in the transverse plane
 More involved movements usually
occur as a combination of motions
from more than one plane
Longitudinal Axis
