What does inhibited mean? The neural input to a muscle is lowered .The muscle still works but it’s not as efficient to generate power. To generate power during movement. Therefore it appears weak!! The body finds balance to complete movement task but unfortunately it finds another way for muscle in the movement pattern to do […]
Before reading this article click on introduction to core subsystem Structures are involved : Latissimus dorsi, Thoracolumbar fascia, Gluteus maximus Superior portion or gluteus medius. Function (Brief): IT stabilize the posterior kinetic chain Which including lumbar spine and sacroiliac joint. It transfers the force between us upper extremity and lower extremities eventually, integrated pulling movement of […]
The Anterior Oblique Subsystem (AOS) is comprised of: External ObliquesAbdominal Fascia/Linea AlbaContralateral Anterior AdductorsInternal ObliquesRectus Abdominis Function (Brief): Stabilization of the anterior kinetic chain Which including the joints of the pubic symphysis, hip, and lumbar spine. It transfer force between lower and upper extremities. Functional Arthrokinetic: The Anterior Oblique Subsystem plays very important for stabilizing […]
What is core ? It is a muscular box with the abdominals in the front, paraspinals and gluteals in the rear, the diaphragm at the top, and the pelvic floor and hip girdle musculature at the bottom. Within the “box” multiple muscles help to stabilize thespine and pelvis as well as transmit forces through the […]
Plantar fasciitis (PF) is the most common foot condition treated by health care providers.This painful condition can cause impairment of activity and disability.Patients usually report pain after palpation of the proximal insertion of the plantar fascia and plantar medial heel, and the pain is most noticeable when patients begin walking after a period of inactivity.Clinicians […]
Plantar Fascia is a broad, dense band originating from anterior aspect of calcaneal tuberosity in form of 3 bands namely medial, central and lateral and inserting after dividing into 5 digital bands at metatarsophalangeal joints. It plays vital role in supporting the arch of foot and act as a shock absorber. Plantar Fasciitis is an […]
Read part 1 if you have missed……. What can be the different diagnosis? 1 )Sciatic nerve entrapment2)Gluteus trigger point3) Trochetric bursitis4) Piriformis syndrome Here we have explained about trochentric bursitis between gluteal nerve affection relationships: When a patient preset a complaint of pain while lying on one side , the therapist should suspect trochanteric bursitis. […]
In the early 20th century the SI joint was thought to be the main source of law back pain and was the focus of many scientific investigations. But recently two newest theories have been developed. First, the theory of rotational malalignment known today as the Malalignment Syndrome which includes: SI joint upslip/downslip (superior/inferior shear), sacral torsion […]
What is Synergistic dominance ? It is a self-serving substitution system that allows us to carry on life even though parts of our structure . It may be slowly breaking down and decompensating. A typical synergistic pattern often exists in runners with a unilaterally tight/hypertonic iliopsoas that is reciprocally inhibiting the ipsilateral gluteus maximus. The […]
