For OM/CMT, what two elements are recorded?

• A. Muscle and technique
• B. Body region and CMT delivered
• C. Treatment time and location
• D. Exercise type

Answer: (B)

Documenting OM/CMT centers on two pieces of information: the body region treated and the specific manual therapy used. Recording the body region (for example, thoracic spine, lumbar-pelvic area, or a targeted joint) shows exactly where the manipulation was applied. Recording the CMT delivered identifies the technique used (such as HVLA thrust, mobilization, soft-tissue therapy, or muscle-energy techniques). This pairing provides clear clinical communication and accurate coding, ensuring the treatment is traceable and reproducible. Other options focus on muscles, time, or exercise type, which don’t capture the essential combination of location and technique that OM/CMT notes require.
