Types of joints movements:

Flexion: Bending parts at a joint so that the angle between them decreases and the parts come closer together (bending the lower limb at the knee).

Extension: Straightening parts at a joint so that the angle between them increases and the parts move farther apart (straightening the lower limb at the knee).

Hyperextension: Excess extension of the parts at a joint, beyond the anatomical position (bending the head back beyond the upright position).

Dorsiflexion: Bending the foot at the ankle toward the shin (bending the foot upward).

Plantar flexion: Bending the foot at the ankle toward the sole (bending the foot downward).

Abduction: Moving a part away from the midline (lifting the upper limb horizontally to form a right angle with he side of the body).

Adduction: Moving a part toward the midline (returning the upper limb from the horizontal position to the side of the body).

Rotation: Moving a part around an axis (twisting the head from side to side). Medial rotation involves movement toward the midline, whereas lateral rotation involves movement in the opposite direction.

Circumduction: Moving a part so that its end follows a circular path (moving the finger in a circular motion without moving the hand).

Supination: Turning the hand so the palm is upward or facing anteriorly (in anatomical position).
