The muscle palpation exam that I do during all of my initial evaluations is so incredibly important!  I cannot stress the importance of this enough!  Please watch the linked video to see in detail how I do this examination.  The PDF form for the exam is linked below as well. So please feel free to print it and include it in your records for each patient.
