i think the best will be show the concern first then talk about importance of doing the tests and all
and proceed plz correct me if i am wrong

first ask the patient to do active ROM, if the ROM
then move on to MOTOR REFLEX SENSORY PULSES

whats happening?? words don't get published after ROM......
IWILL TRY ONCE AGAIN if the ROM is less than normal for that joint then progress to do passive ROM

do not forget to explore the NOT PAINFUL one first to do a comparative analysiss of the join
Make the pt move the joint in a mirror sequence: Yo tell the patient to mimic whhat u are doping and to tell u if he has pain....then you do flexion, extension, suppination, pronation, abducion, aduction. Then you ask permision to move pasively and explain that u are going to do nice and soft Complete with sensory, relfexes, pulses If arm or leg is painful YOU HAVE TO touch Neri and Vallix points in spine

Vertebral painful point
1. Pressure spinous ap. 2. pressure the interspinous spaces 3. pressure over transverse ap. You touch with your tumb making light pressure over the medial aspect of the spina and go sliding down, the you do the same maneuver laterally In case of arm involvment do it in cervical region In case of leg involvemtn do it in lumbo-sacral region

let me summarize if I understand we ask the sp to do active ROM if it s painful sould we do the passive ROM or not ???or we do not ??
