No, abduction and adduction can refer to movements of both the appendicular and axial skeleton. Abduction is movement away from the midline of the body, while adduction is movement towards the midline. These terms are commonly used to describe various movements in anatomy, including those of the limbs as well as the spine.
In my research. Abduction, in functional anatomy, is a movement which draws a limb away from the median (Sagittal) plane of the body. It is thus opposed to adduction.
Starting from the anatomical position, abduction indicates the movement of an arm or leg away from the midline or midsagittal plane. Adduction indicates movement of an extremity toward the midline.
the antagonist of adduction is the pectoralis major
