Hi, I have graduated from Podiatry two years ago. However, there are many things that I seem to do ritually, that I have forgotten WHY it works :confused: :D

For example, today I was assessing a new patient's reflexes and when I saw no knee extension, I immediately told her to clench her hands together and pull as hard as she could in the opposite direction. This time, the reflex was noticeable. It wasn't until later that I questioned myself and asked, "Why is the reflex better when gripping your hands?" Could anyone refresh my memory?
Thanks in advance. :)
