- Bracing denotes an extreme state of increased muscular tonus (hypertonicity).
- Releasing denotes an extreme state of decreased muscular tonus (hypotonicity). Muscles act in chains, not independently. Thus a tonicity change in a specific muscle reflects a tonicity change in the entire chain.
- The contour (shape) of the inner longitudinal arch reflects the tonus pattern within the posterior chain of muscles. The posterior and anterior chains interact in a reciprocating fashion. That is, when the posterior chain is braced, the anterior chain is released. When the posterior chain is released, the anterior chain is braced.
